    I'm thinking of a group ride in Spain mid-late May 2020 - do you want to join me?

    I took a ferry from Portsmouth to Santander. Cost depends on whether you want a cabin or are happy to kip in the bar area. I got a cabin in June last year that was around £400 food and drinks on ferry expensive (captive market...). Its a 24 hour crossing. Service stations in Spain are a little...

    New 2019 BMW S1000RR: Rumour, Gossip and Intrigue...

    This was advice from the dealer I was going through, I am very surprised this wouldn’t have been explained when you ordered... I even asked does anyone not order the cheap way and he said you would be surprised... They did get some things right [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The benifit is BMW squeezing all they can out of the engine to make up that x amount of seconds faster round track (can't remember what the original quote was).

    For sure if it was a 600 you would be sitting 9-12k rpm just to stay in the power band, but at around 6-8k rpm in first gear you are likely hitting 80 -100mph. To hit 9k on a road and get benefit from a shift cam on a litre bike you are doing well to hang on to your licence.

    To be fair I think this is the most honest review so far, its the first I have read that has tipped its hat to the customers that have been left in the balance pondering on when the investment they have made will arrive. There is no superbike in production that will impress on the road while...

    Do you want a bike in 2019 on a 19 plate that will do very little miles due to the winter weather or a bike on a 2020 plate? Personally If I had the luxury to wait I probably would have and delayed the order to 2020, one to get the registration for next year and two by then any Teething...
