word from Heerde was that HRC Japan technicians claimed they have not had a rider push the bike to these levels before, who knows if it's accurate.

KTM had 17 years to learn how Herlings rides and what he breaks, so they have an advantage in durability.    

That said, I think JH is going faster on the Honda than he did on the KTM maybe?

I watched Garabouldi Honda riders at Bergham NL in the hard sand today (Wednesday) with Vialle and Lata testing -Tom looked good, but the fastest guy today appeared to be Liam Everts, followed by De Wolf and surprisingly EMX 500 Ducati rider Victor Alonzo from Spain.

Herlings was allegedly  at Arnhem Wednesday doing testing, but I didn't see anyone out when I drove by the track...

It was press day at Arnhem today.

Too bad we didn't get to see 100% Lucas vs 100% Herlings last Saturday. It would have been something.
