I hate to say it, but Xaus looks pretty good....

I love seeing Kleetus in his Erion Honda leathers out there on Daddy's Proton. Next year is his wake up call. When he starts going backwards, what's he gonna say? "Yeah well the machine just isn't there, in fact it's a pile o'crap. My daddy needs to work harder!"

Why does Xaus always look like he's about to toss his bike into the weeds?

'Cause old habits die hard? Not saying anyting bad about the man, I think he is a good rider. But he has been prone to bin it.

i agree with all of the above! i am anxious to see how Kurtis' personality will be received in Europe. Maybe i'm old-fashioned but he seems to have bad manners. i feel as though he will quickly offend and be hated by all. i don't mean to pick on him, i mean, i'm happy to be able to root for five Americans (and one Texan) Ma prayers are for Colin Edwards to do well in '04 and bring "it" home in '05.

Re: Colin, Kleetus, Sete, Duc testing vids

It will be very interesting to see how Kurtis reacts to being a backmarker. He's gotta know that he's racing for the final points-paying position a lot of the time. A top ten is gravy. I doubt we'll hear very much though. All the focus is usually on the front of the pack unless you read RRW or something similar that gives you the whole race. I mean honestly, isn't it pretty easy to forget that Kenny Jr. was World Champ in 2000? Now he's just a moving chicane.

Agreed, Colin looks very comfortable already. Much smoother than the others. Can't wait to see what Rossi has.

Oh yeah, thanks for the vids

Kenny senior was disliked by all in the Paddock. His nickname was the "Yellow Gnome". I suppose the tradition will continue . . .

Man, the honda just sounds so cool when it's rolling into and out of the corners. Love how the tone drops and picks back up.
