Team Honda wins
three: Fred Merkel at
Laguna Seca, California; Ricky Graham at
Springfield, fllinois; David Bailey at Binghamton, New
York. In the big leagues, the name of the game is hardball.
And last weekend Tham Honda was throwing some pretty ." ~
mean stuff
/"

In fact, the competition went down on three
straight strikes.
At Laguna Seca, we threw them a fast one.
Fred Merkel, aboard his liquid-cooled V45
Interceptor.no Strike One.
At Springfield, we used a slider. Ricky
Graham, to be exact, keeping his RS750
low and inside. Strike Two.
","">. At Binghamton, we needed
';r,\~,,¥~ something that would just
'.;;;., graze the corners. That's when we called in David Bailey on his
," '~~... , . Pro-Link™equipped RC50o. David's perfect control won him
.";~: '. his eighth consecutive outdoor national
Strike Three. Game over.
Of course, winning isn't everything. It's how you play
, "~~",, , the game. Fred, Ricky and David all play to win.
Which is why they insist on the same Honda technology that goes into every Honda we make.
You should, too. Because playing with
anything else is minor league.
