A vehicle that gets lots of use especially travelling from A to B either for work or similar then an auto box makes so much more sense and ism so much easier to use.

I await the day when road bikes have a seamless box. But I suspect we will see the death of the ICE before then.

Went for the last evening thrash of the summer on the 853.

My body is starting to tell me that maybe I am not flexible enough to ride a sports bike on the road anymore.

Not ridden a bike with an auto gearbox yet but the DSG box in my car is so good I wouldn't want to drive anything else.

I suspect a similar level of engineering on a bike gearbox could persuade me the same way.

From my experience they are prone to a really bad whining noise which is impossible to fix.

When Alex was working at Silverstone Aleix Espargaro said in a press conference that if MM was on the Ducati, he would be faster than ever as the bike suits his style. I have no doubt Ducati are fully aware of this and will do everything they can to recruit him in two years time. A perfect match I s...

So had a call from the neurosurgeon late last night. She had me get a second MRI on my neck last week as she wasn’t happy with the quality of the first set and she wanted better imagery for surgery. On review of this second MRI (and conferring with another neurosurgeon and a neuro-radiologist) she ...

Witness - one of Harrison Ford's best films in my opinion.

Community spirit. My daughter has a school friend that lives a few doors down and her step mum is a JP. I was down there the other day getting documents verified for my income protection claim. I know them pretty well so when she asked why I was doing a claim, I was pretty open as to why. Well toda...

Washing machines can generally be repaired with a little knowledge. There are so many 'How to' videos on YouTube now that its a piece of piss to diagnose a fault and decide whether its economic to fix it.

A washing machine is generally any of a split hose, motor brushes or the belt.

The resurfacing company apparently threatened legal action against Mat Oxley for his comments in an article on Motorsport magazine on 28 August 2018, we published an article entitled "MotoGP Mutterings: 2018 British Grand Prix" on this website. This article contained inaccurate statements ...

All built down to a price.

IIRC a washing machine or fridge ... now costs similar to what it did when i got married.

A warranty isn't void if not dealer serviced Duke that's a common mis understanding to be fair. It has to be serviced in line with manufacturers specifications and schedules, with oem parts but the work can be carried out by anyone competent to do so. I've made warranty claims with Kawasaki when th...

I suspect the biggest issue for Silverstone at the moment is managing to get any insurance cover for next year at any cost

Pah, titanium con rods?

My bike has them and it's 20 years old next year.
