Frustrating as hell cause there was a sportive going on over Holmfirth and they were all over the roads nearly collected 3 of them on separate occasions. Thank God they did not go over the snake so i had a play. Slowed down to pass ...

Double demo day
... pillion seat, it can do it. It's certainly got no sporting aspirations and so it can't be a sports tourer. On paper it's cheap, heavy and underpowered. So why is it so popular?

Chaz Davies/ Johny Rea superpole incident
