    Why stop there? CAsey Stoner lives there too so theres likely at least one MOtoGP Duke and Honda there too. What about Gardiner?


    According to something I read, most of that stuff goes in the crusher at the end of the season except their favoured riders (and maybe Championship winners) get to keep an example, and the Honda museum or equivalent.
    I thought elections were decided by angry posts on social media. - F5 Dave

    Lawson had it in his contract, win a championship, keep the bike.

    MotoGP bikes sound the same. Doohan's Screamer NSR on full song from trackside was something to behold.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    You'd do better with John Koskinsi. He got more out of the RC45 than Aaron did.

    Watch out mate. MD is a professional loan shark now. Do wrong to him and you might get a 'little visit'.

    I'll just tell him its a strip club and he'll instinctively slip into normal suit & fall over vomit on my shoes & cry about how he used to be someone

    And it's yellow. That had to count for something right?

    Kind of sad owning a bike with 12K on the clock and needing the cam belts changed. Not a bike I could afford to own.

    Kind of sad, but that's the Ducati way. The belts take a 'set', and at least he is being honest & responsible about it. Replace belts at 2 years or xx km whichever the sooner. Most get replaced from sitting I'd bet.
