after seeing a thread a while ago on bikes made by ferrari and other non bike brands, i thought i'd share this as i am a huge rossi fan.

on having a closer look (although the site is in italian) the spec looks quite good.

    well the mountain bike is 2700 euros, which i think equates to about 2500 GBP

    Some people will buy anything that's yellow and has '46' on it.

    Allegedly there was going to be a Casey Stoner version but it kept whining and losing the front end.

    That HD is pretty much the same money as an Anthem X1 :shock:

    When they release the backmarkers range, they'll be a lot cheaper with the same kit.

    i've not missed a moto gp in this country for 10 years, but i may give it a miss this year and do world superbikes instead, not sure yet :?

    world superbikes seems too be very competitive this year, and we have a brit on top of the championship :D

    Last time I went to Silverstone, Freddie Spencer won. Of course in those days it was only a fiver to get in and you could wander around the pits and be ignored by Kenny Roberts or stand on the pit wall and listen to the Japanese going 'pfft' as someone backed off going around Copse :)
