We have the 2004 M1 here for reference, which is useful. It worked well here last year; we won the race and always did fast lap times so it will be interesting to compare it to the new bike and it will help us to understand which parts have improved. Valentino Rossi bikecomparefast share on social
In 2002 the Yamaha was at more or less the same level as the Honda, better in some ways, worse in others.
