I agree with the other Guys, there is only One GOAT. Otherwise it's a slippery slope... Everyone wants to be the GOAT of something. The GOAT of making PB and J's?

Indeed - I was at the TT in 2000 and its an expereince that was wonderful, and now tinged with sadness. DJ and Joey AND Robert all gone. Who was I thinking of?

'13. if they deliver, show your approval with your wallets. just remember guys, an added bonus of rossi being back with yamaha is that you may yet get a good looking R1 designed to resemble the M1…? :) furusawa’s engine and all it’s associated tech (TC, flybywire, variable TB’s, dual injectors, Ti valves, etc.) finally wrapped in package that’s not an eyesore. whether or not we see it this november remains to be seen, but technically 4 years have passed and the bike’s due for it’s first FULL overhaul come M.Y. ’13. if they deliver, show your approval with your wallets.

THE RIDERS THAT DO WELL ARE ONES THAT CAN GET THE MOST FEEL AND CONFIDENCE FROM THEIR MACHINES TO KEEP PUSHING THE BIKE TO HIGHER SPEEDS. GIVEN EQUAL MACHINERY AND EQUAL HEALTH, ROSSI IS AND HAS POVEN TO BE THE BEST RIDER. LORENZO ONLY BEAT HIM IN 2010 BECAUSE OF THE WORSE INJURY IN ROSSI'S RACING CAREER. UP TO THAT POINT, ROSSI HAD A VERY STRONG START WITH AN OPENNING WIN AT QATAR - A TRACK THAT IS NOT TRADITIONALLY HIS FAVORITE RACING A MOTO GP MOTORCYCLE AT A WORLD CLASS LEVEL IS ABOUT FEEL AND COMFORT ON GIVEN MACHINERY.
