To be fair if you could buy a roadbike that did 220mph would you really give a monkey's what it looked like? :D

Re: Helmets

Duke I know you have the AGV Corsa but what are your thoughts on the AGV Veloce ? Basically the same helmet as the Corsa and Pista but more road orientated. It doesn't have the rear bolt on spoiler and is less pointy at the chin bar but otherwise identical to the pista and corsa helmets. It ...

Gutted for your Dad Rossgo. We all make mistakes from time to time and it's so easily done. Hope he's back on the road soon.

Sounds like Honda may be developing a RVF V4 road bike with a monocoque frame like the Panigale, to be released as a more affordable (than the RCV) Honda sports bike According to patents filed by Honda recently.

Re: Hello all

Hi mate, and welcome.

I've got an aprilia RSV for the road and I love the laziness, but it's a handful on the track. I've recently picked up a 600 for the track and it's much more fun.

Re: Tyco BMW S1000RR Replica

I think the new bike has a much improved mid range and better gear ratios and is now quite a road weapon with a good wallop of torque to throw you out of corners Si.

I can feel a test ride coming on (lol)

Re: Too many traffic lights

... but go one step further than them, they turn them off at about 22.00 iirc, turn our lights off when traffic flow drops below a certain level - the roads concerned already have traffic flow counters or cctv, it's not too difficult and could ease our road system a fair bit. Just a thought.

Re: Too many traffic lights

... Von Grumble had a video up about this, he said a city turned off all their lights and people became better drivers paying more attention to the road. As we have lights we trust them to do the ur job for us, eg if it says green we go...but do we really taken in all of the information around us ...
