That's OK, anyone actually dumb enough to want a Honda wouldn't be able to figure that out anyhow.

When was the last time Mother Kaw won a Championship at the world level anyway?
Answer:  Andrew Pitt won the world supersport in 2001.
The last time on the big stage was with Scott Russell back in 1993.
They had a bit more luck in the US, winning AMA Superbike Championships as recently as 1997.
Since 1997...crickets...
I think they've had some success at the AMA SuperSport level, but I'm not going to go digging through a bunch of pdfs to find out.  It would seem that the AMA runs their website as well as they ran the roadracing program.   :pukeface:
