That'd be Joan Olive. I've been wondering all year why his # was like that.

i think most people will dissagree with you...

i bet you also think a electric motor from a scooter sounds better than a lambo v12 right?

I was thinking the same thing! I have not been a really big fan of 250 or 125 but I'm going to make an effort to watch M2.

This is very simple, all you have to do is answer the following questions. What was the last motorcycle race meeting you attended? Indeed, have you ever been to a WSBk, Moto GP, AMA race? Have you stood trackside and heard the Desmosedici?

Or how about this jewel? Shame the guy riding it is a bit of a queen...when he does get started it really needed a fistful, even though it is from cold...

The black and orange Harris framed bike looks sweet. Why can't the Big Four
guys make a 600cc street bike with lines as clean as that? Dammmn!

Yeah, it didn't sound ever so great in that vid.

The Desmo sounds great, but nothing compares to the old 6 cylinder Honda (possibly a RC166) I heard at Cadwell a few years back.

Completely. I was saying in a recent thread, that is precisely what I hoped they'd wheel out amongst other gems from the past (ie Saarinen's TZ)to commemorate the final race of the class. The opportunity was staring Dorna in the face, but as usual myopic micro management left them blind.

Yeah, I can't believe they had nothing at all.

WSB have done something similar a bunch of times.

Here's the Scot Racing Moto2

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Teomolca @ Nov 9 2009, 02:51 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Héctor's number and design is a sneaky way to get another sponsor, the 40 Principales radio station.

I have no idea why the logo of the radio station is rainbow coloured, it's a normal pop style radio station, I don't think the colour is gay related, the station is owned by a clearly left wing media empire, and left weing are very pro gay in Spain but maybe that's a bit far fetched connection.

The idea has been copied by some 125cc rider who wears a green #6 which is the logo of a Spanish TV station called La sexta (the sixth).

Okay, now if only we could figure out DeAngelis' helmet......
Thanks for the reply.

I have heard on multiple occasions that the rainbow in Italy and much of Europe is a symbol for world peace. The topic of De Angelis' helmet has been dealt with on this forum frequently, and usually the world peace explanation gets repeated.

Right but then we get into how his rainbow matches the pride flag not the peace flag in color order.
