Yeah I did! That 90 proof Smirnoff really gets the job done. I also left off Yamaha and Kawasaki. Although Rubens finished I think in 13th in the standings behind each brand...

Biaggi was just the right man in the moment on the machine.

I don't need a commercial to make me like my BMW. It's the best bike "out of the box" that I've ever owned....and I've been riding over 45 years. I don't care what it does in WSBK, AMA or whatever....I love it, and that's all that really matters, isn't it?

Max's consistancy was much more of a key factor over his speed. Maturity of age and a hungry team with good equipment have finally turned him into the weapon he should have been years ago.

Still irks me that rossi gets all the credit for the m1 when the major changes were obviously based on max and carlos's previous season race data...and that it was considered "unrideable" when max finished the championship second on it. Gonna be fun watching vale suck on the duc.

Hey that rhymes

As for the wunderbike, we'll see how it does with haslam, toseland, and badovini at the helm

I have faith in Haslam. Toseland not so much. Badovini? He'll use up some bodywork for sure...

I dunno man, the more I read about what guys have to say about racing crossplanes...I think jt may surprise us this year. Potential dark horse for sure. Or would be anyway if I wasn't convinced the legion of mean green kwakers (five at last count) are gonna be nasty

Did aryton crash at all last year? I know. Nothing of him beyond his ss results
