Incorrect Ivan from Featherstone. I said Hopkins / Suzuki doesn't stand a chance at the title, which it doesn't.

Its Featherston not Featherstone
Suzuki DOes stand a real good chance at winning the title im sure of it

It's only after telling you us all how useless Hopkins is, and me telling you you're full of shit that you changed course......and decided it was about Hopkins winning Moto GP this year.....which I never said he'd do THIS year.

Seems you're the one with the old change of tune trick.

Read my post #31 then apologise.

And get out from behind the counter and go serve some customers!

I spelt it like that on purpose. I've been there once you know.

Woah, whats the world coming to when Ivan is correcting someone else's' spelling? Hmm, maybe its even an oxymoron?

WTF? Alex Barros fastest at Phillip Island? Wonder what Troy Bayliss must be thinking sitting at home.....

[merv]

Ok I've said before preseason testing won't mean much once the first race gets underway.

The Phillip Island tests drew to a close with Hayden fastest at 1.29.52, Pedrosa second at 1.29.72 then a whole bunch of Ducatis and then the Suzukis with Vermuelen 9th at 1.30.72 and Hopkins 11th at 1.30.80.

All the factories will be working for improvements and Honda won't be sitting round resting on their laurels so whoop de doo now the Suzukis don't look so hot.

Rossi wasn't even there so does that mean Hayden is fastest? Who knows. Wait for the first race. Will Finn win the money? I don't know I'm not a betting man.

What it means Merv....is that the Ducati works REAL well there, the Suzuki's have always struggled there, and Rossi and his team know they go well there so have decided to forgo the test there and go to Sepang again where they struggled this time. Forget that with a qualifier on he beat Hopkin's time. They weren't in the hunt all test, time wise on race rubber.

So what we have this year.....is Bridgestone with as many (if not more) teams as Michelin providing them feedback, with more and more tracks they now have good results at......and teams like Suzuki, Ducati, Kawasaki and even some Honda teams coming at Michelin. Japanese tyres......who's gonna get the most help in having tyres made specifically for them? Suzuki? Yep.

the Suzukis don't look so hot.

And seeing as you're a bit of a Honda Boy.....I thought you might like this wee pic....even though it's not a GP bike......it's still one sexy MoFo of a bike!
Probably one of THE sexiest I've seen in a while....

[merv]

Presumably DuHamel's bike?

[Ivan]

Thats one nice looking bike,
Great to see ALex Barros doing well, he is a toprider that SBK race win of his was marvelous. All he wants is to win a world championship before he ritires, i still think Vermuelen and Hopkins being so young have a great future ahead of them, BOth possibly WOrld Championship winners Vermulen allready has a World Super Sport title now he needs Moto GP

[Crasherfromwayback]

Presumably DuHamel's bike?

Aye......and here's Finn's mate again!

And Elias.....lean angle?

[Crasherfromwayback]

Presumably DuHamel's bike?

Aye....well sexy bike!

Here's Finn's mate again....and Elias......lean angle? Not bad....

Hmm interesting thread, lots of hot air, but some worthy comments too.
Those pictures are cool, im loving the honda, kawa and yamis looks, especially the small tails.
That brake disc rotor looks like its made out of carbon or something? and wow look at the other detail, all the nuts and bolts are nothing like a road model.
Id back Honda to take the title because i want them too, 1st 2nd and 3rd this time!, but maybe ducati`s frolicking snowbunnys can do it, or yamaha because that rossi guy rides one, but were talking about all new bikes, anything could happen yet. Its the young guns that havnt crashed much yet that you have to watch out for.
From a racers point of view rather than a spectator, id have to say if those guys are heading towards bridgestones camp, and the rest are with michilen (sp), then maybe i should be getting some of those tyres. And where can i get one of those sexy bums for my bike?
