Love the sound of those GP bikes. I don't care what cc they are.

Loris said riding the 800 reminded him of riding a 250GP bike. That practice he was running with 990cc bikes and his 800 was good for 16th fastest time. Not bad for a first ride amongst larger/ more developed machines.
It's gonna be interesting next year. i can't view the vids from here, but I did see one of Rossi, Loris, and Giberneau testing theirs. The Duc sounded cool as hell. Wonder if they'll be slower than the 500cc 2-strokes.

good question-
I would think so because they were only 5-10 MPH slower than the 990's. but with technology today, who knows?

Great coverage. You can put Rossi on a Vespa and he would still win races! I wish he had stayed with Repsol :cry:

i can guarantee that the results would be drastically different if they were on 500 2 strokes. the youngins wouldnt be running up front.
