If he went to Moto2 and was average, the chance of stepping up to MotoGP would be so much harder. If he went straight to MotoGP, then he's there without any possible slippery stepping stones. I'm waffling. He should go to MototGP, but I'm not sure he would do well tbh. I thought Redding would do a l...

To be fair all racers have huge egos. I would love to see Rossi lift a 10th title but equally happy to see Lorenzo win it. Beauty of bike racing imo is best man wins and as long as it's good racing I'm happy with that. I have mates who love football but I would struggle to enjoy it as although they...

My Mrs needed step ladders to get on the back of mine. Once round the block was enough to put her off for life (thank fook)

Tbh Duke whilst I can agree the Pramac went well today and that all Honda's have struggled this season a factory rcv213 in a well funded and professional squad like Marc VDs is a better option than a Ducati GP14 and I m pretty sure Scott himself would agree to such. I'm not knocking the guy. I thin...

We bought some pit lane walk tickets for yesterday at Silverstone. Wasn't quite sure what to expect and it was very (too?) busy. But we were treated to Valentino coming out to meet his fans and also Honda rolled both of Marquez bikes out and let us have it double-barrelled from both. :D Turn up the...

Lucky bugger I'd love that.

I might go Kwacky if I sort my vibrating bars out first, I've got that week off.

Good shout on the bar ends. I damaged one when I last gobbed it, it's slightly bent, but I'm getting vibrating in both hands. A mate has suggested that it might be a bearing gone. I must admit it does squeal from time to time. Are bearings hard to get out?

The latter probably or old age (

Plus vibrating through the bars. Very uncomfortable while riding and having to keep shaking my hands to rid the pins and needles.

Would the problem be that my front wheel needs balancing?

Sorry but I chuckled at the steward falling over in the mud

Where abouts on the track is the practice start? Hanger straight?

Mine arrived today can't fookin wait

Interesting

Anyone had theirs delivered yet?

No wonder they have them little spoilers on the faring on the dukes. That is an amazing speed, how the fook do the brakes cope?

I love the BT presentation of MotoGP, they make it really interesting and I thought the BBC was good when they had it. Two minus points: the blonde bird, has she got permanent mumps and the music going into a commercial break is a bit gash. What is it the singer is screaming? 'I feel alive'? They ne...

I know of another cloning at a petrol station. Apparently they have a camera hidden in the suspended ceiling

I had an RD200 as a teenager and would wheelie it off the lights. I used to open it up, shut it off and open it up again. The chain would come off sometimes whilst the front was in the air :( it even wrapped round the back cog once and threw me off :D I do the odd power wheelie now, but nothing of a...
