    My tip for the 2015 title.. The most talented rider in the paddock. Hate to say it but the blade has held him back even tho he's had plenty of victories. He already looks like it's his bike and he's going quicker than Sykes.. Fair play to him. Nice guy and throughly deserves his ride

    Got to agree with you. Used to see him regular in BSB and he always had time to talk to race fans.

    Yeah I would have to agree too, the blade was not the fastest bike and yet he still managed some wins, so on the ZX10 he should do even better, should be good to watch :)

    btw I'd change the title, Johnny will be well over 100 by then ;)

    I think this is worth putting some cash on, I just can't see where the competition is coming from now that the Aprilia's are gone.

    Hopefuly Chaz can get a few wins on Duke but nothing else is up to the job all year.

    I wouldn't put it past Haslem on the RSV4 or Sykes on the ZX10 but I think it's going to be a close year of racing again.

    I just hope it comes down to the best rider rather than who's got the team mate that follows team orders.

    Haslam is a good shout. Great rider that sneaks under the radar. We have a great year to look forward to next year

    There is limited factory support for the Aprilia Leon will be on, I fear its another season in the shadows for him....

    MVDM might spring a surprise here and there, Talent boy but he will throw it down the road a fair bit too!

    Wouldnt be so sure. Most of the gadgets will need ripped off for superbike electronics rules so itll need to be a good handling chassis. All the bling upgrades go in the bin in favour for full blown superbike parts so itll be a mix of the rider, engine characteristic, luck and good fortune that will decide it. Hard to think kiyo and shakey will be letting anyone walk over them without a fight :)

    Next years Beemer with Kiyo on board will take some beating.

    The ZX10 will have to have some serious upgrades as it's getting on a bit now with no major revisions since the 2011 launch.

    Josh Brookes could be very dangerous on the new R1, He was there and there about this season and had real issues with power delivery in comparison to Shakey's ZX & Kiyo's Beemer.

    Should be a cracking year.

    BSB and WSB are looking good for next season. WSB has a few potentials , Rea ,Sykes ,Haslam and I really hope Lowes goes well although the Suzuki defo not the best bike out there. BSB same really , Shakey , Brooke's ,Kiyo all capable of clearing off within a lap or two and leaving the rest to fight it out. Roll on next year.
