build your own bike and the manufacturers just provide engines. That would be a sad, sad day.

Isn't that like moto2 with several engine suppliers?  Cool

Except that Moto2 only has 1 engine provider. That might be due to necessity since Yamaha, Ducati and KTM refused. In the end MotoGP should be a prototype class, not Nascar.

I read that the wrong way first time through - now I get it, no more Bridgestone.

It's organized, big bucks motorsport, so there will never, ever be a shortage of BS.

How can you know what has been said if you don't read the thread? There's a button that says NEW...click it and it will take you to the first post you haven't read.

I can't find my SLJ .gif... bang head

You really need to see it. Grin

Did you see this via an official release or just speculation?
