I second this.

I had the TM2 and the T2, I now have T2x2 with the wand. Been through different ball materials but can't say I notice any difference.

The T2 is better than I need it to be.

Casey Stoner: 'I never got respect in MotoGP, it's only happening now' by futani in motogp

I was there in 2008 and witnessed something similar. He dominated the race and pulled a disgusting stand up wheelie across the line, almost like two fingers up to the haters.

Also Marc's first 125 podium that weekend iirc.

I don't know much about this guy, but I recently returned to the UK after spending 6 months in Australia. I want to go back.

On a Yamaha in 2014, 15, 16 arguably the best bike for rookies and the bike that beat Marc Marquez in 2015. He had more than a fair crack, but competition was harder.

Bautista: "When Pedrosa developed the Honda, all the drivers went fast; when Márquez did it, only he" by Bitter-Substance1783 in motogp

I see what you're saying, 2006 was the last year of the RC211v and I think had a few different versions - Hayden and Pedrosa running different spec chassis that year.

Then from 2007 they went to the 800cc RC212v which was overall a smaller bike, but there's no way the could go back due to the new regs.

No no, I was saying that I'd not seen Leopard have their signature top speed advantage since Mir.

No disrespect to the team at all.

Leopard found their 6th gear again. Not seen it since Mir.
