[QUOTE="Pterodactyl, post: 1124513, member: 76805"] I've always liked Rossi, but my favorite shot of him was when he refused to ride the TZ750 flat tracker at the Indy Mile. In 2009 Kenny Roberts made 3 laps on the bike. He had raced it once back in his younger days and won the race. Afterwards he said, "They don't pay me enough to ride this ." He never rode it again in competition. At Indy he rode flat out and claimed he had not ridden a motorcycle for a year (if I recall correctly). When he was done Roberts motioned to Rossi, who had accompanied Roberts to the race, to get on and take a lap. Rossi declined the offer; smart man. The video is on You Tube. [/QUOTE]
