Lindgren looks good on GTR engine I think more riders will try it now and not just on practice. Jason Doyle maybe? Heard he is testing GTR as well

As Philip suggests riders seem to go for what looks like a winner and Freddie is doing a good bit of PR for the GTR at the moment. And noticably, Bomber, who is not using it now, isn't.

Last season it looked to me as though he had improved his gating on the GTR. Whether that was in the mind or because of the engine who knows?

DOYLE has been testing a GTR but requires a very different set-up to Lindgren ... different riding styles, preferences, etc. Janowski has also been testing one.

 

Meanwhile, the PJR GMs continue to reign supreme.

Hard to say with Bomber he should go back on GTR now it would be interesting to see the difference. Surely it can't get any worse..

Doyle did good on Bomer testimonial witch he won on GTR but yeah GP is another story...

NOT sure he can afford to change. Now only racing in Britain so his earnings will have been severely curtailed.

 

could say it's a situation all of his own making though.

last season when GTR were pushing him to use it more he wouldn't so it's no surprise when they stopped working with him.

Could this thread be opened up to General discussions because no one is using a Jawa in the GP series but I'd like to know if the Jawa engine makes the bike more difficult to control than the GM.

Jawa makes their own "heads" on factory but GM comes as kit when tuners make the them flow as they like... maybe there is the difference. what i"ve heard Jawas are easyer to handle but not as fast. (Dont ask me why?) Dont know if thats the case nowadays, but it was few years ago.

Peter Ljung is insinuating that allot of riders cheat with their equipment in the leagues while the same riders only manage "normal" performances in the GP.

Since in the GPs engines/equipment are closely scrutinised but in Poland/Sweden nobody seems to bother.

I presume he means carburettors with carbys?

What rider is he pointing a finger at ? Must be a rider who has not performed well in any world championship before, is out the top 8 in 2016 but has good league form. Leaves two possible riders. Work it out for yourself.
