At least one guy thinks so and he has put a lot of time and money into it. Cycle World has an article on Walter Roehrich’s new bike and the possibility of it going into production. The problem I see, is that it is an expensive niche bike with no volume and no possibility of challenging the [...]

What a difference a year and new bikes and everything else makes.  Rossi was his old masterful self at the Spanish Grand Prix. What is surprising is how poorly Nicky Hayden is running. It’s not just that he is a little off the pace, he is struggling on the new bike. With Pedrosa riding so well, it [...]

Those questions aside, [...]

With the festivities already going strong in Daytona, there is plenty to see (more than you will want to see downtown at night!).
The AMA site has a page up with happenings and updates. I have a couple of friends down there, and I hope to get some info on the vintage auction and Ducati Day. He has [...]

Speed has the info on the first day of qualifying in Qatar. Looks like Nicky Hayden is struggling, and Rossi is, well, Rossi. I’m hoping for a great competitive season that goes down to the wire like last year.
The 2007 MotoGP season officially got underway today, with riders undertaking their first practice and qualifying laps [...]
