That is why Millsaps and other heavier riders don't have a problem with the bike. Meanwhile, Stewie is being paid to go out and win RACES, let alone WIN a CHAMPIONSHIP on a bike that is junk (in Stewies case, not necessarily that JGR makes a bad bike).
Those who possess strength have also known adversity.
Indeed he looks faster but it has been a long time since he rode outdoors right what was the last year 07,08? He tried in 10' but couldn't ride the full 30min +2 in the second moto because he was to tired
Heres a more up to date video. Has footage of him riding the stock suzuki with the black frame that he bought in september and new footage of him riding the Factory Yoshimura suzuki.
This is definitely worth a listen. Its pretty long at 33 minutes but just listen to it while you're doing something else. It's basically Stewart talking about the whole deal with leaving JGR and going to suzuki.
It turns out Stewart signed with JGR under the impression that the team was going to be on suzuki. JGR ended up having to sign a deal with Yamaha after Stewart had already signed with JGR.
Also Stewarts contract with Yoshimura Suzuki doesnt officially start until January 2013 and he isnt getting paid for racing outdoors this year.
