    Test ride

    Yesterday I had a test ride on a 2017 RR and R. Almost the perfect day for riding. The RR had not had the first service so was still limited. Even with that it got to high speeds very quickly. Probably worryingly so in terms of licence. Quick shifter was great, as were brakes. It felt...

    What's the song?

    There was a song in the 80's or 90's that started with a woman and a man, both Liverpudlians, talking, I think about the possibility of being sacked. ring any bells with anyone? I thought it was a Frankie song but there are so many mixes I've not found it on YouTube thanks!

    When I rule the world...

    Following on from another thread where FreudianSlip said that things would change when he rules the world, what would you change? I'd ban aubergines (nice colour, nice shape, horrible texture). I'm generally pretty tolerant.

    Was just on the US forum and it seems that the dealers there are trying to get rid of 2016 models with one guy getting a new bike, forged wheels for $15400!

    Gps

    It seems that GPS is too short to search for - anyone got any tips how I can search the forums for it? I currently have (not on S1000rr) a Garmin Zumo 590LM which is mounted on a Telferizer ball which screws into the stem. Works well. The S1000RR has a more compact dashboard area so ideally...

    ABS and stoppies

    Hi, Looking at this vid at about 3:50 he does a stoppie immediately after he's discussed ABS. I'd always thought that ABS would prevent a stoppie but I guess there's a very narrow line? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1trpTaTkp0U I'm not interested in performing a stoppie so it's purely out...

    California Superbike School training

    Not sure if this is an appropriate place to post this - mods feel free to move. I was looking at the California Superbike School as it seems to have a good reputation. Looking at the Staff link a lot of the instructors seem to be rather arrogant in their attitude to people trying to learn...
