It had to be so frustrating for both having the “Honda Lane” on the long straights only to be out handled on the brakes and through the corners on the Suzuki.
Wayne Rainey said that this was his greatest win of all being on a slower bike and using his brains and bravery to get them on the last lap. Beattie should have won it, but Rainey and Schwantz were old hands and out smarted him in the last few corners.
Gp500 was the best, road Suzuki for years love Kevin schwantz but Wayne Rainey was a much better Rider. But Kevin schwantz won the championship that year too bad for Wayne.
This battle so tight. I want motogp come back to suzuka circuit, what Marquez can do this high-speed circuit. He brave or not, maybe little nervous for this.
@Shocking Isn't It? for sure i am aware of the displacement differences as that was my generation. My point was the street bikes of that era , which i rode(1994 CBR 900 rr , had 115hp at the wheel) . truly amazing what the engineers created and almost even more amazing is how Doohan and the rest rode the beasts(and for the trolls out there ....im not taking anything away from todays dudes) Ride safe
