MotoGP 07 pics.

Chris Vermuelen isn't on solids yet and who?

Know a bit about racing mate?
oesn't really matter how old Vermuelen is does it? You're saying he's not a decent rider.....are you now saying it's purely because he's young?

Do you know how old Freddie Spencer was when he won his first world GP title?

And John Hopkins.....he's shit too yeah? Doubt you'd win an AMA Formula Xtreme Title at 17 (I think it was) and get snapped up by a top 500 GP team if that was the case.

He's not had a competitive bike to work with yet, but when he does.....you're gonna look pretty G.A.Y. (er)

What's intriguing is how the geometry styles have changed over the years too.

Nicky Hayden now sits so far forward of the rear wheel on the 212 http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/at...3&d=1169079705, while back in 1972 Geoff Perry damn near sat on the back wheel of the TR500 http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/at...3&d=1167180445 (just a shame Geoff is no longer with us to sit on the bike any more)

Moving forward with the times! In a few years they'll be sitting behind the yokes holding the front axle in their hands...

Sounds a bit like F1, they're going to be just as fast on the 800's this year as the 990's were. I think Rossi may have a bit of competition this year, too just as MS did in F1. The opposition works extra hard to catch up! It's all good for the sport. I didn't agree that F1 got "boring" as many said when Michael was dominating, neither when Rossi was in MotoGP. It just shows up the need for development by the other teams and when they get it right, it brings GREAT racing!

Yep, it'll be nice for the Suzuki boys to be remotely competitive this year.
Rossi is going to have to work hard - the competition is very fast and talented. Last year's world records are this year's qualifying times and all that...
Up and coming guys to watch for:
Casey Stoner (aka Crash) on the Ducati
Pedrosa
Melandri
Shinya Nakano on a Honda
Actually, pretty much everyone in the field~
There are going to be some great battles

[White trash]

They'll also have to get some decent riders.

Eh? Are you on drugs?

Chris Vermuelen managed to qualify on pole, in his very first season, on what's regarded as the most uncompetitive machine on the grid, at a track he'd only ever seen on Playstation.

Yup, those Suzuki riders are shit.............

[merv]

Pre-season doesn't mean much until the first race weekend then watch how the practice times go and even that won't matter once someone has won the race.

Remember all the "Rossi is doomed" comments when he was testing the Yamaha his first year on it, but we all remember who won the first race don't we, and the title?

And how's this for a sexy bike of it's time! It's taken a while for the big 'K' to use this 'frame' technology in it's superbike!

[merv]

Front mudguard looks like its off a Bella scooter or something and the damn bike is green man what you talking about sexy!

[Crasherfromwayback]

Green is sexy Merv! I loaded a different profile pic last night....it's my 'Green' GPZ1100.....had a good mate paint it that way....'Red' was SO not Kawasaki!

[merv]

... and there was me thinking you were loyal to the brands you sell!!

Mate......I've had over 50 motorcycles in the 30 years I've been riding...worked in 5 shops that have covered all the main 'makes'.....they're all good! It's just that as a youngster (a fucking long time ago now) I thought I was gonna be the next Eddie Lawson!

Shhhh everybody, the village idiot is trying to communicate.

And on the racing front, I may just know a thing or two. Ask Sensei, he knows my real identity. Be prepared to remove your 6 toe foot from your mouth.

That's right people....listen up!
This 'Village Idiot' is saying that even if Sensie knows your 'real' identity, you're still not very well informed about all things road racing.

You stated that Suzuki needed riders that were decent.....so you've shown us all just how much you know.

And for the record....I'll be the 'Village Idiot' anytime ahead of the 'Village Butt Muncher'
