I know some you guys have dynoed with the hooked airbox and was wondering how much of a difference did it make. I looked at making my own airbox with a MWR filter and custom seal to the bottom of the gas tank but just wanted a little more feedback on the open filter setup as opposed to just a...

Hello all, Currently riding a VTR firestorm and just want that little bit more.... :angry One question tho, I do regularly take a pillion for reasonable distances... UK to Croatia and back this summer for example (this is unfortunately rare but you get the idea). What is the Mille like with a...

...Just a plain one or two colour respray, to tidy the bike up. But I don't know where to take it, or where to get the right decals from. I'm in Surrey, and I just want a decent spray job done at a reasonable price. Any ideas? The one thing putting me off is getting hold of the right decals, I...

Guys I need your help (as usual), There was a bad accident outsise our camp the other night where a rider was sadly killed. Initial reports look like he came out of a 60 into a 30 without slowing down where he met a sharp left and lost control hitting a telegraph pole. No other vehicles were...

Guys, I cannot believe I am saying this, but I am thinking of letting go of my first ever superbike, my Mille-R, and change onto something that is a lot more reliable, especially as an all-weather bike. I will not stray away from a 1000cc superbike though, but I am a little short on knowledge...
