How do we gauge it? Do we account the bike they rode? Or do we just simply look at his skills/techniques on it.



Never ending debate of Rossi and Stoner and Lorenzo too. I don't know how to make a poll (and I'm freakin Drunk) so I'll just read all your opinions on it. This thread would also welcome the greats like Mike, Ago, Doohan, Kevin, Rainey, Gardner and all the likes. We all know we can't compare riders through different era's. But we can surely debate of how they dominated/won their era's. Is it pure talent? bike? or whatnot?



Who do you think is the best?



Mine would be Doohan (despite me being a massive Casey fan). He literally didn't want his bike changed for god knows how many years (wikipedea; really?) and still dominated for 5 freakin' straight years. I'm too young to know the likes of past greats. Though I'd say Casey (and surely Valentino) are becoming such greats. Casey is the only rival Valentino met that can/would be one day considered as one of the greats anyway. Biaggi and Gibbers (no not Lorenzo) can go .... themselves.
 
Oh no.





Ok, maybe i can save us all, the answer is Nicky Hayden. He is the best. Period. End of thread.

Spies has already answered your question.

Lance Armstrong end of thread move along, move along

I don't know, Eddie Merckx and Miguel Indurain were pretty good. As for motogp riders I agree we don't need another such thread; let history judge the current riders when they have all finished their careers.
 
How did so much talent go so wrong in that bloke

I can't beleive the talent level of Gobert. If he didn't end up drug ......, I honestly think we could be ranking him as one of the greatest along with the above list of names. He was a gifted freak on a bike.
 
Yeah man, last I heard of him he got caught bag snatching in surfers a few years ago. Not cool.
 
And he rode the fastest milkcart in the WEEEEEESSSTTTT!



Kinda like when Stoner was on the Duc. ....

Wouldn`t Casey have to run away from the milk.......lactose intolrant.LOL



Yeah! Thats why he was so fast on the Duc.! he was always riding like he was trying to get away from a float full milk strapped to his back

PS. I wish you hadn't reminded me of Ernie .......... whenever i see/HEAR a Duc. pull up and hear that rattle ........ I'm gunna think of rattling milk bottles!! .
