Ducati and Hayden wasting no time

In the past, Honda has been pretty prick ish about outgoing riders meshing with their new team before the start of the new season testing

but heres Hayden..... at Ducati dealer show already

Soup :: Ducati Dealers Get Christmas In September :: 09-16-2008

and they will start testing the Ducati after the race at Valencia!!

thats pretty cool of Honda to not give Nicky the Rossi treatment of not letting him test until next season.... either that, or lack of respect for the possibility that Nicky might beat hem next year on the Ducati, and that would be pretty dumb of Honda...im going with Honda being cool to a guy that showed class through all the BS.

im giddy with this whole Hayden Ducati thing... i think Casey and Nicky are goiung to do great. Honda might finally figure out the 800cc RC but Ducati still ahead either way and Of course Rossi will be Rossi, im talking top 3 stuff here.

I'm a Nicky fan regardless where he goes.

Well, maybe they've seen the error in the way they treated Rossi.

WOW so much hate for a person you don't know about except watching him on TV... I'm not even going defend Nicky because as far I'm concern I don't see you riding a MOTOGP bike since it's not in your list of bikes...

the truth hurts man. i am not making shite up, just pointing out rossi left and champ and a threat and nicky is leaving a chump and not likely to do the same as rossi did on the yamaha and now the haters will come talk about being patriotic

OH, you can't defend facts man, Nicky is not doing well and so far all his new hype is based upon speculation and hopes and nothing else

I believe that Casey Stoner took the title from Rossi last year. Any year that Rossi is competing, he is competing for the title.

If you don't HOLD the title, how can it be taken from u?

Please explain as there is only ONE current Champion at a time.

Your confused roadkill....Hayden took it far and square from Rossi in 06....no one can change it.....and yes, Stoner took it from Hayden in 07....either way you look at it, it's the best move for Nicky as he has no chance of getting HRC respect with the little prick teamate he currently has. Tridrosa should be the one worried about a job for next year!!

What's up with the Pedrosa pic in the background?

drsus · #12 (**permalink**) 09-17-2008, 08:58 AM

the amount of hate of nicky from you is comical at best...youre so crossed eyed about it you no longer make any sense....keep it up, its entertaining watching a grown man act like someone spit on his cool aid....

**simonkobe** · #13 (**permalink**) 09-17-2008, 11:00 AM

the ducati's very quick,good tyres,and is built for a normal sized moto gp rider(bit smaller than most of us)but the Rc212v was built specifically for the midget Pedrosa,even the 1 piece billeted handlebars,made to his specs which cost 3000 dollar a set and are chucked after every race
I know the company that makes alot of the Rc212v parts so i hear a few things.

I reckon hayden will do great next year.We can maybe thank his manager for this,as he has close connections to Italian companies.

We shouldnt feel too sad for moto gp riders,but it's been pretty tough for Nicky hayden since 2007,imagine winning the world championship for Honda,but due to money(thats the reason Pedrosa got a custom bike as Honda was sick of paying so much for the moto gp bikes,with very little return except from repsol)Honda basically turning their back on hayden.Mustnt have help.

He's very talented and gutsy,so maybe 2009 will be his year

I'm hoping for the best for Nick.
I hope he rolls in to his new team and beats up on the competition.
Nicky has been the class of the field, always taking the high road, while most of the time being undercut or back stabbed.
Everything is not about talent, Nicky has shown humanity, much more so than Stoner, Or Pedrosa.
I want him to compete at the top level just to shut you clowns up that hate on him so much.

look up hate

i don't hate Nicky at all, nice kid. I don't kiss his arese and have a opinion that he is not all that impressive against his peers and that does not make me want to kill him so i think your obsession is more of the problem

drsus · #16 (**permalink**) 09-18-2008, 12:48 AM

i am obsessed... i post a whole 20 times a year... i need to control myself.

sorry, maybe dilusional is a better fit

your first post sounds leg humpish and excuse ridden.

you sound like Nicky is a class act who got hosed and we all should feel bad and good thing big bad all screwing Honda was nice to the kid

He is paid millions to perform and from here it look like nicky was poor performing, less than steller, and made plenty of excuses(not very class act) as to why it was not his fault

he was hired as a big gun for a big team and his overall performance for a HRC type team was damn right poor and yet we are all convinced the move to the "right" team will somehow change Nicky's seemingly destined future. I do hope the change makes for better racing and would love to be eating crow for lunch as nicky shows the real talent everybody seems to think he has and the talent they want him to have but i have yet to see it as of yet.

that phrase sounds funny..but thats about it.. pretty far off the mark.

Ive yet to make a single excuse for Nicky on why he doesnt win more...not in the past and not in that post.

i dont see where i humped....anything.

And most if not all of my post is about HRC treatment of riders, all of them.

The fact that i want Nicky to do well on the Ducati is just that... if thats humping, then youre setting your standards pretty low, hate to see you too deep into the Jack Daniels at the local pub.

But like i said...funny sounding comment, you should put that in your back pocket for a better use.

i better stop now, theres still 3 month left in the year and youre going put me over the mark here....ta ta.
