I'll be honest here - I have no idea about him or his music although his name is one I knew of as the greats.

Still sad to hear news of anyone passing away though. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones

Obvs going too fast, looks like the chevrons took him by surprise. He got in two minds which way to go, decided to go right but realised he'd possibly be heading into on coming traffic.

You do realise you may never ever get that opportunity again in your whole life. :D I'm preying to God (even though I don't believe in him) that he will allow this situation to rise again...knowing my luck it will be when I'm 80 and my old gear shift won't be getting into gear anymore! ...

That's more than fair enough. You want to be with him for that. He's done very well, ably helped with supportive parents.

Hickman is going to be a big star of the TT and he has a good bike in a good team with plenty of testing and BSB rounds to keep him sharp. Totally agree he is a very strong podium threat at this year's TT.

It's is Duke. Tradionally a 600 man but he has been getting better on the big bikes and who would count against him on what has to be one of the strongest superstock race packages in the 2016 zx10r. Definitely a podium threat.

You can't really blame him in fairness.

Play on the worlds best motorcycles and get paid a fortune without any responsibilities.

I know I would do it if I could

I think it was inevitable after the issues he had in two races this season.

I guess Shark want a top rider wearing their gear and have paid him handsomely to do so.

He wasn't happy with HJC and I guess AGV weren't going to have him and I don't ever remember him being a shoei or arai rider.

Probably as simple as Shark were throwing buckets of cash at the deal and wanted a top rider in their brand of helmet.

I've had a Shark lid in the past and I would have another.

Surprising to see him pick a French brand though

Pretty funny tbh as Rossi had a shark helmet design in Misano to represent Lorenzo chasing him in the tittle challenge and now Lorenzo switches to Shark helmets (giggle) More here: http://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/news-and-views/racing/motogp/2016/january/lorenzo-swaps-shark-for-hjc-after-helmet-issues/#.Vopo7BBFDqB" ...

That's a public road, not a bloody racetrack. Let's hope his time in hospital will help him reflect on how much worse it could have been.
