A friend of mine told me Rama 9 have one on display now
Yup they are showing it off on FB & joking guess what is at the Rama showroom

(Did see a Maico once)
A Maico was the trickest bike I owned during that period.
It was a special Maico 250cc Radial head or sunburst as we called it
It was also one of the first bikes of that time to have the two rear shocks moved halfway up the swingarm
Modified by a shop called mike's Racing Center in California
Was a good bike & my hero of the day Ake Johnson rode one too
The pain was the Bing carb they came with. Much easier to tune a Mikuni
The other oddity was having the chain on the right & the kicker on the left
Looked a lot like this one

Cal has got to get a better start, maybe he doesn't enjoy the full fuel load. Good results in all 3 classes to keep interest going in the championship. Wait with baited breath to see who starts in Laguna
Yes that fuel is what I am thinking too on his starts.
Also Marquez is lucky he is as aggressive as he is in passing that he got around Bradl
quickly. Bradl is a good rider for sure but was riding above himself naturally as it was his home GP.
But after a lap or two of adrenaline wore off he kind of was inadvertently holding up Rossi & Cal
which really helped Marquez.
If Cal does get a good start one of these days I think it may make for a great race as his lap times show
he is more than capable of staying with the factory boys.

You know I was an an Obama supporter, but after learning about a lot of what happened here including some allegations of special prosecutor misconduct, I am really starting to question who our president really is and what is going on here.
A President like a judge should never be commenting on any case period.
Especially before a case is even tried!
Obama always talks a good race during campaigns about getting everyone together but, things like this & his comment about
voting to get revenge in the last election, does not coincide with his claims of wanting unity in America.

Kind of odd timing with Kawasaki bringing in the 800 4cyl too though
Well if nothing else Thailand is getting more choices yes

sports use, going head to head with the Ninja650....
An inline four sounds good to me and if i had a choice between my 2012 two pot or a inline 4 from Honda i think i'd be riding something other than a green bike right now
That would be interesting! Wonder what frame/suspension they will use???
If it is a 650 it is probably not going to be a RR type version.
Which begs the question why even worry about working out a 650 4cyl when they have a very good 600 4 cyl designed already ?
Probably some kind of CBR 650F type model or maybe something more naked?

Just in Pedrosa will not race today in Germany !
-
Yes, it will an interesting, although slightly depleted, race.
If Dani does start I can't see him running at the front.
Rossi could be on for a consecutive win, if Marc manages to stay on he will be at the front. Watching him slide the bike around corners during practice was awesome.
What a great qualifying ride by Alex Espargaro!
How good would it be if Cal wins? I think the last Brit to win in the top class was Barry Sheene in 1981.
Come On Cal
Come On Rossi
Yes I was really impressed by Espargaro & the Aprilia
running right up there now.
This track seems very odd to me when watching the slow motion shots.
The camber on some of the turns seems so odd.
Could just be the views

^ He said online and nowhere that is legal is it online for free.
I actually do not know
I know these days online has many bounce of local TV stations
So if a local TV station allows its bounce is that also considered illegal?
I really do not know the answer
This is a list of all the stations that broadcast the races.
Many are not pay per view so I am again not sure regarding the laws

Actually you can watch free if you do not mind foreign languages like
Spanish/German etc as the announcer.
Just depends on where the race is hosted
But many local stations cover & the Spanish ones I actually like better
than the official MotoGP channel because they have some very cool GUI deals they put
on screen showing lean angles/speed/gear/rpm etc.
Also if you just get Eurosport 2 either on your TV or internet it is usually broadcast via London
so you need to check time differences (6hrs) & listings via a place like this
Notice they are basically 6 hr behind us so they start at 6:25 our time so they are in fact a slightly delayed broadcast
Anyway just google & you will see many local stations.
If you have a good connection they can be very nice
EDIT: Ooops I just looked at that Eurosport2 link & see that one is Live today .....

Yes they are opened on Sunday till 8 or 10 pm from around 1.
Great enjoy, was wondering if you are free to meet up but its okay.
Odd hours eh?
I would have been happy to meet up with you to ride or even rode part way back with you to CR
if only it wasn't tomorrow
Next time?
-
It all looks really painful.
Marc on pole, then Cal and Vale.
The door, as it seems, is wide open again.
Yeah you know inadvertently this could make for a very interesting year.
In a sense if Pedrosa is out it will shake up the standings & not let him get too far
in front of Jorge.
Then Cal & Rossi now have interest & of course Marc was always right there
Yes could be interesting tomorrow. I kind of think Ped will be ok albeit starting back in the pack but the
track is mainly all left turns & that seems to be which shoulder he hurt

Well I called today again finally got a hold of the mechanic, going to pick up my bike tomorrow around 4-5pm. What are you up to mania at that time?

But I will surely be home by 4-5pm because tomorrow is MotoGP at Sachsenring
Moto3 -4pm
Moto2 -5:20
MotoGP -7pm

It looks much better in black
Yes it does
You thinking of trading up a size Karlos?
-
That was a great Qualifying & should be interesting tomorrow!
-
Hi Mania, did you take those pix's with a camera phone?
No not my pics actually
They were on FB
-
Pedrosa just got off hard in FP3 & immediately grabbed his left collar bone/shoulder
which he came down very hard on.
Man this track is taking its toll
-
He died in 1998 which was probably the last time you said anything funny as well.Try not to be stupid.
Ah there ya go.............true to form Henny
Poor Yosh.............whoosh eh?
To be "The Henny Youngman of this Forum" does not require you to be the actual Henny......... kao jai mai?

Yes Bultaco was famous for trials but also some great MX bikes
The Pursang comes to mind
But they were at a time when the Big 4 was really starting to make a moves in the dirt with the Yamaha YZ & Honda Elsinore lines
Suzuki with their RM's & Kawasaki not as much with their Centurians I think they were called
-
Try not to be stupid.

That was fast, two posts and the original assertions are dropped and its deflect, distract, lets try a new tack already
Fast because the truth does not change.
Neither did I change any assertions they remain the same
It is all there for you to see lots of it history & facts.
I only was warning you not too look if you dont want to see.
Your pretty set in your simplistic left vs right views & it may upset you.
I will leave you & it at that

Who doled out the money?
Who trained them?
and in any way directed him?
Don't turn on the lights if you don't want to see.
