    The only bike I'd really like would be a Suzuki GSX1400 that hasn't been f****d about with. An FE would even be more desirable. Been looking for years and not found one yet.

    Think I'd either go for an FJR1300 which is a serious mile muncher or a CBF1000 MK2 version which is a little less weightier.

    Did this course last year at Devizes. Well worth it and they even gave out freebie ear plugs and a Bikesafe neck scarf. Great bunch of chaps.

    Hi jf
    The FJR is a great bike and I'm looking at a few myself at the moment. I googled the FJR and up came the FJR club which is based somewhere near Wootton Under Edge.

    I believe the bike you are looking at has the auto box which some say can throw up a few glitches now and again. I'd plump for the manual FJR.

    I've only ridden in a large group once, and that was enough for me. Too many overblown ego's strutting their stuff. A group of three is just about enough to cope with.
    And safer.

    Don't forget to inform your insurance company when you change cans, as it may be deemed as a performance mod and it's a good excuse not to pay out in the event of a claim. Give them a call first.

    My bike already has a quick shifter, but I don't use it all the time, especially in city traffic. Great for country roads, a nice cracking sound through the zorst when changing up.

    If you're over 50 forget it!! It's a bike for the youngsters who bodies are supple. You'll have all kinds of aches and pains (especially the wrists) and the hips.

    Prefer the BBC's effort last year. There's just something missing from BT's programme including any rider who can get even near to Marquez, so at present it's a bit processional. Probably the best to...

    A 96 Divvy is a bit long in the tooth, so you might get reliability issues. The little YBR is usually bombproof.

    Yeah, can confirm, £5200 and £400 extra for the ABS model. Seems a great buy compared with the MT 09. Think Yam will sell shedloads of MT 07's for that money.
