    Nah, I reckon Spies is the coolest cunt on the planet, with the possible exception of Scott Russell and Colin Edwards.

    I think the Yamaha marketing people deserve a bullet for such a waste of an opportunity. Why was almost every other bike an R1 or an R6? Have some mean "stuffing it up the inside" of some squids on GSXRs or S1000Rs. Where's the humour?

    Yamaha USA will be looking at that and laughing their tits off.

    So much potential in that idea, failed execution.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    the riding was a little bland and then he opened his mouth at the end and sounded as thick as a brick

    Coz it's obviously not as good as an S1000RR?

    Don't think you can be the coolest cunt on the planet and fail that badly... on the other hand he's not stoopid... just not a flicker of humour whatsoever.
