Yamaha dominated the racing world this season with three world champions:

Cal Crutchlow on his YZF-R6 in Supersport

Ben Spies on his YZF-R1 in World Superbike

Valentino Rossi on his YZR-M1 in MotoGP!!!

Your right... Yamaha is not Ducati... its better!!!

Yamaha also won in the Supersport class in AMA, and James Stewart won it for them on dirt. They're having a pretty good year.

P. S. They're saying Spies R1 may be the hardest bike to ride in the WSBK paddock. haha

Crash.net comments stating that former 500cc World Champion Wayne Gardner has said Ben Spies' title-winning Yamaha YZF-R1 is the most difficult bike to ride on the WSB grid (also tested a Ducati, Suzuki, BMW, Honda and Kawasaki)! "

I have not seen that quote from a more reliable source yet though. I'm guessing it's just the way he preferred it because he's a bigger guy for a motorcycle racer, and probably not as easy to toss around compared to the others.

Correction:
Ben F'n Spies won the the Championship
any bike BFS rides wins

Rossi is a prophet
