Here are the results of ltxcn.top's poll asking which MotoGP bike of the four-stroke era you would choose to ride, if given the chance to ওtry just one.

Two bikes stood head-and-shoulders above the rest in terms of capturing yourꦆ soul: The triple title-winning V5-powered 990cc RC211V headed the list with 31.1% of the vote, followed closely by the multi-race-winning 990cc Ducati Desmosedici on 29.5%.

The 990cc Yamaha M1, which Valentino Rossi won the world champi𒁏onship with in 2004 and 2005, was only third best (16.6%), although Yamaꦛha can claim to have built the most desirable of the 800cc bikes.

But the 800cc M1, in fourth place, only gained ꦓ7.2% of the vote, sending a clear signal that th🍨e smaller machines just haven't had the same 'wow' factor for fans.

To underline that𓂃 point, no manufacturer received more vot🍬es for their 800 than their 990.
