Over the hill and far away
King Kenny rode Laguna on an M1. And hated it.

MotoGP. LOUD, BABY, LOUD!
Laguna Seca saw Valentino Rossi reunited with Jerry Burgess, who had missed a couple of races to be with his recuperating wife

Irony, MotoGP-style: all those super-advanced electronics, and HRC fit a cheap-ass analog tacho

"There's no paper" ?
Fantastic pictures, as
Fantastic pictures, as usual.
But what's wrong with an analogue tacho? Never liked the digital ones myself :)

Analog tachos
Exactly. It's the digital ones that are are actually cheap-ass. And crap to read too. Well done HRC.
I like the sunflower above
I like the sunflower above Nicky's head ! And the tachometer too !
Honda dash
I prefer analogue tachos too, but love the Playstation buttons next to it!
Tacho!!
Glad to know that people still prefer analog tachos. Me too like them.
Impressive as usual
Great shot of the D16's rear wheel getting the hurry up. The analogue tacho is an absolute peach and in my opinion has huge advantage over a digital readout in terms of human eye,hand co-ordination.
Uuuh ? let's see am I shifting at 15755 RPM or 15642 RPM ?. With the analogue you know that you are about on target...15400-15800 is the zone. So quick and easy to know where you're at...at a glance. PS : the numbers mentioned are merely an example.
So Kenny Roberts hated the M1?
I don't remember reading about it so I will have to search for it.
Great pictures as always - and analog tachs for life, nothing beats a sweeping needle

thank you sir!
you the man!
Concerning the tach
Does anyone know if it is just Casey with the analog tach? Did Dovi and Dani run it as well? HRC and Honda as a whole love the digi tach (see the S2000 and most of their model lineup).
God I miss racing.
