    I was listening in on a group in the Kawasaki pit in 05 which must have been the year after that crash ? A few were pulling the piss out of Nakano saying his arse must have been puckering !!!
    I was standing next to Nakano and was amazed at the size of the guy, tiny. A friendly chatty fella.
    The fastest speed reached that day was 346 !!!!! and thats a wheelie over the hump towards the end of the straight.

    How? Do you know what the top gear ratio is?
    What speed is it geared for?

    What I was getting at was if they're at redline in top @ 350kph, then 430kph is gonna make something go bang in my mind. But if they're actually geared for 400 odd for the wheelspin...then maybe it could spin up to 430. But I've already said that in my last post.

    "...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

    Marquez will not be at the next test but is riding moto x and says vision is nearly 100 percent.

    The conspiracy theorists say he is OK now but doesn't want the world to see his new bike parts...

    There is a video interview but you need to understand Spanish.

    Today is Valentino Rossi's birthday. Today is also the due date for Casey's baby. What chances combined birthday parties?
