Hi there,
Please can you assist a confused biker! I've owned a whole range of Sportsbikes and naked's with the exception of the RSV4. I purchased a S1000rr in March and sold it with 700 miles 2 weeks ago. I convinced myself that I wanted to move away from Sportsbikes. Wait for it.....purchased...
Hello.
I need to get the DB output checked on my 08 T. It has MTC exhausts. I've got a noise tester which says it is running at 98 DB @5500 revs. I've emailed MTC and the respondee reckons it'll put out between 90-100 DB. The gent who owned the bike before me reckons it'll be under. All good so...

Hello everyone - I'm new to this particular forum. I hope someone out there can help
I have a problem with the battery on my RSVR not charging
I have checked the output from the generator and I don't think that is at fault (20V dc at 3-4000rpm on each of the 3 wires)
It seems to me that the...
Looking to change my beloved V-2win Tuono. A V4 t was on the list but the second hands ones have been flying out of the dealerships quicker than i can ring them to leave a deposit!
So looking at other bikes to take over the mantle of my 'everyday bike'.
Saw a Kawasaki Versys 1000 at our...
I took a V4 APRC Tuono out for a test ride today, and here are my thoughts:
It's f*cking awesome! :thumbup
The indicator switch is ***** :thumbdown
The gearbox is sweet :thumbup
The clutch lever kind of 'grabbed' on downshifts :thumbdown
The quickshifter is brilliant...
Over the last week or so I have been out test riding all of the alternatives I can think of for the T, as there's a chance I will have a one-off opportunity to buy myself a new toy.
First off I tried a Jap multi naked, the CB1000r - I managed less than 5 minutes on that before being bored...
Been for test ride on the Tuono V4 today at the Rocket Centre Blackburn. It looks better in the flesh. it does all the things the road tests say it does. It is small, ok for me but bigger guys will feel it to be a tight squeeze with their knees pushing into the tank. It is very smooth and pulls...
Hi all, not posted for a while and thought I would share my DV camera test with you. Bought one of the MD80 DV camera's off ebay ready for my track day at Cadwell next Sunday. Was a bit sceptical to say the leats at only having to pay £13 for a video camera but, I have to say, i am quite...
Superb weather here today so me and Lucie went to The Victory open day at Arrow Mill, Alcester.
Nice roads ... 175 mile round trip, treated the wee lass to a MacD on the way because I am a high roller me.
But ... we took a Victory Hammer S our for a burl in a pod of 8 other Victorys ... and I...

Mille came second from last!!!
Beaten by GSXR750, CBR600, and GSXR1000.
Thing is, I don't think they're wrong either.
I'm convinced the Mille would do better if it was lighter, and...
