I wouldn't go that far....

Lost of good riders have came up through the AMA Superbike series. Wayne Rainey, Kevin Schwantz, to name a couple. Nicky H. and Colin E. as of late.

I think spies will do well AFTER a season or two.. He is not going to jump on and dominate anyone IMO. The difference in bikes/power/weight/handling is night and day..
