The new Honda motorcycle deal includes $250 Honda Dollars on purchase of every TRX90, CRF150F, CRF50F, CRF80F, CRF100F and CRF70F.

Honda Customers will then be able to spend their Honda Dollars in various ways within the dealership at the time of purchase, this can include servicing, accessories or even as a discount off the bike.

Honda motorcycles also offer an added sweetener, any customer that finances their new mini bike through Honda MPE Financial Services will then have their Honda Dollars doubled, that's a total of $500 to be spent in store.

For those potential customers out there who may be thinking a new mini bike would be a great addition under the tree at Christmas, you will be pleased to hear that Honda is also reintroducing the ever popular lay-by scheme, the lay-by scheme will allow customers to pay for their new additions in installments.

Tough day at the office for World Champion Valentino Rossi
valentinorossilemans.jpgValentino Rossi was confident ahead of Le Mans, but unfortunately after a crash early on coupled with three bike changes and a ride through penalty it proved to be a tough day at the office for the reigning World Champion as he finished with zero points.
 
Fiat Yamaha's number one draw card ventured into pit lane four times at Le Mans, three times he went in to change bikes and once for a ride through penalty, this was a result of a speeding infringement in pit lane, Rossi appeared to get his strategy wrong as he suffered what would prove to be a costly fifth lap crash having made an early switch onto slicks. A fortnight ahead of his home race at his beloved Mugello circuit the Italian superstar has now slipped to equal second place in the standings and it is now his less fancied team mate Jorge Lorenzo that sits on top of the MotoGP championship standing by one point, courtesy of his magnificent win at Le Mans.

Rossi had this to say in reviewing his race “I had difficulties from the start and I really could not ride my bike to its best. By the fourth lap I felt that I was quite slow and that I couldn’t ride as I wanted. I decided to change bikes early because usually this strategy pays off. I knew that I had to warm the tyres up a little bit but I crashed anyway in that corner because at that point the track was still wet and I just didn’t ride into it in a calm enough manner.”

“Last time out was my best race with LCR, so now I want to build on that and get as consistent as possible. It won't be easy of course, but at least we know we’ve been working in the right direction so far.”he said.

Randy de Puniet also added “Racing at home in Le Mans is always something special,” “But I can’t get carried away, I have to keep my focus and just treat it as any other race. However, obviously getting a good result here would be a great feeling.”

Nicky Hayden struggling with fitness and set-ups

nickyhaydenatjerez.jpgThe Jerez Grand Prix proved to be yet another forgettable race for former world champion Nicky Hayden, who appears to be out of luck in MotoGP at the moment.

The Kentucky Kid struggled all weekend to find rhythm and a good set-up for his Desmosedici GP9, as Nicky Hayden attempted to bounce back from his heartbreaking first lap crash at Motegi caused by rookie Yuki Takahashi one week ago.

The Kentucky Kid was hindered by his physical injuries sustained in that heavy crash in Japan and his high speed accident at Qatar in qualifying on the first weekend of the MotoGP eason.

Despite the Americans determination and love for hard work Nicky Hayden was only able to manage a fifteenth place finish, the solitary point he earned leaving him 17th in the general standings, only three rounds into his factory Ducati career.
