mark my words, he will literally never win on a ducati

first for Honda the best

but I posted jorge lorenzo, not valentino rossi

But Valentino would easily win on this bike.

>italians
>winning anything
is this bait

Early for consider a Yamaha friendo

just like last time he was on the ducati right?

guess they both need their 2 unsuccessful years on the ducucky

That bike was shit.
We already won so much is racing that we're bored now.

if it was so shit whycome stoner won so much on it?

is rossi just a much worse rider than stoner?

Lmao no

It was a very different bike.

If Rossi is so shit how come he managed to win 9 world championships and was always faster than all his teammates and at 40 years is istill competing for the championship?

>It was a very different bike.

GP10 is essentially identical to the GP11

What can I do with my honda?

Trade it in for one of these supreme machines

Vape, brah

really makes you think

Why are there no American MotoGP bikes? Doesn't Harley have the resources to field at least one bike if they wanted to?

Murrika can't into racebikes. See Buell for proof.

Because Americans don't want American sport bikes, as cool as they usually are

Where did you do this?

>americans can barely into fat, slow sofas that can't turn

Gee, I wonder why?

They can't even build street bikes, the concept of americans competing in racing is simply laughable, why do you think they have their own sports? They can't win at anything relevant.

it' s called "profiles" I think

Flat track is extremely relevant

Pretty accurate.
t. Speed Triple owner.

that's an extremely common word to try to narrow google

...

Hahahahahaha.
Haha.

>be yuropoor
>get run over by "refugee" on your way to renew your oxygen license

Do Suzuki.

>an American Racing team is dominating flat track.

Americans have little interest in sport bikes, Harley makes a shitload of money without needing to innovate.

Sad really.

>flat track is extremely relevant
In nowhere except USA.

>be american
>get run over by stacy in her CUV she got for her sweet 16 while texting

I'm American and I want an American Sportbike!

Americans can win at racing if they get pissed off enough to actually try. Look at the Ford GT40

Which is the breast bike?

Please refer to

>Harely makes a shitload of money in government bailouts

FTFY

...

Isn't USA the Land of Opportunities?
Start a new bike brand.

>Rossi isn't shit
let me know when he competes on the IoM

>drive

Go vote, new poll because I was dumb and didn't anticipate so many fake emails

>motorbike industry's biggest market
>bike manufacturers would collapse without us
>yuros think they can talk shit

I would love to, but I'm not wealthy enough.

>motorbike industry's biggest market
I think you forgot a large part of Asia

sorry, it just bases it off brands, I'm only posting the interesting ones for a reason y'all requested suzuki.

>Put KTM in the UK version get this
>Put KTM in the USA version
>it autocorrects to KFC

>>drive
If you're so relevant how come all the brands need to comply to euro regulations each new season?

If you really did, and if Americans really did, Buell or even would still be in business.

Dirt track is big everywhere because unlike MotoGP, an Everyman can afford to race in it and move up the ladder.

The past history is Americans don't want it, especially with Japanese domination.

Try Aprilia

>a bunch of 125cc cuck bikes being sold with next to no margin to street vendors in the jungle

>Dirt track is big everywhere
But it's not.

or MV

>motorbike industry's biggest market
not true
>bike manufacturers would collapse without us
not true
>yuros think they can talk shit
not true

fake news

Mostly because Europe is more stringent, and it's easier to engineer just one bike.

I truly want to know that feel tbqh

It's big in the UK and you can find a healthy series in the two other countries that actually matter in Europe that I checked

>unlike MotoGP, an Everyman can afford to race in it and move up the ladder.
Exactly what people don't want. I want the crop of the creme, not some redneck.

Because they need to conform to the most stringent regs . . . Which happen to come from Europe. . .

U dum.

>it exists in 3 countries in a continent
>it's big

Then get yourself a Harley and compete with the big boys. The top level of any racing discipline is hard and competitive.

