Most racing championships, like World Superbike or British Superbike, use produc- tion model motorcycles that anyone can walk into the dealer and buy. A MotoGP bike bears no relation to these. Built specifically for racing, these bikes are maintained to maximize their performance (no muffler, no lights, no mirrors, hard seat). Costs are highly guarded, but rumor puts a pair of Honda RCV-211V’s (as ridden by 2006 World 8 Champion Nicky Hayden) at between three and three and a half million dollars for a 9 10 one season lease. 12 3 final championship standings 11 5 6 15 Rider Country Team Points 1 aerodynamics 7 Nicky Hayden USA Repsol Honda 252 Hundreds of hours are spent testing each bike in windtunnels, to perfectly tune the Valentino Rossi ITA Camel Yamaha 247 shape of the bike in order to reduce drag as much as possible.

  • KONICA MINOLTA Honda Taken out of the Chinese GP
    Shanghai, China, Sunday 6th May, 2007 KONICA MINOLTA Honda taken out of the Chinese GP KONICA MINOLTA Honda suffered their first DNF of the season so far in the Chinese GP today, following an early-race clash between Shinya Nakano and Tech 3 Yamaha’s Makoto Tamada. The incident happened towards the end of the third lap at the tight hairpin after the long back straight. It appeared that Tamada missed his braking point and lost the front of his Yamaha M1 unfortunately taking Nakano down with him. Thankfully neither rider was injured in the crash. Shinya had made a solid start from 10th on the grid and had climbed to eighth on the first lap before dropping back to 10th. Casey Stoner won the race on the Bridgestone-shod Ducati from Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) and John Hopkins (Suzuki). The Australian now leads the championship by an increased margin. The first Michelin-shod Honda home was Repsol Honda’s Dani Pedrosa, who won last year’s race. Gianluca Montiron – Team Manager KONICA MINOLTA Honda “This is racing and these things happen unfortunately. After a good start Shinya was battling with Chris Vermeulen (Suzuki) and then Makoto Tamada (Yamaha) before the incident happened. It seemed as if Makoto lost the front at the last hairpin and crashed, unfortunately for us Shinya was just in front of him and got taken down. I would like to say that from our time with Makoto as our rider for many years we know he’s a good, clean safe rider and this was just one of those things.

  • BORN INTO RACING 60S and 70S
    THE APRILIA SUCCESS STORY BORN INTO RACING With 294 Grand Prix races won in Road Racing World Championship, Aprilia holds the record for the most wins of any European manufacturer in the history of maximum motorcycle competition. These are joined by an impressive 54 world titles: 38 in Road Racing World Championship (20 in 125 and 18 in 250), 7 in Superbike (Rider and Manufacturer double win in 2010, 2012 and 2014, manufacturers in 2013) and 9 in Off Road disciplines (7 in Supermoto and 2 in Trial). In December 2004 Aprilia becomes part of the Piaggio Group which, with the reorganisation of the Noale Racing Division, takes the Veneto-based brand to victories in World Championship Motorcycle Racing and broadens the horizons of sport activity: from the return to the off road discipline, world rally to the début – in 2009 – of the Aprilia RSV4 in World Superbike. During the same period Aprilia has also accumulated 28 World Titles and a countless collection of European and national titles. Every weekend, all over the world, Aprilia motorcycles take to the track on international and local circuits, holding high the honour of Italian and European motorcycling, feeding the biker's desire to race and raising up young riders destined to enter into the world championship world. 60s and 70s Aprilia begins manufacturing motorcycles at the end of the 60's and already in 1970 produces a motocross "fifty" which would evolve into a 125, until arriving at the first competition motocross bike in the mid 70's. After the début in the Motocross sport in 1975, Aprilia enters World Championship Motorcycle Racing to challenge the unbeatable Japanese in the extremely competitive 250 class.

The last victory of a bike without Brembo brakes in the premier class of the world championship dates back to May 21, 1995. Notwithstanding Brembo brakes are not imposed by regulation, in the last 23 years all the best riders have always chosen Brembo brake systems, with the awareness that to go fast you also have to brake hard.
