All these guys would probably have something to say about your comment.
All of them are 3x champs on the small bike. None of them were considered "best ever" until they moved up to the premier class and won championships there.

Again, this is just a discussion, if you are starting to get worked up, take a break, get a beer.
How would Webb,Martin,Savatry, Forkner,Cinciarullo fare against the guy in Europe? It works both ways which some can't seem to grasp,the out and out fastest rider of a generation,Villopoto showed that in his GP campain.
He said "most dominate" which cannot mean anything else that beeing very much faster than the current competition. And he usually wins by a huge margin, week in and week out. If you have trouble understanding the word dominate or domination, check some races up and it will become obvious to you.
And what i see is that the american fans always take the underdog position, because they always compare their top rider vs herlings. Now its coop, back then it was martin or musquin...forkner comes along with it...
And you guys who are negative about herlings...wonder whats happening when 'cooper' is racing against herlings in what shall i say...valkenswaard. doesn't have to be lommel
Pit Row
Been watching people argue back and forth the past twp weeks about who's better than who, but Charlotte was just one individual race. Jeffery handled the first moto straight up and nobody can argue that fact no matter what side of the pond you hail from.
2nd moto, he had the gearbox stuck in 3rd gear, to my foggy recollection. But, perhaps that happened in the moto pictured above?
Seriously, grown men - which is largely who we have here ? - continually bleating on about riders, is beyond silly.
It seems one week, a rider is a 'squid' (or his bike is a dog), next week he's the second coming of Hey Zeus.
All these blokes are just fast motorcycle riders. Most, with enormous egos - it's something that is common with people who achieve things within their chosen pursuits.
Herlings proved his worth to KTM a long time ago. His employer. A few here might recall Pit Beirer saying recently he was on the level of Dungey and Cairoli - I'd say he's been paid at their level, for a fair few years now.
Frankly, I was much more impressed by what I heard in interviews and read in print from him. I think his newfound maturity and humility has converted many like myself and has gone a long way toward making himself more fans. When you look at people like Tony & Jill Cairoli, and a few others it shows that you can be humble and down to earth and still be a champion. Glad that Jeremy is finding that balance, or seems to be at any rate.
