Wayne Gardner tests Superbikes at Portimao

Wayne Gardner, the 1987 500cc World Champion and four time winner of the Suzuka 8 Hours and motorcycle icon of the ’80’s alongside the likes of Kevin Schwantz, Eddie Lawson and Wayne Rainey, got to try seven different Superbikes marques at the Portimao track.
Gardner who turned fifty October 11th, gave his first impressions to Italian website GPone.

What did you think about these bikes?“Each of them has a different personality and most of all the characteristics are very particular.
I was impressed by the Yamaha which was very difficult to ride: my compliments to Ben Spies that brought it to victory, he did a great job.
I was also impressed by the BMW’s, while the Kawasaki is the one that has the most potential.
On this circuit, I had fun on the Ducati, it seemed made for those up and down hills that remind me very much of the English tracks, like Brands Hatch.
