From a press release issued by Ben Bostrom’s publicist after a three-day Dunlop-teams-only test which concluded at Laguna Seca Raceway yesterday:

Ben Bostrom completed a preseason test at Laguna Seca today, cutting laps on his new Honda Superbike. “We fought some serious rain for the first couple of days, but finally got some dry time. The bike was fantastic. Once again, I am just in awe of this machine, it’s unreal. We did 26 flats and I know there is another half a second there. The bike is that good.”

The new Honda Superbike has Ben rejuvenated and poised to make waves in 2004. “I’m more enthused now than I’ve ever been. Every time I get on the bike, it makes me feel like a kid again. It makes me feel like I never road raced before and puts a smile back on my face.”
