Yea this is a TOTALLY different bike from when Biaggi rode it, so I was smart enough not to try and compare it to the bike Max rode. On the other hand, Colin Edwards did ride the same bike so...

Yeah I know. :lol:

I'm just sick of hearing: "Only this rider can ride this bike"

Only Pedrosa can ride the Honda, only Stoner can ride the Ducati, only Rossi can ride the Yamaha, etc.

Hey that's a fair complaint! It does seem that way A LOT! There is a SHITLOAD of 1st row- 6th row discrepancies between the "A" rider and the "B" rider in every camp but Yamaha. To my mind that says superior team and/or superior machine.:rockwoot: Everyone knows how I feel about "Mr Excuses" Nicky Hayden, most dominant bike on the grid in previous years (both the Honda and the Ducati) and he can barely muster a 10 ten finish. It's always the bike/team's fault. Yeah I'm sure that Honda spent millions of dollars to put you on the grid only to abandon and not support you during the race season...yeah sure. Apparently, Ducati is doing the same thing...BASTARDS!!!:lol:

they should just let the rider pick what bike they wanna ride at the start :lol:

Dude that would be awesome!!! Maybe a lottery or better yet a footrace and you jump on the bikes and go! I think a different manufacturer should provide all of the bikes for every round. You get the bike per lottery and away you go!!! A couple practice sessions, superpole and then race!!!:lol:

I can understand Ben wanting to change up now that he proved that he "can hang with the big boys". I really wonder though is Aprilla really an org that can handle a rider like Ben? Just a personal opinion I would love to see him on a duc but that's only because I love the Ducs.

I'd like to see him on anything except Ducati, they have the most dominant bike. I see no reason to give them the most dominant rider as well!

Those Ducati bikes impress the hella outta me.

See your point but..... I would love to see what he can really do with all the "might" of the best behind him. With the right backing how far could he take it???? How good could he really be?
Pluse to be crude sexy guy on a sexy bike :dribble: Sorry I had to go there had a few wiskey sours tonight :lol:

nah do it by footrace. and to make things interesting you start in reverse order of your last finish. so the last guy who won is the furthest away from the bikes when the gun goes off ;) manufacturer's points stay the same, just peel the riders off. no practice, no superpole, no samesies for race two.
