Finally , you have Premier Class MotoGP , 1000cc motorcycles capable of top speeds over 330 kilometres per hour . A bit quicker than your average scooter mate , and you ’ d probably have to wear brown trousers if you ever managed to get onto one of these machines . Constructors for 2017 are Honda , Yamaha , KTM , Aprilia , Suzuki and Ducati . For all classes , engines must be reciprocating four-strokes with no super or turbo chargers , and also have a maximum of six gears . All teams use Michelin tyres and have various hard or soft compounds available , depending on track temperature and whether the race in in the wet or dry . The teams were split into two types in 2016 , Independent and Manufacturer Teams , with the Open Class being abolished . These teams are also split into two distinct types- those who have enjoyed success over the previous years , such as Yamaha , Honda and more recently Ducati having a freeze on engine development
