NICOLA:
What are they like, Wheeliepig from the ncn ninjas site had one and only had it 6 months and said it was quite a beast to handle, is the newer one a bit more user friendly??

Well I find it a whole lot easier to wheely my 04 10 than I did my 05 636... it is a slight tall tahe the 636 so not as flickable or userfrienldy but is still small for a 10R.. the power is just so beautiful it should be in the tate on display..... I haven't riden the 06 on 10r but my friend in the dealers said its nowhere near as mean as the 04/05 but it all depends what you want.
He said it has lots the full on animal handling. but some people take that as being twitchy and uncontrollable , I find it responsive and exciting.
It all depends how you like to ride and how you like to feel the bike back.
Take Rossi and Hayden they both have ridden motorcross so are fine with bike movement under them where other would have the heart stopping moment if its not smooth.
As long as you have the suspension setup right the 10R is about the best in the 04/05 year range....

Rossi never been near the dirt apart from his bum boys. He was the first of the new breed of europeans that came through from mini-moto. And as for the best in the 04/05 year range, well thats your opinion Greg to which you are entitled. Mine is different as i rate the other 3 ahead of the 10.And yes i've ridden them all. Racing too proved that was the case also.

I love Rossi - I want to go and see him race next year abroad!!!!
I love Moto GP now, much more entertaining than WSB >:D
