It's got to be an improvement over that hound he rode in the first round.

Can i just point out that i never claimed to be a Spanish rider fan at all, I just had a pop at Hayden, e.g. much testing all winter and race 1 gets hammered by his team mate who's not tested a thing! yeee-harrr you mother line-dancers!!!

Nicky kicked ass on the 990...back when MotoGP bikes were still built for MEN to ride, not midget machines built around 110 pound robots... You Fkn morons can rag on Nicky as much as you want, He has more heart and integrity than anyone else in MotoGP today. Stoner is a class act but even he has been know to throw a fit if things dont go his way, Nicky just swallows his pride, lowers his head and keeps on charging.


and before any of you reply to this think long and hard about what i just said.
Melandri=crybabybitch
pedrosa=thesame
caprossi=toldforthi****
Rossi=things not going his way he runs and hides.
etc.etc. :-o

I was riding a 1924 Indian 8valve with Nicky at Goodwood in 2005.
We had a good chat at the top of the hill and I asked him why he had not beaten Valentino. I said he puts his pants on one leg at a time like you and me.
Well I reminded him Rossi was racing in his back yard next week so go kick his ass.
I was very happy when that happened. The Honda crew were very polite and intersted in the Indian. They even started it with their Honda Go kart wheel for me. I could hardly hear my bike as Honda had their racing 5 and 6 cylinder 60s racing macines reving up next to me. I am a little worried for Nicky as there is a 50% chance that the 1909 will have no brakes. Google 8valve to see the 24..

It's funny that some have been slagging Haydens ability to develope a bike.
It was the bike that Pedrosa was riding that came in 3rd in the last GP and Hayden was on last years dog.

Almost everyone is willing to praise Pedrosa's ride yet seem to forget who did the hard yards to develope the bike he was riding.

Being one eyed just makes you one eye from being blind, open the other one up a try to be objective.

Stumpy never mind being blind, you need to take those blinkers off. You just don't get it do you, you bang on about Haydens hard work but don't realise its all in vain as his ability to develop the machine is zero. Putting in all those hours and laps means zilch if you get nothing in return and that sadly is what Haydens development is about, riding around learning or developing nothing.

Without a doubt Hayden is a vastly experienced rider and his reliability and consistency gave him the Supreme Crown in '06.He made it !(True Rossi had some injuries etc but even so Nicky would have been second.Wich is also Pedrosa's best result in the big boys category....

But I wonder if he's aggressive (or mad) enough to win a dogfight against red heated talented young guns? Development is not the point as Dovisiozo e.g. also finished in front of him.

I never really rated Hayden. Don't get me wrong, he's a good rider, I just don't think he's great. Even in his WC year, I think he won because Rossi lost it. Wasn't that the year that Yamaha started developing it's pneumatic valve engines. Rossi has a lot of DNF's because of engine failure. Nicky was on the next best bike and Dani was in his first year. I think he lacks the killer instinct.

Nicky has a massive heart and a good heart unlike that prima donna with the massive ego and girly yellow helmet.
