Toseland and Charpentier try out Hayden's Honda
Well yes James Toseland has got to ride a MotoGP bike. He was invited by Honda HRC to ride Nicky Hayden's MotoGP bike on Monday this week after the Valencia race, along with World Supersport Champion Sebastien Charpentier, both of Team Winston Honda Ten Kate.
However James Toseland has made it be know he wishes to ride in MotoGP and when I was at the Honda Press Conference last Thursday at the International Motorcycle and Scooter Show at the Birmingham NEC, he again reiterated his desire to ride in MotoGP. He suggested in part, his remaining in the World Superbike Championship this year is because neogitaions for team places in World Superbikes are carried out earlier in the year than MotoGP.
So whilst I'm sure many of us will be delighted to continue to see James Toseland compete in the World Superbike Championship for 2007, it could be his last year in this Championship before a move up to Moto GP in 2008.
Ride safe!
