  • With the compere of the afternoon!


    Hey there... I am Valentino Rossi!


    They gave me a really big bike to suit my size... what about you? Oh, I got a small light one; it is called the M1. It is just 800cc!


    Can I have one of these too please!








    Is this what Yamaha gave you?


    Oh my God! This is too big and powerful for me!


    Here... you ride


    A decade of unbelievable fame
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

          • WOW! I said this elsewhere and will say it again. HE's so skinny! No wonder HE's so fast! :P
            Just seeing him in pics with Johnny boy is awesome. AND you saw Vale in the flesh!! Must have been surreal right Ken da?

            I hope the next time HE comes to stay in the hotel I work in. Sigh...the power of dreams.

              I think the photos are from press meet held in a hotel in Delhi. It's not from auto expo.

                15 minutes perhaps.........I wasn't exactly testing my typing speed so didn't take much notice.

                A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                  Yes, I think I mentioned it in the introductory paragraph of the article!

                      • ^^I'm not surprised. Auto shows always have a ton of wannabes and people who go just for the ladies.

                          Some of it! Like he does find the V-Max big and powerful. And he definitely wants one R15 to ride around!

                            • Yamaha should actually sell limited edition R15s with Rossi signature. They could have done this day.
