We've put a new poll up today in the sidebar!
Who be the the 2010 ASBK champion??? Post your vote and then tell us why here…
We only have space for four riders, however there are more in the mix that could potentially win it including Johnson, Giles, Budgen and more.
The way I selected the four is that Stauffer, Allerton and Waters are the most recent champions, while Maxwell was right in with a shot at it until his massive off last year at the season finale.
Get voting!

Plenty of votes so far, not much about about why you guys voted for your favourites…. come onnnn lol.
DOOVA930 11:18 pm February 2nd 2010
I picked Josh Waters because I’ve got no idea and took a wild guess!!!
I would have picked the BONER if he was on the list LOL
Mach24 12:21 am February 3rd 2010
Josh coz he did it last year under extreme pressure and it looks like the competition is a bit thinner in '10 (mind you, if Giles and Buggers did not slow to let him get points at Malalla last year he would not have won the No 1 plate).
Both Honda boys will be strong, but will they be as strong as '09?
I reckon Jamie will be hot and cold as the bike will be under development most of the season, but the Duke may just look after it rubber well. I reckon he will win races, but not the championship.
I expect Dan to be somwhere deep behind these guy on the Aprillia with Cocko just infront of him on the BMW (TBC)
The big question mark for me is SJ of the KTM, are they for real or just another pretender?
circuit1 7:58 am February 3rd 2010
Josh Waters for sure with Staufer 2nd, Josh is on the same bike with the same team only difference is the tires.
The boy is young and keen.
Can’t wait to see if I am correct or not.
keenathaneva 9:15 am February 3rd 2010
Waters or giles as tainton has had extra time to set the suzuki’s up to the new tyres and rules to keep the gsx-r at the top of the speed traps,its not what u know any more.Wonder who will b the first to bark when the ducati’s deliver the goods?
L2R 9:36 am February 3rd 2010
I voted allerton. but all will be on pace at PI, ducs will be quick but the question is will paul free be able to have the bike even start before a race, happened a few times last year didnt it. dont rule out SJ either, wow what a performance last round from him
BONE 9:56 am February 3rd 2010
hahaha. the BONE don’t race. The bone Flies through the sky like no other guy.
BONE watches ASBK fromt he sidelines and tunes the grid girls and offers them a freestyle rap and asks em if they wanna share a tinnie or two.
Jason.A 10:01 am February 3rd 2010
I voted Glenn ,he is on familier machinery and he has freedom to set the bike up the way he wants it.He will be more determined than ever to get the no 1 plate back.The bike certianly wont suffer any electrical fault to hold him back.I am sure Josh will be up there aswell but it is alot harder defending than winning. I think Jamie will struggle on the ducati ,unless the bike is perfect he will continue with his poor form from last year……..This year will be great and hopefully next year the rest of the japs will get back onboard.
Alex Gobert 10:35 am February 3rd 2010
There are a lot of votes for Jamie so far! 37% at this stage…
oggies 8:24 pm February 3rd 2010
Ive cranked up the crystal ball and……….I’ll tip Waters to double up this year and then head overseas next year. Allerton to show how privateers do it (again!!) by coming a close 2nd (only to be asked again to join a factory effort in 2011)…. just in front of Maxwell on the Winzer rocket……..while YRT collect the trophies somewhere else!!!!!!
Oh….. and BONE wins best overall contribution to AG’s growing forum
penrepine 8:52 pm February 3rd 2010
Jamie to win!
GO THE DUCK
BONE 9:32 pm February 3rd 2010
Best for quality and quantity. Thats probably the only thing i’ll ever win in my life ever! outside of the freestyle rap scene.
baum chicka boom!
circuit1 10:09 am February 4th 2010
The only problem I see with the duck are the inlets ducts on he fairing are pretty small, I was having a good look at them the other day, this may hurt there top end a bit. Might make them feel like a Yamaha……………..:)
At this level you can give away a thing.
My $0.02c
Alex Gobert 11:13 am February 4th 2010
Waters has taken a slim lead in the poll at 33% ahead of Stauffer’s 31%!
penrepine 5:12 pm February 4th 2010
bit of massive attack there Boner boy!
