Spies is going to kick so much ass next year and I think Yamaha will want him on the MotoGP squad eventually. Suzuki and Honda are really going to be kicking themselves they didn't pick him up. Specially HRC.

The only threat he will have is Nori Haga, who has experience on the Duc, will have the best team, but also likes to throw himself down the track from time to time due to being so damned Japanese, Uupp, I mean aggressive!

first time on track, first time on bike, first time on Pirellis, a few tenths off race winning pace.

Does anybody have a pic or know where to find a pic of the '09 R1 in track attire?

Nevermind, found it. Ugly.

Yea,lord knows that Yamaha doesn't have a chance in MotoGp unless Ben Spies comes on board...

thats why i was saying a one two punch, we know that one cury haired guy can sometimes ride a two wheeled vehicle at a resonable sane rate and sometimes win a race or two here and there....
