Did Harley ever fix that whole complete front brake failure thing I heard about a couple months ago? I think that would be the most importent thing I would like to know about these new models haha

It is nice to see MV backing up their looks.

I came up with two more questions:

Any noticeable difference with a 5 axis imu compared to the yamaha’s 6 axis imu? Is the oem steering damper ok or is it bullshit?

I think your story only proves that self control is the issue. You know, since the whole reason for the crash was that your friend lost his self control and gunned it to shoot a gap.

Had I “X” a few feet sooner or later I would be dead. Most overused and generally untrue statement people throw around all the time. And holy shit, how did that dumbass manage to steer his vehicle in the only direction that would put him in any sort of real danger?

Fixed it. Also, no fucking shit.

Race car beats production car lap records... I sure fucking hope so.

CUT! Alright, good job people. Now you can go put on Pirelli’s so you can run some fast laps, and while you do that we have some motogp riders we need to introduce to the ground!

Remember that time FIAT took a ND miata, made it uglier, heavier, put a different engine in it, then sold the world an expensive and slightly underpowered NC miata?

No imu because the rider won’t need it... Or they could just be honest and say it’s because the buyers they are aiming for are the ones too broke to afford one (which is a legitimate strategy). Also, that seems like a pretty clear indication of their feeling about WSBK moving into the future.

Woa, that might be the first bike I would seriously consider buying new.

Yea it’s called developing the motor and drive train...rather than spending tons of r&d to build an entirely new bike, then finish and go “ok now that we know all that we want to change, let’s re-do everything.”

We don’t, but they do.

Kinja’d

Honda already did the “big bang” thing.

Probably would have tried these except the pinky and ring finger aren’t sewn together. Ended up getting Held Titans and, while pricy, they have been amazing.

Damn, I hate Lorenzo but he really did deserve this championship. Sucks Marquez decided he needed to put his stamp on the year just because he didn’t like what Rossi said in a press conference. It was hard to watch Marquez decide not to make a move on Lorenzo even though he was running him over for the last 6 laps or…

Edit: Wrong MSR. It’s hard to find something to hit off track at cresson :).

I think it makes sense from the standpoint of, someone who is in charge of Lorenzo’s paycheck said “Hey, we have this commercial you are going to do whether you like it or not.”
