Bike quite liked the Blade and the Gixxer thou K8 wasn't too far behind. They preferred last year's K6 though.

Hardly mentioned the 1098.

I decided that as I'm going to be riding with San at the weekend that I would even things up a little to give him more chance to keep up.

So the R1 has been replaced today with this -































































Should I give him a head start too?

Just heard a rumour that Ducati have withdrawn their advertising with Bike mag

Evidently , the mag havent even published the true findings and feelings either.

Looking forward to seeing my mate to see what was really said and omitted from the article
ooooo, did they dare say a Ducatti was like a bag of nails with the reliability of a babies nappy?

some truth at last...







...looks nice from the outside (to some), but the contents are a pile of shit.

This what happens when a group of riders are allowed out for a spirited ride with people you dont know.

Seems it was one of 2 incidents.

Luckily , I wasnt able to make it .

why are you " pulling " them , does the R1 not have enough power ?
