Is the Michelin AC10 a good tyre?
(Preview)
I'm feeling much better since the lobotomy thank you but what with the horse tranquillisers and synaptic sequestration I would like to practice at being a proper forum contributor. Tyres like the AC 10 I had thought of as black and round then I thought, no perhaps they are circular or rhomboidal or som...

Kawasaki Ninja H2 - the selling price is £22,000. That's more insane than a drink fuelled ramble from some of the ordinarily soberly sensitive souls on this once esteemed forum.

Weight
(Preview)
Was looking at various bikes again and one thing I always consider is how much it weighs in on the scales. Weight can be good in some ways as it keeps the bike steady and less prone to weaving or scrabbling over the tarmac, however that said good suspension and tyres should take care of that. I say should bu...

So I re taxed the KLE500 yesterday and thought I would give it a short outing just to blow the cobwebs away. Got almost out of the village and throttle cable snaps. Oh well, managed to limp back home with the choke on fast idle and ordered both throttle cables and a clutch cable as well from Wemoto. Surpris...

I noticed out the other week and yesterday that bikers do take a variety of lines when approaching a bend. Now most experienced riders and advanced riders do tend to take quite a wide line so in the case of a left hander they move out to the line and then take an arch not necessary clipping the apex but a smoo...
