In honor to Burgues… What about bike development? Obviously in this area Burgues has most of the records, and obviously Rossi is the best rider for the last decade (putting my thoughts apart as Rossi being the GOAT). So Burgues develops the bikes with Rossi’s feedback, but he is able to perceive...

Production delays on 09's have left Yoshimura with no choice but to start the season on the 08' bike.Not enough units have entered the US to be homologated.They were testing the 09 this week but later had to go to a local dealership to pick up some 08's and have 2 weeks to turn them into a...

Honda say they are ready to offer retired seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher a ride in the 2009 superbike world championship.

I've been waiting for my street triple for over 6 months but couldn't wait any longer so I bought a 2006 Speed Triple. Only got 6000 km's on the clock, in perfect condition.
But something won't let me upload photos at the moment. Will try later.

Supposedly Ducati was willing and Ezpeleta was wanting 40% of the field to commit to Michelin.The rumored 3rd Kawasaki was going to put them over the top but they were waiting on word from KHI.
Will they reconsider or is the tire deal...
The video is short, but in his day Freddie was the man. That 1984 NSR 500 two stroke was a beast. I do not think most of the current MotoGP grid could handle these monsters, especially since traction control was decades away. If my memory has not failed me that is the legendary Erv Kanemoto...
Well done to Scot. After some pretty good rides, and one win, he has been offered the works Aprillia for next season. He has had an offer to replace Mike di Meglio in the Ajo Motorsport Aprillia squad and has also been approached by KTM for a 250 ride.
Fair play to him, he deserves it and is a...
We have all heard that this rider or that rider only wins because they are on the besty bike. It is said of Rossi, Stoner, Pedrosa etc.
So my question is who else besides Rossi, Stoner and Pedrosa can win races and championships if they had the best bike?
I will start the ball rolling:
Win...
Finally confirmed

But I really REALLY doubt Aspar will take West. IMO if Kawa wants to keep him, they better find a SBK or WSS for him.
I think it will be Bautista.
Any thoughts on which manufacturer will make the largest development strides over the summer break?
Think the other teams need to break into Ducati HQ and find out what electronic package they use. That Duke, when riden by CS, gets its power down so efficitently in all parts of the race track!
