If I was him Id be very grateful I rolled into the road and not off the edge lol
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

No idea, mate. I think the Multistrada winning has much to do with Ducati backing.

Guy Martin is doing it this year on his home built Martek Suzuki turbo.

I think that Martek Suzuki 1100 is putting out around 350bhp, that'll be bonkers going up there. (tmi)

Don't think so Blade. Martin was testing his Martek at a Cadwell track day last week.
