Re: Wife Swap - tankslap style

Oh and one thing on the Mutli that was epic this weekend were the Metzeler Z8s. Dry weather they are like a sports bike tyre with assured handling and a nice quick turn in. In the wet, and man did we have some wet weather on the way home, they were brilliant. No slips, slides or issues at all. Just ...

Re: Wife Swap - tankslap style

Best add my views: Started with the Versys. Similar riding position to the Multi though the bars are not as wide. The engine is a little gem. Revs freely and with hardly any vibration.

Ducati trackdays will be announced in the new year.

Donington and Silverstone usually, i guess for the noise reasons. Donington is usually on the Tuesday after WSBK weekend at the end of May.

Re: Isle of Man - 8th to 10th September

Awesome trip as always. Blessed with good weather yesterday and Friday afternoon so saw plenty and rode plenty. Bike swap was great too. Thanks guys. Shame we had to change ferry this morning but I actually thought the Heysham ferry was a better experience and not a huge amount further in distance. ...

Oh and i may fuel up in Liverpool too, 'tis a tad more pricey on the island.
Just meet at the ferry entrance, mate. You can get a coffee in the building next door.

Re: The sound of the new Ducati V4 superbike?

If I'm honest then I would agree it's way to much for a road bike. Even my Multi could get me in serious trouble with the ease that the motor spins up.

Still should be able to wangle a test ride next year just to see what it's like.
