  1. well, his chance was on a strict mathematical point. But in real life, he should have support his team mate. It's not like he was 7 points behind...
  2. agreed. But the real HRC supported rider is Pedrosa, not Hayden...Everything shows Dani get a better support...
  3. thanx for the pics. but gosh, ain't that Gozilla bike ugly or what ?
  4. ah ? already ? that would be such a bold but great move. can u tell us more ?
  5. i guess the explanation back at the team's hospitality was less than friendly. What a stupid move from Pedrosa. I feel sorry for Nicky, potentially losing the title like this is a shame. now, what about that Valencia GP? IS IT GOING TO BE HOT OR WHAT ? on a different note, it seems like Stoner was torpilled by the rider he will apparently replace at Ducati. Does the phrase 'we just got ourselves a new Xaus' ring a bell at Borgo Panigale ?
  6. yes, the MotoGP season is very exciting, and this next race has so high stakes it surely will shakes anyone's confidence if their spirit isn't solid as a rock. i think rossi will eventually win, he's the best rider out there. Nicky is very good, of course they all are at this level, but rossi is far more agressive, and that's where it will come down to: who will own the track ? i love to read the numbers and analysis on the motogp.com: see who's been riding more consistenly, who's really fast and not only because of the qualifiers, and then it all goes to shambles when the green light is on and they all race like madmen for the first corner colin edwards was today, with pedrosa and especially Stoner, among the fastest ones if you count consistency. hayden wasn't really there nor was Rossi. i hope rossi gets the crown; he deserves it, he's just above the others and adds class.
  7. so, Tex, what happened ? (maybe no one cares, but I do: the mind is such a fragile thing.)
  8. my goodness: quoting The Buzzcocks !
  9. Looks like they welded the front but it's all biased and wrong. The proto looked great tho.
  10. a vid on Youtube show some happy campers destroying the back tyre of a Jackal that wasn't hurting anyone.... (dynamic tags img aren't allowed, so do go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcVAnMqDW8w)
  11. yes. It's a duty. i have seen The Plasmatics. They were...uh, colorful
  12. what happened ? Gee, riding at 200 kmh and having your engien dying below you must be quite horrific...
  13. yes. and so what ? you've been missing the point by more than an entire octave i'm afraid. punk music was part of a movement that embodied far more than just badly played chords and ripped t shirts...
  14. try this. they are not all in français.
  15. great report ! thanx !
  16. ...yes, and what a odd way to start a new model...I guess that's Piaggio's idea of viral marketing
  17. there are SO MANY contenders...(images found here and there...) and soon in your town:
  18. try EMDR. It works. http://www.emdr.com/
  19. hi gang, i had some free time, so i tried to pick up the sound of the Ghezzi on tape. it's a 2003 Ghezzi Supertwin with Tubi race exhausts. the engine has a PCIII (needs some more work, like lots of it down in the range) and a Scola RS cam. http://www.theweathermen.net/Ghezzi29092006.mp3 enjoy. but don't wake the neighbours up jihem:)
  20. very true. damn...
  21. Hi all, I had my first Griso encounter this weekend and my my my don't they look sexy or what ? I signed in for a test later this week cos that 850 really attracts me a lot... So, while looking for details and gossips about it (there are rumours of bad reliability. A guzzi ? come on! , i came across a Tchequian website with two videos. Still wondering what the geezer tries to show on the Griso 850 (he waves from left to right...) and having my ears swallowing due to the terrible music on the Scura R vid', but still, nice, real nice bikes... http://www.motorkari.cz/index.php?show=00000002805&aks=2 jihem:)
  22. i rode a Voxan Cafe Racer a couple of years ago. The engine was potent enough but comes with a very annoying metallic ticking note. It's bulky to ride, but the handling was ok. All the people I know who own one had troubles with it, and terrible service apres vente... now, i think the price isn't bad considering it's really a bike that won't sell many numbers so it's a collector already and that isn't cheap. the new look is ok, if it wasn't for the fairing that is obviously a LM copy.
  23. can u imagine how many batteries this thing will eat up ? man, that thing must turn red hot.
  24. jihem

    Dilemma

    yeah, get something else for commuting or you'll ruin the Guzzi. Doesn't have to be a mono, could be a twin Honda 500 or a Kwack, these are good commuters.
