    Back in 1977 Eddie Lawson, already a dirt track star, decided to go road racing. He showed up at a club race at Willow Springs with his TZ 250 and was told he had to participate in the "rookie" orientation session before he could actually enter and race. He didn't complain, he duct taped a big square on the back of his leathers like all the other newbies, myself included, and off we went. The session lasted about 20 minutes. He lapped me and my GS 750 at least four times. Always gave me plenty of room. What a gentleman and what a champion.

      Awesome memory, I remember being lapped at Road Atlanta WERA GNF in 85’ by John Kocinski. John was on a TZ250 as an expert and I was on a 500 interceptor as a novice.

Just to get his opinion which is worth its weight in gold with his more than 25 years motorcycling career at the highest possible level and this same ride was not even close to the limit that THE DOCTOR VR46 was able to take believe me he was very gentle and careful about this technical wonderful creations of Japanese Engineers.

    Just like motocross when they went to 4strokes is wasn't the same. Now the riders just need to sit and hold on the bike does the rest. 2strokes were raw and needed much more rider input which lead to more mistakes in corners = closer racing.

    Can you film it from the International Space Station next time please, then we can get to see the bike in a bit more detail?

    Motor Sport GP 500 2 Tak terkenal sangat liar dan sulit dijinakan krn tehnologi motor sport waktu itu tanpa perangkat elektronik yg modern sperti skrg. Tapi itu bkn masalah sama skali bagi seorang Valentino Rossi.
    Beliau juara Dunia dikalas utama jga menggunakan motor 2 tak NSR 500 yg trkenal lebih liar dari Yamaha YZR 500.
    ROSSI IS THE BEST 😎

    Unfortunately Moto GP is going the way of Formula 1 - way too much tech and clinical. When Vale described what it was like working for Honda, I can imagine all the teams are like it now. Yes, it’s the mission to win but where is the spectacle and thrill for the fans. At least when the 990s were around we had twins, triples, fours and a V5 - were will it end?😢

    If yamaha wants to keep valentino, I don't understand why they stop selling R1.

    Disappointing footage, a video from the front showing the dials and controls would be more engaging... even better a helmet cam!!
