Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Nori will be doing to the Duc what he's been doing to the Yami,...CRASHING it. [cheeky]

I think next season the man to beat is Kiyo.   That guy can ride.  [popcorn]

I love watching Haga race because he has no fear riding right on someone's back wheel, rubbing up against them, whatever it takes to win. He simply hangs it all out, all the time and I realy love watching that. The fact that he does it cleanly is even better.

Why does everyone say this?  Even the announcers say it, but I've seen Haga take out PLENTY of riders.  I'm sure Biaggi and Kagayama think differently.

He was leaning on Bayliss in race 2 this weekend.  Impressive and exciting as hell to watch, but I wouldn't call it clean. :-\

Was that who Max tangled with before he eventually crashed...crashed is putting it mildly.

You know why Max crashed?  Haga ran into his front brake lever.  Max did all he could to not pull a Sete and take out the entire field.

I've seen guys go down from that scenario...in person.

I don't understand the mechanics of someone running into a brake lever from the rear and causing a crash.

I'm completely serious.

the only way it works from behind is if the lever isn't there anymore  when you try to brake for the upcoming turn.

i saw that once at texas world speedway. guy on a muzzy raptor passed somebody up high on the banking around the outside, so close that he took the guy's brake level w/ him.

guess what? he didn't make turn 1.
