... tyre on the z1000sx forum. I reckon I've got about 1,000 miles left on the rear M5. The front tyres seem to wear quicker than usual on these bikes so it's likely both will be changed at the same time. I'll see what the prices are at the time. I paid £200 ride in/ride out for the M5s which ...

Nice them blade track bikes.

What about Iannone though? Wow. That move overtaking two bikes was special.

After a year off bikes because I needed a car at the time, I finally got fed up with Birmingham traffic and bought a 400cc Suzuki Burgman scooter and it's ace 8) I chose it for practicality as it's just for commuting, it's got decent ...

20BHP. I watched the fast bikes on YouTube where they dynoed this they showed it almost trying to jump off the rollers and out the straps haha

Nobody's saying us mortals could ride it near its limit ,I'm just saying you could ride it and have fun on it Bsb bike or not When performance bikes tested Tom Sykes wsb they said it felt that good to ride it felt uncrashable Yeah I know that Perks and and was never thinking any of us could push ...

Isn't it actually too hot to ride bikes in the Australian summer?

Look at some photos of other standard bikes I m confident it will only be 2 or 5 mm and certainly no where near 25mm.

It's normally a couple of mm on most bikes I have owned. Some actually have a little retaining ring stopping you lowering more than a few mm.

If you can't get a manual I would have them set protruding by 2 to 5 mm.

Will be next year now as just thrown a new set of Rosso Corsa on the bike but I do fancy trying the Bridgestone RS10 they are using as oem tyre on the 2016 bikes.

Look a great fast road / summer tyre.

... could be taken over by teams seeking to join MotoGP. However KTM's arrival with a two-rider factory team in 2017 coincides with a new limit of 24 bikes, meaning some existing teams look set to disappear.

... suspect it will be available. Its the graphics on the KRT bike that spoil it. Reading the comments by the team leaders for the design, supersport bikes are on a slippery slope. He said they dont sell well enough anymore to justify development costs when asked if any of the ZX10 improvements would ...

Yes, hence the analogy

Aren't Moto2 bikes already close to 150bhp and only 150kg in weight?

I hope so but exotic materials are already heavily used on top end sports bikes. The R1M has magnesium wheels and engine cases, alloy fuel tank, carbon body work, titanium valves and crank, titanium exhaust headers and is extremely small and compact in design ...

Totally agree. The crazy thing is think how good our modern bikes are now ........leaves the question what and how can they improve although I'm sure they will

Its strange really because to me most older bikes look ..well just old. Some still have an appeal i must admit but they are few and far between. I remember when i had my Suzuki Bandit back in the day and went and test rode the Daytona. I couldn't ...

I think your right.

I'll be surprised if I get out at all much now until next spring when we get some warm weather. Maybe a couple of Short blasts will end the season for me and the bikes will be getting tucked up for winter.
