He bought one in the end didn't he. Guess he had to sell due to his divorce, love any of his reviews he does. People have said that he is one hell of a rider by he doesn't think so!

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
He is an amazing riser and must be very naturally talented as only started bike riding in 2008 after a bad car crash.
Wish I could ride like he does.

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
This is the video he did after buying an 899...and then sold not many months afterwards after splitting from his wife.

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
He can naturally ride and is naturally funny so it's a win win!! He has been pretty brutally honest in some of his videos. Think that's what makes him a great Moto vlogger. He does reviews so anyone can understand it and doesn't sugar coat thing either!! Double bloody decker!!

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
He's entertaining which is what it should be all about. Some of these vloggers are so dull its painful to watch.

Now comes with £750 of free Ducati performance vouchers.
I think it may have been Andy who was waiting for this offer to come up.

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
Free Termis in winter seems to be the best offer. I need to start test riding some bikes...

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
I've only ever seen his MotoGP test ride clip before, but I have heard you lot mention him a few times. Definitely an entertraining review.. I love his comment as he passes the wedding

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
Couldn't agree more duke. Some of the American ones are bloody terrible, straight roads, boring voice and crap discussions! Although must admit the Baron doesn't hang around on any road, even when past speed cameras he doesn't flinch !duke63 wrote:He's entertaining which is what it should be all about.

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
Definitely do Kiwi, although he doesn't do many videos nowadays as the Baron. he is more into his 44teeth, which I think he's gone for the more professional approach for. Although he managed to wing a a go kart track to race 2 125s around think that is marvellous!kiwikrasher wrote:

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
I like his banter and funny comments the best. The riding is good but his craic is better and as Duke says its all about the fun.

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
Whilst I was up at JHS racing getting the tyres swapped over I got off Blade, I noticed BVG's blade track bike was in there waiting to have some work done to it I presume. Very tricked up it is too. I think he spends a lot of time with Alastair Fagan (44 teeth) who also spends a lot of time up there doing his fast bike mag stuff.
Apparently they had been racing JHS's supertwins at the castle combe race meet the other weekend, looking at james ( the owner) face when I asked how they got on they didn't win

Re: Ducati 899 Video Review
Now that is very nice.
Are the wheels aftermarket or oem ones painted gold ?
I'm not sure if I prefer the 899 swingarm over the 1299 single side swing arm.
