Dani Pedrosa's five bikes

Dani Pedrosa’s five Repsol Honda bikes

Monday, 3 May 2010

Over the last four years, the Repsol rider has ridden the latest 990cc developed by Honda and three evolutions of the 800cc RC212V. In the attached video he offers his opinion on each.

In the 2006 season, Dani Pedrosa realised a dream: he reached the premier class of the Motorcycling World Championship in the heart of the Repsol Honda Team. He immediately became one of the favourites in his class, taking second place in his first race at Jerez, and his first win came just a little later in the Chinese Grand Prix. Runner-up in the 2007 World Championship and third in both 2008 and 2009, Pedrosa has been one of the leading players since he arrived in MotoGP.

In four years he has ridden Honda's latest developments, starting with the 2006 990cc RC211V, through the different evolutions of the Honda RC212V between 2007 and 2009, up to the 2010 version, on which he is competing this season. With these bikes Pedrosa has experienced the switch from 990cc engines to 800cc, and has had some difficult times on them as well as some unforgettable victories.

In the attached video the Repsol Honda rider talks through the bikes he has ridden, recalling his memories on each.
