My dad was riding triumphs, BSA's and Nortons in the 60's, I remember staring at those photos for ages many times. So it's nostalgic for me

There's a second hand K-Tech rear shock for our bikes on motoforum.net Just a mere £800.

Sorry but these retro hipster bikes do nothing for me

... ride :) I am sooo freaking old that when I passed my test, the examiner was on foot and there was only the one part. All four of my kids have had bikes, my daughter is the only one that still rides day to day though. She's on my YBR hack until we chop it in after she passes her test. Feel free ...

Two bikes of the show for me and want them badly

Tonight me and dad have been decorating our bikes ready for tomorrow's Reading Toy Run :D This will be my 6th run, and my dads first on his new moped... then eating ice cream and wine for dinner! ...

Lorenzo's qualifying time for Jerez this year was a 1min 37 .9 still impressive times though for bikes based on a production bike.

Not many riders lined up for WSBK at the moment though.

I'm sorely tempted to try and go to the Monza race this year at the end of July.

Totally agree. Good team, good bikes and good riders. Should on paper at least he up at the sharp end.

... these get. As its dry where you are. Personally I would go for the Racetec RR K3 which is a fast road tyre. One of the journos in Perfromance Bikes got 3500 miles and a few trackdays out of a set which is pretty impressive imo. http://www.med.it/photo/1415284265PH227.jpg The Racetec Interact ...

... riding on a weekend, or a evening hoon on a school night, would be the worse, I could not be without it. I really don't understand why people sorn bikes off the road in the so called winter months! A dry sunny winters day ride is the best 8) Well in fairness a summers day of warm sticky Tarmac ...

Bikes are advancing so much and all I want is them.to build a standard 400 again. Proper screamers, screw the supercharger

I think they have had a good year with Iannone ,Dovi has struggled though no idea why.The bikes a missile in a straight line but im sure it can be improved in other areas

They had the power and the speed. Handling is the main issue but Casey likes his bikes planted so he's probably the right person to tell them how to fix that.
