Exellent, remember Lavilla getting sideways on the Parabolica on the Gixer 1000? Before crappy traction control, every lap he was doing it, Whitam was going mad on the commentary.

Should have been giving a top bike back then!

Not when he was first in WSB with Kawasaki. Lots of people said he was lucky to get his contract renewed.

Seems to have learnt to ride since then

Cracking news.

Not so sure if Birdy and a Mediterranean temperament will be the best mix?

Looks like a switch to Pirelli might also be a test if Kyo's testing is anything to go by.
