    He doesn't really need 'us' to tell 'you' why at the moment though...

    The other thing is mate...in a thread about Rossi coming right on the Ducati Stoner used to ride...it'd be pretty fucking naive to think you'd read much else in said thread after what Rossi said to Stoner last year no?

    This new rear geometry probably has some good points and is a way of "bettering the package " , stiffens it up lowers the mass moment a little ( Honda call it mass centralization)

    but its pivoting off the crankcase , which means heavier crankcases , its a v twin ( a ducati )
    long wheelbase , and if you try to shorten the wheelbase , you move big heavy bits to places where you might not want em

    could have sworn its a v4 (suppose you could call it a double v twin)

    Is it just me or does Vale never look like he's putting in 100% effort this year?
    My conspiracy theory is: is he not showing his hand this year knowing the Duc wasn't capable of doing what the Yam did on his 1st season? And waiting for the 2012 new 1000cc season and will come out guns blazing..............

    Well I'm hoping so because the racing this year, especially the last race, is quite dull.

    Lets have bigger grids next year with all the top 10 swapping paint

    Bet Stoner will be crying himself to sleep upon learning you have no respect for him anymore too.

    Stoner has said for the past two seasons (possibly longer) that the Ducati has a serious lack of front end feel. Nothing was done. As for being the greatest out there, I think he's proving fairly conclusively that he is at the moment.

    I'd be running too if I spent a few years with team pasta and they still couldn't sort it out.

    Ya left the door wide agape this time Ivan sorry mate, STONER is a dam awsome rider as Crasher keeps saying, it is just the part of him that acts like a little girl I dislike, and it is Documented FACT that Rossi and Jerry can make bikes work if the factory will spend, and spend Ducati will now they have the 2 best people required for this improvement.

    Hayden? Where's he gonna go? Yamaha are quite happy with their rider line up, Honda have no room... Suzuki?
