Just a couple of thoughts... |
The main problem with the 500 strokers is that there was/are only about 6-8 people in the world who can ride one properly-they are evil! The 990 MotoGP diesels are MUCH easier to ride-for now. My main concern is that they are reducing the capacity to 800cc-to reduce the power and speed-but the engineers will still get about 250 bhp out of them and they will end up as evil rev boxes-rather like the 500cc strokers they replaced.
I watched the F1 race on Sunday-first time for years-it'll be years before I bother again............
