Ben and Eric Bostrom were the last two of the modern class to race them, I think.

Aaron Yates' 883 is sitting in my garage in pieces. I don't have the original motor, but I'm told the front cyl was an 883 and the rear was a 1200.

How much you want for it

Wheres the Pussy ?" Got some good pics with him as well . He was / is the master of backing it in , a style of riding that really no longer exists in the top tier of racing. I know its not the fastest way around a racetrack but its sure fun to watch.

That's interesting. If you google " Nicky Hayden is,,,," one of the most popular searches ends in "gay"

Not for me. Maybe Google is trying to predict your preference based on past searches.


Just kidding, btw.

Come on guys. If we're going to guess that any motogp rider is gay, it's gotta be Rossi right???

No girlfriend and his manservant Uccio is always there!

I have no doubt he could clean-up in any national series and would be a potential champion in WSC on the right bike.

And he still doesn't speak a word of Italian that I'm aware of. That's a shame, he might have developed a winning bike if he'd learned the language.

One thing he did that will go down in the history books is that he won the World Championship in 2006 all the while developing a new bike for Honda's golden boy for the following year. Oh yea, he also kicked Rossi's ass that year also. When you think about it he is more than just a force in the national scene, has been for years and doesn't cry.....

Has the Lap record at Phillips Island. Pretty big accomplishment considering Casey Stoner is "unstoppable" there!

This from a guy who calls himself 'Red Rocket' and has an avatar of Cartman masturbating a dog.

It is your kind of riding weather out here right now. Low 20's and plenty of snow coming down.

I suspect Nicky will be one of the first to congratulate Dani after he wins the WC this year.
