MotoGP Silly Season SHOCKERS! + A Riding Skill That Could Save Your Life!

Quiet silly season? Kinda. Dave and Brian dig into the few real MotoGP seat moves (Miller, Oliveira, Zarco, Morbidelli), the sponsor politics, and why 2026–27 will flip the table. Then we veer delightfully off-script into design/aero (bounding-box rules, dirty air), BMW/KTM rumors, and finish with a mini masterclass on front-tire grip, trail braking, fork depth, and why you cover the lever with two fingers. Grab a coffee and ride with us.Chapters:0:00 – Intros: Dave & Brian set the table. 0:41 – Why this year’s silly season is quiet (contract sync). 11:55 – 2027 changes: Pirelli tires, no ride-height/launch devices, 850cc. 12:24 – Bounding-box aero limits & Yamaha’s V4 packaging angle. 14:13 – Dirty air & safety concerns from aero wakes. 15:04 – “What would you change today?” → kill ride-height, reduce aero. 23:16 – Prettiest MotoGP bike?
