1992 Yamaha YZR500 'Wayne Rainey'

            Wayne Rainey rode this Yamaha V4 two-stroke to his third consecutive MotoGP World Championship in 1992. This weekend the US legend rides the bike for the first time since his career-ending accident in '93. Wayne Rainey was involved in a hard-fought campaign with Kevin Schwantz while seeking his fourth-consecutive title in 1993. He was leading the championship by a margin of 11 points over Schwantz, and leading the GP when he suffered his career-ending crash at the Italian Grand Prix in Misano. He slid into the gravel trap at high speed, breaking his spine against the raked surface designed as a safety feature for car racing. The injury handed the title to his great rival Kevin Schwantz. Rainey's injuries rendered him permanently paralyzed from the chest down.
