Indy MotoGP
« on: August 11, 2015, 08:55:13 AM »
Got back last night from the Indy MotoGP, what an experience. Camped with Dave Edwards, Paul Buckner & John Barnes.
I had a ball, Dave was a great host for this event being as he lives in the area. We were surprised to see that there was a Moto Guzzi/Aprilia tent with all of the models that they make. We had to drag John out of the tent as he was drooling all over the GUZZI girl.

The bikes.

I love the tech on these bikes!  My KTM has the lean sensor for ABS and TC, I have a hard time leaving this technology as I have felt it work!

Probably not as complex as the motogp bikes, but still very high tech for a street bike.
