True, but I could bet $ that Rossi will smoke any rider on an RC211V.

You have one of those too? Quite a nice stable of bikes you have there! I always knew you had a surprise in for us ;).

I'm saying that no matter what bike Rossi's is on, he'll own.

Welp, he won't be having those hellacious braking_into_turns like he used to, well not as much. The RC211Vs were known for their exceptional braking into turns performance. I have no doubt he will win some, I followed his career closely the past 4 years. I read everything I could about him, and he certainly is the consummate professional. I do doubt he will own like he used to, he was tired of winning so easily all the time, so he chose the middle road. If he wanted a huge challenge, he would have went to Suzuki or Aprilia, if he wanted more money or go the obvious route, he would have went to Ducati or stayed with Honda, but he chose the safer, middle road, and went with Yamaha, who isn't too far behind, but behind nonetheless.

First time riding the bike and he pops a wheelie. What a squid... :whistle: J/k, we all know the wearing a full faced helmet makes him the premire spokeman for motorcycle safety.

Sweet vid nonethelee. The M1 does sound badass.

[zeal]

Sweet video!

He flips into those turns so effortlessly AND so quickly like it was nothing. Must have taken years of practise and complete dedication to get there.

Given some of Rossi's lap times I think he'll spend most of this year trying to get acclimated to the M1. I think he'll BE owned this year.

Go Collin!! Go Hayden!!

LOL, how about Melandri? You know Barros went down more on the M1, this year, than his entire career combined? Bike or rider? Melandri was feared on his M1, as some riders were quoted as saying he was dangerous and a hazard. So was it Yamaha or the rider? With Xaus, we always knew it was the rider and Biaggi just likes to whine.

see y'all gotta go and be sarcastic
