I almost like Lorenzo now....

Not so much to what?

 

You’re not understanding....

Stoner-rode whatever the fuck he was given and won on each variation.

Rossi-moved mountains to in his direction. Couldn’t find their own asses

Lorenzo- struggled initially, they finally listened to his basic direction for rider comfort. Winning races

Hope that helps

 

Lol you’d call a completely different bike a “modification”?

That’s the thing.....

Rossi and his team had them turn the bike inside out to basically full failure.

Lorenzo just needed to feel comfortable.... on a bike that Dovi basically developed for himself.

My point is that Rossi got what they asked, when they asked...

The other riders, who have all had more success are riding what they were given with slight modifications.

 

bayliss wild card 2006, win.
stoner championship, 2007.

bayliss > rossi?

 

also stoner puked in his hemet and still podium'd, on the ducati.

 

Wait, didn't Rossi, "I can fix it in 80 seconds" get a completely different aluminum frame bike versus Stoner, I can win on anything, including a carbon fiber, no front end feel, bike?

 

Burgess is the one who put the 80 second time stamp on it.

 

I farted in my leathers and still kept it on 2 wheels. I am basically the same skill level as Stoner

 

It is comical reading these "debates". Stoner, Rossi, Lorenzo are all amazing riders. All have had major injuries and hopped right back on to challenge for a podium. 2006-2013 had some great racing/battles with these guys on the grid

 

I call that a different bike. Heck Harley changes much less and calls it a different bike.

 

What changed with the engine, didn't they keep the same 90 degree setup, just like Honda?

 

Lol well I’m pretty fucking sure the body and other bits didn’t just “bolt on”

So maybe he kept the forks and wheels?

Because there’s no fucking way the engine was the same as the previous year. They get better and faster each year.

 

Weren't they also still trying to stick with a 90 deg. layout rotated forward in the frame then? Memoriy is a bit fuzzy it's changed so much.

 

you know whats funny... rossi said lorenzo didnt have the balls to sign with ducati, turns out it lorenzo's balls smashing into the tank turned the whole thing around.

lorenzo's balls > rossi's balls?

 

Apparently not enough for Rossi to match Stoners pace. You would think the one that people try to call GOAT would have been able to leap over that little hurdle...

 

Stoner also said he’d return if the bikes lost all electronics ...
