Re: It's all over the front page

Apparently the Police are not looking into this.

Not sure why as I thought road rage and threatening the public with violence would be an offence ?

Re: Road-going Honda RCV unveiled

The sports kit is for track use only.

Only problem is the exhaust in the sport kit is noise tested at 116dba so it's not going on any trackday soon unfortunately.

Which sort of makes it a very expensive and shiny paper weight (blush)

Re: Quad Bikes on the road

Tragic that 4 young people died and a child is without there father. Live is special and fragile.

Re: Quad Bikes on the road

I think they're used under old laws which were to do more with agricultural machines, to allow farmers to drive a tractor on a public road without having to get a motorbike licence or wear a crash helmet.

Re: Quad Bikes on the road

I'm shocked they're allowed on the road at all!? The pictures weren't exceptionally clear, but with 4 people killed I'm assuming it was a side-by-side type? Regardless, while some US states allow them to be registered, mine doesn't, for this ...

Re: Quad Bikes on the road

Quad Bikes on the road

I've never been a fan. I know I'm an old grouch but they do seem to attract a particular type of owner. Sadly 4 people have lost their lives after one was involved in a crash http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3251800/Pictured-Four-friends-died-16th-birthday-party-tragedy-sports-car-hit-unlicen...

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

... I was assessed for the first part which the observer said I was refreshing to watch but I seemed to scare him a tad from my positioning on the road where no road markings where! I followed up with the argument of I was positioned there to gain best view and to however when I realised they were ...

Fitted a sigma on my bike. Great bit of kit and transformed the bike making a huge difference on corner entry even on the road.

Any problems just ring Neil Spalding really helpful guy and great customer service.

Re: Road-going Honda RCV unveiled

The panigale r exists as you can only enter 1200 vtwins so the 1299 isn't eligible.

The rcv road bike is virtually a customer spec rcv so pretty much a race bike ready to go but it will never happen I was only kidding around.

Re: Road-going Honda RCV unveiled

I thought there were rules as to what can and cannot be changed now and much of the race bike has to be very similar to the road bike in terms of components. Isn't that why there is an R1-M and a Panigale R? To homologate race parts for WSBK. Rumours are the Panigale R may be getting ...
