I hope I'm wrong, but I have the impression that Honda is going to dominate this year, big time. I hope I'm wrong. I want it to be competitive.

The splits between the Honda 2 and 4 strokes are pretty slim. Also, the Yamaha has always been very fast and they claim the 4-stroke is quicker... Like you, I hope for plenty of competition. I'm really rooting for Aprilia to do a good job. After all, they were very quickly up to speed in WSB and they have more team experience in GP's

It would be pretty amazing to see Aprilia in the first 10 with little or no testing. Beautiful bike; what else from Aprilia?

I have to agree with the other posts, this would be a giant killer situation for Aprilia. I'm hoping that we get a pleasant surprize in Moto GP and Superbike as well.

I would like to see Aprilia go after the US - AMA Superbike. It's a good weekend for racing.

Love my Falco, I put on the Aprilia Racing pipes and also a airbox kit, it's a honker.

Good lean to all.
