I would normally like to disagree with the usually biased posts from spannerman and bambam as i know they are massive MD fans, but they are spot on, Joey is undoubtedly the finest road racer ever to date, and MD is the man to beat at present and has been for a couple of years now.

Unless there is someone with serious talent and hunger this isn't likely to change anytime soon either.

p.s would've loved to have seen Josh Brookes continue on the roads.

Agree on Josh, and would have loved to have seen Steve Plater continue (or maybe begin younger) his roads career, he'd have been a real handful for everyone, including MD.

Does anyone know what michael dunlop is riding besides the milwaukee R1?? i was listening to the interview he done on manx radio last week,and it seems like its the same type of set up as BMW,he gets a superbike from milwaukee,but the rest hes going under MD racing?

Bambam, Seems he will be running the other bikes under MD Racing. In a recent article MD stated that no decision has been made as to what other bikes he will be riding !

No doubt he knows what bikes he will be riding but seems to like the guessing game !

Yes Mike Hailwood has won TTs on Norton, MV, Ducati, Honda, and Suzuki . He won races elswhere on Norton, Matchless, BSA, NSU, FBmondial, AJS, EMC, MZ, and probably others that i have missed.

Also Phil Read on AJS, Yamaha, Honda and Suzuki, plus two 500cc World Titles on MV. Stanley Woods on Velocette, Norton, Moto Guzzi and Cotton.
