Welcome to Front End Chatter 53b – made possible by www.bikesocial.co.uk; go check them out! – and it’s a special FEC dedicated to answering, or failing to answer, your emails. Topics up for Front End Chattery include:
what’s happened to the UK sportsbike market?
do ex-police bikes make good winter hacks?
why a BMW K1200LT is the best-value used bike out there
the best set of one-piece leathers for under £600...
... and what should be worn under them?
more headphone chat (that’s quite enough of that – Ed)
what’s better: being faster or being safer?
why MotoGP frames are hand-made and production bike frames aren’t
is a Honda Varadero more comfy than a Pan European, and are they more comfy than a VFR800? And where does a CBF1000 fit in all this? (and what about a BMW K1200LT?)
why there’s a TAT, might one day be a TET, but probably not a TIT or a TWAT
more Honda heated grips gripes – and turns out it’s not just the Africa Twin that suffers
more top five favourite bikes, and a few least favourite bikes... including Honda’s 929 Blade and Kawasaki’s 2007 Z750
how to decode new bike launches, why they’re honest, and why context matters
