So the guy I sold my R6 to converted it back into a street bike. I went to his house yesterday to pick up some of the race-specific parts he had laying in his garage that I needed to repair Sheila's bike, and he had the bike parked out front. Holy crap, I have to say I am damn impressed. It looked GOOD!

The trajectory of the bikes at the time the picture was taken clearly indicates that the Ducati rider is going to pass the honda rider in about .1 seconds, leaving the honda rider far behind in both forward progress and "style points"

Negatory. The Honda rider was taking the inside line when the blasted Ducati got in the way.

Gotta agree with Chris there Scotty.
Note the front tire skid mark from the Duc....outta control and takin' the Honda out.

Gonna disagree with you. Not on any argument of merit, but because you're holding my early season wisdom regarding the Rossi win against me now that we know you were wrong.
(and you're still going to owe me a dollar)
Capirossi #65 was actually trying to take the pass on the outside, got too close and clipped Melandri #33. This resulted in Capirossi's brake lever being pushed in locking up the front wheel. That is why his back end is up in the air. Also, this unloaded the rear suspension of Melandri causing him to crash also (IMO) :-)

Do you EVER get tired of proving me wrong Scott?
