They were busy removing the original team sponsors logos from the Motogp truck today at Silverstone.

I like racers who go for it and always go for the win rather than settle for points. Casey and to a certain extent Marquez are like this. They are true racers with that ultimate competitive streak. You enter them in any race and they will want to win it. Settling for points even when the right thing...

... black swingarm is from 05 onwards. Looks like a good mod to do but I think it's pretty hard to get hold of one. Something to think about for next year maybe. Just gave it a clean image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

I am surprised he's been offered a 2 year deal. He's a talented rider but he's prone to being rash and binning it rather than bringing his team some points

lucky to get the deal IMO, he's under performed this year. Ltt's hope he can turn around like Bradly did, or at least stay on it for Silverstone.

... when its really warm and humid they are the best kit to wear. Frankie will agree with you on that one ;) Yep bought mine on the euro trip a few years back, top notch kit, have managed to wear it a fair amount this year. Sometimes with the hoodie over the top for first thing...very nice jacket ...

Putting all that to one side, I hope he makes something of it next season, he does have the talent if he stays on.

Not making any excuses for Cal but has it been a decent ride for him this year ????

Strange as it is to say even the factory Hondas have struggled this season so maybe it's been even worse in the satellite team.

hes lucky to get a decent ride ,hes under delivered all of this year

... his last partners kids (never married but together 12 yrs before she died of a brain hemorrhage, would have been his fourth) get presents every year and visited regularly. My sister in the states have given up on him, her and I are keep in close contact. Dad would struggle to know her 2 kids ...

off to Anglesey , was going to do motogp on friday but they are charging £45 on the gate according to the website , it was £15 last year and the year before , I can't justify/afford that amount of money for a practice/test day .

Has agreed to a 1 year extension deal with Yamaha Tech3

Chilly but very bright sunshine.

What I have noticed is that the ground has never really warmed up so the tyres aren't as grippy as you would expect for this time of year.

... onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I presume there are ongoing requirements such as a minimum hours flying each year to make sure you keep the licence. I'll do a proper google later on.

... regs as this has been a clearly stated request from the kawasaki racing department with the introduction of more limited tuning on 2015 bikes this year. It's exactly what yamaha and APrilla have done with their road bikes. Semi active suspension would be very nice as it's the obvious future for ...

To be honest when I was at 675cc fest last year it was peeing it down all weekend and I was using black visor...couldn't see a bloody thing! Think that's a good idea if your going to get your monies worth out it mate...personally would only invest ...

That 5 year life span is really old advice when helmets were made out of a different material. Much depends now on the make and model, how you keep them and how often you use them. I've found some info about the lifespan of these ...

... I might try a Hypermotard at some point but with all new bikes having to be Euro 4 compliant from January 2017 I suspect that this time next year there will be some real bargains out there on new bikes as currently the new Multi is the only available Euro 4 compliant bike as far as I am aware.

Biked it into work today, wondering if I could at any point this year commute not needing waterproof textiles.

It takes longer than a year.

I guess your bags are being searched as I type this?
