Great bike pictures and videos.

Who are the other two? The racers, not Phineas and Franklin.

All 500cc champs.

Roberts. 3 times champ.
Rainey. 3 times champ.
Schwantz. 1 time champ.
Doohan. 5 times champ.

Probably the greatest generation of riders, if you throw in Lawson and Gardner too. And not to forget eternal runner up Mamola.

There will be an argument that Rossi or Marquez were the best of all time (sorry, hate the GOAT expression), but it's doubtful that there was such a deep pool of talent around at the same time when either of those two were doing their winning.

Don't forget Fast Freddie either!
Although Lawson was the first to win championships on 2 different manufacturers, and the only to win races on 3 different bikes (we're talking post 60's here btw)

Definitely wouldn't forget Freddie Spencer. Last rider to win two championships in different classes in the same year!

Saw him on his first visit to Brands at the Transatlantic... blown away by his speed on a circuit he'd never seen.

Maybe not in the correct thread.

Is the Best Of All Time the BOAT?

The road behind, is that the highway to hell?

It's a reasonable question.

Doesn't look like the M25 to me!

The bike would look better back in black.

Is that a Munch Mammut/Mammoth by any chance? (the bike, obvs...)

Indeed it is, and I think its Mr Munch about to tests those external fork springs!

Makes me wince,that....

In 1989 - 1994 we all toured France and Spain in shorts n t-shirts.
Was cool. Even hit indicated 165 on my CBR600 once.

I'd done 8 years manic racing and touring seemed safer

It looks to me like that front wheel is just starting to tuck!!
