This is a continuing series of the Top 10 Reasons Why the sport of MotoGP is awesome. Yesterday, I posted the tenth reason, which was the bikes.
Today, we continue with reason number nine -the exhaust note.
Each of the bikes make their own unique booming sound that is a joy to hear.
The Ducati makes a loud roar that shouts from its large rear exhaust. [Example]
The Yamaha has a very deep bellow, which holds a frightening sound like it could kill someone. [Example]
Finally, the Honda is kind of crackling shriek. [Example]
These videos really do not do the engine sound justice. It is amazing to hear them live, but that is rather hard to do on the internet. Of course, the engines sound different when the riders are circling around the track.
So here is Valentino Rossi riding the Ducati for the first time in November 2010. [Click here] (This was really big news, which I'll cover in another post...)
The exhaust notes, for making such beautiful music are the ninth reason why MotoGP is Awesome.