Hey circuit1, that is another candidate for the "say what" section hehe
circuit1 7:34 am February 5th 2010
penerpine, Me no understand ????????????? ” Wot the”
Please explain………..
mickyd 1:08 pm February 5th 2010
dont rule dan out yet……the new aprilias are a sweet ride. he also has a piont to prove after not his best year, on a bike that didnt perform so well in 2009
dan has teamed up with his old boss steve trinder, and between them i think they can do very well
Alex Gobert 2:06 pm February 5th 2010
Can’t wait to see the RSV4s in action…. first test coming at the Island this month???
TDP020 6:20 pm February 5th 2010
I wonder if they can do a whole ride day on a single engine……..????
penrepine 10:46 pm February 5th 2010
sorry Circuit1, Ali G has an area on the main page called say what.
He puts funny statements in it.
penrepine 10:59 pm February 5th 2010
if I just read right, Staring could be champ!
Alex Gobert 11:23 pm February 5th 2010
This has been rumoured for a number of days now, however I hadn’t yet broken the news. Now that it’s public knowledge, here is what we know: http://www.motoonline.com.au/2010/02/05/asbk-staring-to-make-dramatic-return-to-honda-and-asbk
mickyd 1:20 pm February 6th 2010
aprilias will be at the island for 15th-16th test
TDP020…..the aprilias supplied are not part of the recalled numbers……Aprilia are replacing all (complete) engines in the limited number of bikes effected by a outside suppliers faulty parts. they will be fast at the island. Test days have been run at QLD with absolutely no problems
TDP020 3:33 pm February 6th 2010
Mickyd, I'm just poking fun mate. LOVE the Aprilia!! Wish I could justify having one as a track bike……………
Look forward to seeing them on the 15th!
LauraA 12:53 pm February 7th 2010
Allerton will get that number 1 plate again
SHIRMAT 2:53 pm February 8th 2010
Allerton will win, you know why, because he resists temptation, remains loyal to Honda despite moving from a factory ride or be it a satelitte team. And further, the guy shows huge commitment despite the odds.
penrepine 10:11 pm February 8th 2010
NO WAY Shirmat, Jamie will smoke em like a Cuban
coolstunts45 10:19 pm February 8th 2010
hmmm, they are all very good. will be interesting to see who takes the plate.
penrepine 10:20 pm February 8th 2010
maybe you coolstunts45?
penrepine 10:40 pm February 8th 2010
wow its so quiet,…..come on people lets get excited!!!!
Alex Gobert 11:50 pm February 8th 2010
The community is picking up pretty good around here Pen, but we all know that you and the Bone are the originals lol. Speaking of the Bone, he really goes quiet around ASBK testing time - must be some FMX events on at the same time!
BONE 10:15 am February 9th 2010
WTF are you talking about Hoe-bert? BONE is ALWAYS reppin. there’s nothing going on with ASBK at the moment anyways? no one is testing… actually the bone did hear that Disco stu AKA scottie charlton and ‘oh my gosh, is that josh’ Waters were doin some testing yesterday…
i have been busy building me new ramp with me mate jacko n nev. the for sale sign we are usin as the blank should be sturdy enuff. I am preparing to make some sweet vids for when me profile gets us n running on Motoonline. Speaking of that ho-mo-Go, when is that all happening? i have been practising my sweet tricks ready to film them and laid off the darts for one whole week now cause i want to be able to do all my tricks in one filming without needing a durry break half way through.. it wouldnt look very pro of me now would it!
penrepine 3:57 pm February 9th 2010
LOL Boner,
Hey does Disco Stu have some gold fish in his platform boots.
Hey I should have a signature like “Penny,……the original.
MOTALIA 5:07 am February 10th 2010
Jamie of course! The only rider on a motorcycle. All the others are riding household appliances…!!
Alex Gobert 10:09 am February 10th 2010
Haha thanks for the input Motalia - Ducati fan I take it???
coolstunts45 10:38 pm February 10th 2010
hahaha rad words motalia, all this talk about boots makes me think of “old greg” dancin round in his squishy boots.
BONE 2:35 pm February 11th 2010
