Re: Lorenzo and Ducati

If Yamaha lose Lorenzo thats a huge blow , Rossi is no longer a regular race winner and they will need a replacement for him in 2 years time , I think Rins or maybe even Lowes will come up from moto2 to take the spot . Unless they can get Vinales of course but I think Suzuki will fight ...

Re: Casey Stoner considered stepping in at Pramac Ducati Mot

Re: Lorenzo and Ducati

... Jorge is watching this development closely. Yamaha have a limited budget and the bike has evolved rather than been revolutionised in the last 10 years. On the other hand Ducati are innovators with huge amounts of cash and development knowledge from Audi. Personally I think money will have little ...

... paid £1000 TPFT at 19 for my ZX6R! As for bikes, that doesn't seem to come down at all anymore which is strange. £300 for the ZX this year with 6 years NCB

Re: The new improved fitness thread

I did get a funny look when I dismissed on bed the sales lady showed me because 'it had no where to tie up to' (lol).

Actually just went to get a new mattress for an old base I've had stored in the shed for years and ended up buying a full suite.

Re: CBR600RR no more

No one is buying the new ones. Generally the second hand 600s are still going for decent money. The Japanese 600s haven't been upgraded for years and from I've read on 675cc the recent changes to the Daytona have made it more like a Jap bike. What's the point in buying a brand new 600 when you ...

Re: What you watching?

Endless political rhetoric and bickering on the offchance that the US will have an election sometime in the next 15 years....can't get away from the stuff. Someone, I think Clinton, has just thrown out the inevitable Hitler jibe at Trump and the world is about to end...etc.
