... is a special oil only available from HRC Japan. This was just the oil and filter. No labour. I'm not buying that (sic)....an ex-employee had the same thing on his Porsche with the oil, and the MBZ I had needed a special filter.....sourced both elsewhere for a tiny fraction of the OEM costs....pays ...

I m pretty sure thats the same or extremely close to what Hodgons factory 999 was putting out in his title winning season. I doubt we will ever know what bhp race bikes actually produce and I bet if we did we would be shocked!! They extract ...

That will definitely be SBK spec to be putting that amount of power out. I m pretty sure thats the same or extremely close to what Hodgons factory 999 was putting out in his title winning season.

Awesome machine

... of the MT-09 i used to have, simple to ride, looks good and better set up on the suspension. it rides and feels better than the MT-09, great same pokey engine and fun. the only downside i found was the tank is now longer and is permanently in your groin, whereas on the MT-09 you could choose ...

... it has been laser-etched with the bike’s unique production number of 500. The steering head inserts shift the front wheel forward 5 mm, giving the same chassis geometry as the incredible Panigale R.. Moreover, a light lithium battery, together with carbon fibre heel guards, rear mudguard and shock ...

I can see why.I loved top gear was very entertaining in my opinion. However the new top gear they tried to keep some bits the same eg the stig introduction which didn't work with the team and tried to revamp some of the old bits eg star in a reasonably priced car....how crap has that ...

Re Farage : This is someone who went to school with him and was in the same class. Farage was a nasty piece of work at school, he was anti Semitic, racist and a holocaust denier, his claim was that it wasn't nearly as bad as people make out. He supported the ...

Strikes me that the bloke making the video knocks the BMW over. Its the same bike featured heavily in PB magazine this month.

To be fair to the RCV owner he says he bought it to use it and use it he will.

Fair play to the lad, that's very quick on a stretch of road that you can't make mistakes on, if it drifts off course just a little it'd be curtains at that speed, big balls I think.

Fwiw, I'd deffo have a go, but the same as Jack - my survival instinct may well kick in before I saw 400kph.

Ah....but you did it right mate. Had the same problem with a smoke detector and for the same reason, fecker would go off for nowt at all...had to move it out the kitchen entirely. And the same with re-wiring, which is a PITA, because according ...

taxed and insured it , insurance quoted me over £300 on the phone, said no thanks and did it online (same company) got it for £112 .

Didn't you have a similar crash around the same time but on the road into Armco? I remember that messed you up a fair bit.

Yep, I've still got the scars and the metalwork

Had a race through the traffic with a courier and I won. That's the same as beating a racer on the track. In my mind anyway. Then rode home through one of the country road routes. Although it was raining I really enjoyed the ride. Those Z8s are better in the ...

... of their supercharged engines. For a commuter they're perfect because they are potentially lighter (needing a smaller capacity engine for the same output), they're better on fuel, they'll be quieter and if they decide to go down the 3 cylinder route the bike will be more nimble too thanks ...

I had to do the same.. Donegal to Dublin in one sitting. 4.5 hours of pretty manic driving. Got to Dublin and couldn't find our way to the destination so I took the bus lane!

Enjoy the drive, ROI roads are way better than NI too

... me back up here in the house and the ex settled into her new place. She gets to hang out with her fella with the kids so I finally get to do the same now. Jess has a couple of kids the close to the same ages as mine so it's going to be cool to all hang out together It always amazes me that its ...

... to play about a bit is all good, and mugging more powerful bikes is fun but the best part of the sessions was riding against guys on virtually the same spec bikes and being there or thereabouts.. In that kind of situation you know that it's more about the rider than the machine. You also get to ...
