If you didn't see this on Superbike Planet, take a look. Anthony Gobert was probably the most naturally talented rider to waste his abilities. Here he battles with Aaron Slight on the factory Honda RC45 while riding the Muzzy ZX-7R at the WSB race at Philip Is. in 1996. The attempted pass on the outside of the hairpin is worth the watch, but he is on the edge almost continuously!

I watched him ride that Kawi at Laguna, amazing how he was sliding the front. Now, he's just pathetic, and expect to see an obituary any time.....

Pete had it right:
"Anthony Gobert was THE most naturally talented rider to waste his abilities"
