Re: It's that time again

I've used these for years, they do multiple bikes too https://www.motorcycledirect.co.uk/moto ... insurance/ I'm paying a lot less than you've been quoted Kwacky. I also get the usual extras of breakdown, leathers... bikes are GSX-R 750 K5 and a 2015 Ducati Scrambler.

Re: MV and KTM join forces in North America

To be honest I don't think it's going to make much difference in the short term. MV will still supply them with parts and technical support

I think MV want to make sure that dealers know how to sell and look after their bikes. This is the start of the process.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

First ride since November. Very cold first thing but a bit less cold after a coffee and a look at new bikes.

Felt so good to be riding again and finding some nice bends.

Re: 2023 MotoGP line up

It needs Honda and Yamaha to make some big improvements to their bikes so we can see Fabio and Marquez in the mix.

There do seem to be whisperings that Marquez is unhappy with the Honda.

I keep thinking 2 bikes for how much I ride is over the top, but then I go for a blast on the Thruxton and think “I can’t sell this bike!” It’s definitely my choice for any solo ride under 2-3 hours. Much past that and my body gets ...
