Was watching the one of the Isle of Man races....the Relentless supersport 600cc event I think. Well there was Rossi on the new R1 cruising around the course....he was interviewed when he got done w/ his celerbratory lap. He stated how much he loved the new R1 and that it had the same power as one of earlier MotoGP bikes.....etc, etc...question is: how many Yamaha's, either R1 or R6 or any model did he sell by making that statement? If anybody can have a positive affect on "What wins on Sunday, sells on Monday"..Rossi can....now if he only rode a Ducati!
