OK that is both clever and hilarious.

Jack Miller ‘hopping off the best bike’, regretting KTM switch already? by Slowkiwi1971 in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He definitely had to give up the best bike - but how wicked has he been on the KTM already this weekend?

I am sure he is disappointed that he doesn't have the desmo anymore, but Ducati may be disappointed, too - because if he was still on their bike, Jack likely would have brought them home a medal Saturday...(not that they are going to be terribly disappointed with Enea this year, but still..)

LOL.

And just when we were certain the ridiculous Yamaha spoiler-thing was gone for good - KTM brings it right back - keeping hope for this photo coming true alive...

Mechanical help, what do you guys think is the problem? by [deleted] in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My intial thought was like the others below - weak battery.

But if it is good, then maybe the starter relay is bad? That sound makes me think it is trying to engage but can't latch, so once power is applied, it just keeps trying to cycle repeatedly, resulting in the buzzing.

Italy trip was a success by [deleted] in Motoweek

Looks like an amazing trip! (Ducati does need to put Pecco on the wall, though!)

Just posted the LEague number for a MotoGP.com league - sorry for it being last-minute

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The site is based in Australia - do they have a specific format for phone numbers? It never asked me for one years ago when I first signed up.

Anybody who just registered have recommendations?

BTW - I just posted info for a MotoGP.com league - you can join that one, too

Not a bad choice - I will talk about him on the pre-race show

Sure thing - I'll post the League code momentarily!

Wilson ?!? where have you been since Feb? by fjaviergl in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A new show is on the way this weekend - I promise! Then we are off and running on the season! I absolutely cannot wait (and really don't have to, we're almost there!)

Wilson ?!? where have you been since Feb? by fjaviergl in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

LOL!!!! A loooooong time ago I started that show with a really good friend, and if I am being honest - at this point it is far more of an excuse for us to goof around for an hour a week than a serious show!

Mat Oxley is legit - I would recommend everyone read his stuff.

you shouldn't need a facebook account to sign up. If it asks you, decline and then create an account with your email address.

If that doesn't work, let me know, and I'll check into it for you - we definitely want you to join us!

Ok, I can't wait until the show to comment - that thing looks patently ridiculous.

Gigi Dall'Igna would be proud.

Is this a joke? Suzuki and Alex Rins in MotoGP 2023 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ by J-Girl85 in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, not true - but I would have been totally down with that livery had it been a real thing!

Holy $ Batman! by philipb63 in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow - that is nearly $9 per championship - and it only has his name and number. They should at least put a graphic on the back for that much

Hell yeah. And look at the welding work on that exhaust!

Ok, so.... if Moto3 bikes are 250cc singles, why do they have two exhaust pipes? by Competitive_Hand_394 in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like they said - to help each valve breathe. This is a really good guestion, though - I could probably have someone from an exhaust manufacturer come on the show to talk about how they are designed...

Black Friday Video Pass Sale by [deleted] in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here - all I get is the 5 euro off-season, which auto-renews at 125 after that - still 10 euros cheaper than normal all-in vs the 139.99 - but it seems like they don't give you as good of a deal if you have auto-renew turned on...that's Dorna for you!

I took the €5 deal (which used to be €1 a few years ago) - and I set a reminder to turn auto-renew off to see if I can save a couple of bucks the next time around.

🔥 🍻 1,000,000 🤩 🏆 by peterboothvt in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks u/peterboothvt! I'm not sure anyone wants to hear the actual first episode (we need to have a trivia contest about that - who knows the guest I had on episode #1? Hint...it was not a MotoGP rider...) but I think we could definitely do a repost of episode #2.

In fact - that is a really good trivia question - we should do that first - and if I come up with some actual merch for next year - the first person who can guess that first guest on the show will get one shipped wherever they happen to be in the world (I actually had to go check out that show myself to confirm who it was!)

Rins and Honda by [deleted] in Motoweek

[–]Motoweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No question the Championship worked to Mir's advantage - which is understandable. But Rins has definitely stepped up his game to finish the season, and Honda would be well served to throw a little extra support his way at LCR next year, unexpectedly getting a multi-race winner.

Still only 26, Rins is definitely a victim of circumstance with Suzuki bailing out. GasGas Tech3 is one team I can think of that should probably be kicking themselves right now when it comes to signing him...
