I think it's interesting how each manufacturer's engine sounds unique. Wish I could find what their cylinder configurations are. I know Ducati is a V4.
What else could it be? Why would most pick V4? Has to be an advantage. I was wishing Yamaha would develop a V4 after the 2015 debacle. Seemed like Rossi power was turned down compared to Lorenzo, & the Ducati passed Rossi like he was in neutral.
Dang that suzuki sounded mad at having to wake up after winter. :) Suzuki is sounding the best. Yamaha second, Ducati 3rd, then Honda. That's just my preference though, and that's at idle/low rpm. At full speed... hard to beat that Honda scream.
@15:28 Jorge removes a visor film and drops it, then the mechanic picks it up... Couldn't he have handed it over to the mechanic or removed it when he was inside the garage?
Come on Ducati this season. That bike looks the best and sounds awesome. Cant wait to see it race. Who's the same as me, wanting Ducati to be winning races again and pushing for the championship?
I´m about to give up on Rossi, if this year he is not competitive, i'm already looking at Viñales since last year, he even faster than Rossi on preseason, i'm Wondering why? He made the biggest mistake of his career switching to Ducati team, since then, he isn't the same. Anyone think the same?
In just three years, Ducati went from MotoGP bikes with aluminium frames, no wings, to full on carbon fibre frame, swingarm, wings, programmable suspension and GP brakes - on a street-legal bike. Just WOW!
why do production versions (R1) have better sound then race tuned (M1) models?? the difference is like f1 from 2004 with v10 and f1 2016 with v6 engine
stupid ass question coming up but... why do they sit there and rev the engine up a whole bunch of times? Is it just to get the engine warmed up as fast as possible?
If it's like F1 cars (and of course it is), it is a controlled warm-up. Tolerances are for an engine at running temrature, so you won't see them revving anywhere near the red line on the stand until pistons and cyliders are close in temp. I *think* this is the reason - feel free to refute!
