Love the bike racing. WSB from Magny Cours today, can't wait

Great sport, one thing that I find fascinating is the bike development from MotoGP to WSB and BSB, straight down to, and available from your local dealer nowadays, the engineering and technology is amazing, always advancing. Traction control, anti wheelie, cornering ABS the lot. Saying that the bikes are so powerful nowadays you couldn't ride them without it

200kg, 200BHP, available on the road

Lamb chops h2 with after market exhaust and remap 260 hp. Try a streetfighter v4, Moor fun than a fully faired sports bike.

Like his reviews, up there with the best. 44 teeth ones are brilliant, the best for me

H2 is super quick but a big heavy lump, not for me. Same as a street fighter, naked bikes are for hooligans, power wheelie jobs. Get over the ton and you need neck muscles like Mike Tyson plus they feel so unstable with the wind blast.

Isle of Man next year for me. I'm either keeping the Ducati, having a Tuono, or another GSXR

Not Moto GP but Jonathon Rea, 6 times WSB champion. The greatest of all time, what a rider

Great results for the Brits

Think it was Moto GP or could have been WSB, last time out one of the commentators had said that MM told him his brother will be a better rider than him



Edit - Just watched the highlights, great race by AM, still think the factory Honda is the best all-round package, downside the Márquez brothers could rule for a long time if we are not careful

Nice to see the Suzuki's up there and Rins managed to finish

As for Vinales and the factory Yamaha, rubbish again

Great little tussle at the end between Mir and Miller. I cant remember the race numbers but hasn't Mir done well....as for quat...interesting to hear from the commentary that it was too much fettling with the set up, maybe he can offer more..hmm.

Fabulous to see Suzies back on top.

And the potential MM might not be back for the start of the season.

Well done to Mir and Suzuki

Think he's around 23 Mir so hopefully has a very good future

As for Suzuki, love my Suzuki's and amazing to see them on the top again after a relatively short time. 20 years since they last won it and before that Kevin Shwantz, one of my all time favourite riders and the stunning Pepsi Suzuki, one of the best looking bikes ever for me too, saw him win at Donnington on it in 1989

Can't remember what I was riding when I was at brands watching this, probably a gpz750 but had a slab750 later.
