I do think he will see a lot more trouble from a guy named Vale', not much from Jorge, and a whole lot more than he wants from another kid named Maverick. Remember, when he tries to pressure others, he runs into the back of them, falls off, gets frustrated when he doesn't get his way, and can scuttle his own efforts rather well.

One of the things that are essential in setting the chassis up is to get both ends of the bike completely controllable. On the rear, the ability to slide the tire at will, front, to either slide, or push that tire, and/or slide the shole bike at will. traction controls have taken a lot of that away from the riders, and with the better ones, it doesn't work as well as the old ways do.

Perhaps you could give the 2 times World Champion a few riding tips, Dave..........! I mean we are, none of us, perfect.....