I only looked at three. I'm sure it's in every country. I don't care about checking the prominence of motorcycle racing in Greece or romania

already have, not enough samples. Not in the db.

If the norms are such a problem that even Honda stopped producing the CBR600RR why aren't they renouncing the market all together?
Because we're more relevant than you like to think, that's why.

statista.com/statistics/606311/motorcycle-sales-projection-globally-by-region/

Western Europe 3030

NA 1930

Even we alone buy more than you, kek.
Murrika land of cagers.

Chances are most rednecks are better riders than you, its all about skill not where youre from.

Some racing requires a sponsor to even afford to race.

Even if it exists it doesn't mean it's big.

>Mostly because Europe is more stringent

not true, american volume requirements are lower for starters which is why every superbike makes less power in the USA than it does in the EU, the most egregious of which is usually the yamaha R1 which sometimes drops close to 20 hp on arrival to the USA, that drop is what the famous zx-10r Gen 4 wire mod reversed for example.

kit kat, mane, you need to educate yourself before you try and educate others.

It was big in the countries I checked. It's foolish to think literally the least expensive way to race is not competitive on a continents with a pretty big wealth disparity, and a huge affinity for motorcycles.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean everyone else doesn't like it.

People that travel and study (even if only about racing) from the age of 5 and win can't be rednecks.

Nobody gives a shit about the 600cc class anymore.

>w-we're relevant because our paternalistic, authoritarian government finally made a bike's production unprofitable

>People that travel and study (even if only about racing) from the age of 5 and win can't be rednecks.

600 are probably the most bought bikes, only people buy them used.

Whoa, you can actually read!

Well that's gay. True though, biggest culprit is right here though.

also you're wrong again about flat track anyway, it's not the same, the rest of the world (especially EU and AU) likes SPEEDWAY and dirt track and they do it on either dirt bikes like 450s or speedway bikes.

America is the only country that does it on the harleys and what not which is what your point was and again, that's only relevant to the USA really.

youtube.com/watch?v=Xb2pj76HqKk

enjoy, it's far better than american style flat track.

>You know what to do with your Honda

win, as we usually do

Rate my beginner bike

>stats from over 20 years ago

Here all I can find about it is that it's big in the US.

We use normal tracks for cheap racing.

Lol you're the guy that bought the VMAX? Lmao how is it?

K eurotard.

I really hate people like you, thinking that because you live in a city surrounded by people it makes you better than anyone else.

>mfw that's me and i own a ktm

It's pretty OP. Already used to the power, I've been ruined. No other bike will ever be the same.

t. Cleetus

Shithandling overpowered 90 crap. Very clean.

>tfw local council raised my bike's displacement tax
>sex with wife license fee 2 months in arrears
>daughter is dying slowly of tooth decay while in line at government hospital

Help, /dbt/!

it's uhh, not that powerful by todays standards actually.

About the same as a 600 but weighs a lot more.

>overpowered
What did he mean by this?

Well that's good. Do 600s have infinite torque though?

Never said anything like that. Nigga you drunk.

I yeild to the gentleman in the fedora for his superiour culture.

>letting your daughter eat shit food and having her brush her teeth
Americans.

That frame and suspensions aren't good enough for effectively use the 140hp.

Lotta talk about murica up in this thread. I like it

Even better, they have torque when it actually matters, when you go fast.

That sounds bomb

Real American food is barbeque or Creole though, excluding the high-end stuff that is amazing but most yuropoors couldn't conceive of affording on their monthly government stipend

Not arguing with that but I think the suspension was upgraded on it.

Bigger forks, a rod that connects the front and back (sway bar?) and better tires than stock.

Having torque at all times is more fun though. I overtake in 5th gear.

Bikes don't have sway bars or linked suspension. Post a closer picture of the forks but odds are it's stock

lèl, i daily eat dishs that you pay 100 bucks in restaurants and probably are shit anyway to the originals.

t. Mario

Shit was on point man.
How's the new bike my dude?
