[MotoGP] 800cc bikes @ Motegi (pics)

new bikes are getting tested folks. check em out.

i sorta dig the honda, even though it makes even pederosa look HUGE. I'm liking the super shorty tail a lot too. though it makes the swing arm look gigantic.








Rossi's new ride is looking sick all as well.






I think suzuki took a step down, not looking as good as last year

I noticed that the honda GP bike had a lot of influence on the new 07's with the open fairing thing going on


compared too




couldn't find any pictures of the Duc's and i saw a video of some testing, but i can't find it right now :\

edit* vid of testing

pedrosa is a small guy @ 5' 2". prolly why the bike is gigantic. he is damn good though for a rookie. him vs rossi @ brno was spine-tingling good.

Man, that new Honda is pretty sick. I kinda of dig it how the exaust is in a new location. I'm not a big motorcycle person yet, but I'm slowly getting into it. I might pick one up soon.

Now Max you can't have two bikes, and besides you just got yours!

Haaa. . . jest messin, nice find. I'm not a bike guy, but really appreciate the designs that bikes go through. Wondering if this trend will carry through to all the other manufactures(sp?).
