    And ya RC212V is also a V4, RC211V (990) used to be a V5 !!
    Yup honda rc212v, Ducati desmo, suzuki gsv are v4s
    yamaha m1 and kawasaki zzr are inline 4s


    once moto2 is launched may be more manufacturers will be considered...

      Ya, but only once the Honda contract is over ! Also they have standard ECUs. So the participaring companies will have a say only in the chassis design !! Looks like that will bring a lot of racing on the hands of the rider!!

      Maybe Rossi will ride in Moto2 for a year before retiring !!
      Kawasaki Ninja : Because lazy sunday afternoons should be despatched at 160 kmph!!!
      Hyosung Aquila : Because sometimes you need to look cool while riding at 40 kmph and you can do that only on a cruiser !!!

        people(including me) might not be as knowledgeable in GP as you are but they are enjoying the races and the qualifying rather than worrying which manufacturer is making into which category and nobody wants to instigate kind of a brand war as to which one is better; motogp or wsbk.

        which is what i would like to see , more of a rider dominance rather than the bike dominance

              • ^^ same as what was said above...

                time to take my r15 for a spin....

                Comment


                • What a race!! Kudos to the 250!
                  Fantastic stuff!

                  EDIT: I hope both Pedrosa and Dovi end up with piston seizures and burnt clutch plates.

                  Winds of change? Nope. More like monetary flatulence.

                  EDIT 2: Fantastic race again. Guess I was expecting a little too much from my Gods
                  Rossi was his usual self. And might I add Marco Melandri to the list of the virtuosos here. The mans racing a Kawi, the only one around and he keeps getting these awesome results. Kudos. Maybe Hayden can do this when his contract ends, which does not look very far away

                  • Fantastic race....Rossi spoiled the Spanish party

                    But Lorenzo was a bit too unlucky...I think he had his right footpeg broken!...Pedrosa rode quite well...and Melandri was superb in 5th I guess

                      Lorenzo was unlucky, kudos to De Puniet & Malendri (Ducati was a Boogie team for him) he was always a fantastic rider!

                        Yeah. You've got to feel for Lorenzo; afterall, he was gaining rapidly on Stoner and was on course to a podium finish. Couldn't have worked out better for Stoner!

                        EDIT: I have to say this again: BRILLIANT races ALL. If you missed these, make sure you catch the highlights, not just the 800s but the 125s as well as the 250s, which were upto the standard of WSBK Race 1 Assen 09.

                            Talk about sportsmanship come on pal. Competition should be killed by hard racing not by praying for technical failures Peace above was said just for fun. Please don't jump on me for this.

                            Feeling bad for Jorge he was pushing very hard for the podium.
                            But 125 and 250s took the cake away in terms of dog fights

                              If that ever happens, I am gonna k*ll you!!!!! j/k

                              But, it feels really bad seeing any rider crash..

                              Getting back on the track.. Thank you Hayden for leaving Honda..

                              800cc wasn't that exciting compared to 125cc and 250cc... It is getting kinda certain..

                                No, dude, you've got me wrong. I'm pissed off with Honda over the Moto2 fiasco and so, I'm just wishing Honda some bad luck. That's all. I guess I should have included de Puniet to make it a li'l more convincing.

                                Infact, I like Dovi and would love to see him do well, with Yamaha or Ducati that is
