| 800cc I-Pod Anyone else think that the I-Pod will be fast as hell on the 800cc Moto GP bike? I'm told that these bikes will be well suited to the 250 riding style. As an added bonus the bikes are a bit smaller and lighter and therefore more suitable for angry midgets. Also a smaller step stool can be used.
Just what I heard.  |

| Re: 800cc I-Pod There's a debate. It's been hashed. I personally don't care. Rossi isn't a midget and he's the GOAT, IMO. I think a great MC racer is the one that can adapt. This means adapting to their weight or size disadvantage if need be. The ones that can adapt further and faster will be more successful.
