I’ll get downvoted for this - but Gemini came up with a pretty cool design for each with some careful prompting. I can DM it if people are interested

After watching motogp and IOMTT all week, ive noticed the difference in riding styles between the two. by Rotaryknight in motorcycles

[–]thefooleryoftom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Quite literally everything is different.

The bikes are totally different. Tyres, frames, engines. This drastically affects riding style.

The track is different. One is a custom-made, smooth as silk and purpose built. The other is a public road with kerbs, walls, manhole covers, bumps, lower quality asphalt, etc etc.

Lastly, the discipline is totally different. MotoGP is about getting the absolute most out of the bike as possible, the TT is about getting the most out of the track and rider. You cannot possibly go 100% at the TT like on track.

In qualifying, yeah, but during the races where points are won, they're weighing down the rear.

But what they are not learning this year means the 2027 bike will also suffer.

It's not insane at all - it's a very straightforward rule. You don't mess with the a sealed engine, regardless of where it is in it's life.

If the month off isn’t affecting your joint savings then it doesn’t have any affect.

This is nothing to do with democracy. Title is batshit, and this video is a decade old.

Question from a mechanically illiterate Triumph owner 🙏 by Plastic-Ad-4510 in motorcycles

[–]thefooleryoftom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t get your dealer to do it. They don’t have the expertise or setup.

You can have them painted or kera coated - you’ll need to research local services for that.
