I love my speed triple, so I would say try the new one. But I'm biased.

Thruxton is meant to be good if you want a naked retro bike. Or at least just worth a demo just for kicks.

I'm sure there are other naked options come new model year if you are thinking of waiting.

<r>The NEC motorbike show is back again. <br/> <br/> I've not bothered recently but I'll be going this year to do a bit of window shopping for a possible 2017 bike for me. <br/> <br/> Not sure when I'm going yet but it'll be at a weekend. <br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.motorcyclelive.co.uk/">http://www.motorcyclelive.co.uk/</URL>" ...

... the day after I posted asking where they were on this forum :) , but does anyone know if they are doing a pit walk on the Saturday night like last year? It was only £10 last year and I thought it was great value for money, we actually got to see Rossi and Lorenzo in their garages (y)

... moo variety. In addition to the higher manufacture costs, I was told the Aussie Government only exports a certain amount of Kangaroo leather per year in order to try and make companies set up facilities within Aus for manufacturing items using Kangaroo leather - due to the limited supply the ...

Back in the airport lounge on my way to work. Bloody 2 week breaks go fast! Glad I only have to do that once a year. 2 weeks back at work then 5 weeks off! weather should start to warm up by then too!

... I know the current engine wont make more than 90 bhp so not worth a dyno. I'm planning to keep it for now but will see how the usage goes next year and then make a decision.

German magazine Motorrad reporting that it will be replaced next year.

... peoples cash. And the documentation you need to do this is not all that difficult to put together at tax time....it's takes an hour or two once a year, and I have a book-keeper do it....she does it also as a write-off (forget how)...and so it's helps everyone involved.

Don't quote me on this as its only a guess based on a conversation i had this morning but it maybe that the Panigale is replaced by a new bike next year.

These will mainly be for track use next year ( hopefully).

... the zx10r and some great deals on the 2016 bike so maybe worth ticking the litre sports bike box and having that experience even if only for a year or two. If I was going naked for fast road I would go S1000RR or Tuono v4. Out of the 2 probably s1000r as more reliable with better back up and ...

Yep, it claimed me earlier in the year and I knew it was there. But being on a much heavier bike than usual and giving it some beans meant NATO showed some interested in my flight path.

My 5 year old has always enjoyed his sport but he cant get enough of the Olympics (y) He will watch cycling, shooting, diving, kayaking, boxing, rugby, gymnastics, swimming. You name it he will watch it and enjoy cheering on ...

As the title really..

I've for a chance to do one more track day this year, and probably the last before I seek the track bike.

There are dates next month for brands hatch Indy and GP circuits. The GP circuit is quite a bit more expensive, so the question is, is it worth it ?

The bike mechanic who was seen more of it this year than I have

... false; Images have emerged of the new 1200cc V4 that Norton hopes will challenge Ducati in the premium superbike sector next year. As revealed to Bike Social last year, the new model will be powered by an all-new V4 engine that is being developed in conjunction with Sussex-based ...

Well NOT doing the census last night. The ABS decided it would be online this year. So, the whole country logging on in one day onto the same site. We had assurances it would be fine, they'd load tested the servers to 150% of demand. They didn't account for multiple ...

There sometimes sent out in batches depending on when they were purchased.

Give them a ring and I'm sure they will update you. I had the same concern last year tbh.

I can answer one of them. lol.

I don't want anything cool as its another year before I can think about swapping bikes.

Lol.. I bet you have confidence in the work they've done for you! You can tell them I got numerous trackdays and over a year of riding out of my AFAM Aluminium sprockets if you like? Did they also put the axle bracket with the adjuster lines in sideways? Had that happen to me one, ...
