Re: Dakar 2013 !!!!!
40th which ain't bad. I had big hopes for the Hondas and was really surprised by the Yamahas.
Let's see if my math is correct. 183 bike entries. Mark Entries Finished Beta 2 0 BMW 2 0 Bultaco 1 0 Gas-Gas 3 3 Honda 33 22 Husaberg 3 0 Husqvarna 10 7 Jincheng 2 2 Kawasaki 3 3 KTM 67 53 Sherco 4 2 Suzuki 1 1 TM 2 2 Yamaha 50 32 It is hard to look at these numbers and not try to sort out who are privateers simply wanting to finish and who are factory supported determined to win. One might guess that the failure rate would be higher at those two extremes than in the middle. For example the Chinese factory Jincheng stated that their team goal was simply to finish.
