    Foggy era!
    The fight between Lorenzo and Rossi came into the limelight last season.
    A better comparison according to me would be,

    Rossi-Biaggi v/s
    Schwantz-Rainey



    My favorite racer of all time is Gary McCoy
    Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle.

      Taming the mean n spine-brealking 500cc two-strokers

      those guys were a demon on the wild riding 500cc beasts...rossi too had tamed the NSR 500...but netime...its rider over tech...thats why F1 is boring coz too much of technology n strategy...very rare overtaking maneuvers on track...though last two races were great...some good team-mate battles

              Aah, noticed the poll now!!

              Hmmm, it depends...on road conditions, city/highway riding, no doubt tech is better for human safety and enhancing riding experience, however, for racing, as Rossi himself prefers, less tech (mainly less of electronics controlling the traction n all). I'll go with tech but with Rossi!!....does it makes sense at all?? hahahaha
