They have this old geezer ride the new bike and he says it handles like a 250. I know he might be old and slow but by the looks of him he has ridden before (and the video shows him, or someone that looks like him, probably a stunt double). If this bikes handles that good I can no longer say the Ninjette is the fastest in the corners. That's depressing!

I think I know that guy from years ago, he use to work with a Gardner called Wayne, lots of talk about 2 stroke whipper snippers from what I remember.

Some other guy called Mick turned uplater in the season but I can't remember him Doohan much to help the others out.

But then Im old and my memory is failing.
