He's said that about every bike that he's been on. It probably just means that he thinks that the bike can be improved. Either that, or it actually broke during the race. Some would say that it is "bad mouthing this or that," but he most likely just wants to make it better...and knows that he can go faster with some adjustments. After all, the guy does have a lifetime of testing and setup on race bikes...I wouldn't read too much into it. Just my 2.

The guys biggest asset as well as weakness is that he can be brutally honest and that sometimes goes over bad with the masses.

Who says he is not tlaking about his own team? That is how I took it... Maybe they had missed something during packing the truck?? Again I don't think he was bashing the bike, I think it had to do with the team issue's.

Ozzy??

Afterwards he mentioned that he was thinking that maybe it was moisture in the ignition, or something like that. He said it was inconsistent in performance, and it was a bit spooky to ride. He also stopped by to check in with Mitch Payton after the races.
