Jesus......you must be old. Even I can't remember that far back. ;D ;D
Seriously though, Kevin was a great rider way back then.
Used to do battle with Eddie Lawson if memory serves. :y

Christ he MUST be skint, sitting there with Joe public gazing at him.
Legend though, and can still walk. :)

Well there was randy mamola, then Eddie Lawson, then Ron haslam on a cbr 1100, or Keith huwan on a Suzuki 1100, or the best Barry sheene. Just a few that i remember.

I remember the headline in MCN ..........Mick takes title number five......"Doohan it in style". :y

Them were the days :)
Wayne Gardner too was amongst them at the time, though Doohan on the Repsol Honda always got my vote :y

Have to say I lost interest when the 2 strokes finished.... remember Neil McKenzie leading at Donington years ago and the pub being in uproar :y
-
Forgot about McKenzie! Carl Fogarty had a brief sojourn into Moto GP too. Did pretty well from what I remember, though super bikes was definitely his thing.
