http://www.onthethrottle.tv Take a hot lap with Mat Mladin aboard his 2008 GSX-R1000 American Superbike around Road Atlanta during the Suzuki Superbike Showdown
i respect mladin as a talented racer by why did he choose to spend years winning ama races by 30 seconds instead of stepping up as hayden,spies,edwards,and hopkins did (just to name a few)? i know he raced 500cc world championship in 93 and decided his privateer team and ride wasnt competitive enough to win. surely he had plenty of offers on the table especially wsbk.. without spies in 06,07,08 he had zero comp on track,whats fun about that? just curious,thought someone might know why
Great footage. Crazy to see such a mellow guy ride the crap out of the best superbike AMA will allow. Matt is the man and always will be a great champion.
Suzuki is a huge promoter of ama superbike etc. Look at the races Mladin wins. Look at the distance he wins by. You're an idiot if you think this bike is legal. Im not saying he can't ride but, go Mat, your such a rider. World? GP? Anyone he races would win on his bike. haha
I didnt see any hds lumbering around either, GSX-Rs rule the world!

Now that's a great video. I want more of those. Please don't include any kind of soundtrack. Then engine, wind noise and all the rest is just fine.
Thanks
