Cars and bikes I’ve come across in my travels

I’m not into the new modern stuff either, but yeah, agree that Kawasaki using classic color schemes is a good idea.
Yes, Kawasaki is that 'Lime' green color. If you're a motorcyclist, 'Lime' doesn't even come into the equation; it's simply 'Kawasaki Green'. Laverda lost the claim to 'Laverda Orange' when the family quit the motorcycle business; now it's simply orange, if it is orange.
 
Until he started rehearsing his winners speech two laps too early!
Was it not Acosta who won? I watched a three and a half minute silent highlight and saw a KTM win - was it their other rider (showing my ignorance here!)? I fell off a bit when we lost free-to-air telly of MotoGP.
 
He is a talent, such an intense rider. I hope the new Assie moving up next year has a similar time in MotoGP. Its increadably competative.
 
Next year they're all back on the little 'toddler' 850cc bikes and the new aerodynamic restrictions. Something to do with the riders not having to ride to manage tire wear for half the race. The Sprint races have proved to be more competitive closer racing and more exciting for spectators.
Less aerodynamic devices means less turbulence behind the bike which means it will be easier to pass. No holeshot devices or adjustable ride height either. Less F1 car on two wheels and more motorcycle! Plus tires that will not have such a narrow pressure window.

They just had their second test day on the new bikes, untimed, and the riders all loved them. They want to be racers, not systems management engineers…..
