      Explain...who was Marco..famous racer i take it from that pic???? Im not that well schooled on motorcycle racers. I love bikes but am not into any forms of sports.
      MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
      1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550

      NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

          Marco Simoncelli was a very charismatic Italian MotoGP racer who died tragically last year in the MotoGP race in Sepang.

          RIP Super Sic.

              I watched "Fastest" last night in his memory. They had some pretty wild footage of his racing and he definitely was a very dynamic racer. In one of his interviews he said, and I am paraphrasing here, "Motorcycle racing is like gladiatorial combat, you want to win, and you want to win no matter what or how..." He certainly had no issues swapping paint with the other riders and was intensely competitive.

              Looking back on him while watching the movie, was a bit surreal knowing that he would be dead not too long afterwards.

                                  The worst part was there were youtube videos of the actual wreck until they removed them all. It was horrific.
