The Tech3 bikes will be predominantly black, with yellow and white.

I was wondering when they'd finally be revealed, it's one of my life's great imponderables and I cannot thank the author of this piece of news enough...

Well for the likes of us that are in the know and have already seen both bikes - the Suzuki is more or less what you'd expect and the Tech 3 is now predominantly black with yellow and white.

This has been the looooongest off season ever. Next year GP needs to cancel one of the preseason tests and start the season earlier, WSB will be 3 rounds in by the time the GP season starts.

Someone mentioned before that Toseland is sponsored by Red Bull. Should be a serious splash / clash of colors and messages.

You can see Toselands redbull helmet in the pic associated with the article. I think team sponsors are deemed more important than riders personal sponsors and I doubt both competing companies want to be associated with the same person he'll probably have to back out of his redbull contract. That'd be my guess. They are rivals in the energy drink segment of the market, no way will they have both together. It'd be like having Budweiser and Coors sponsor the same bike/rider. Would never happen.

Red Bull may pull their sponsorship on Toseland. Although it's obviously a conflict of energy drinks, the real reason (unfair as it may be -- because expectations are high) is that Toseland isn't living up to expectations. Though rumors expect to have Edwards leaving the team at the end of the season, it may be Toseland who in fact exits.

Damo i wholeheartedly agree mate! its painful...even Bob has given up trying to post.Mind you Crash's site is not exactly bug free at the moment

Well there's a surprise. Someone stepping up to spread defamatory comments about Toseland. Wonder how 'inside' Moto GP this person really is.
