Thought I'd give you all a heads up on the current issue of Superbike Magazine.

It's got a whole section on crashing, and crash protection. With the current road conditions (and general time of year) I thought people might like to know. It seems pretty good.

If people wanna read the article, but don't wanna fork out, I could scan it in to the comp, but you'll have to wait til tommorrow evening (I can also scan the neck-tube, but unless that's your fetish, it's a little pointless).

Also, if you purchase it from Sainsbury's, it comes with a neck-tube from the Black range from Ghostbikes - mine's pretty good - bit snug, but then, I have got a big head (pulling it on is like watching a Hippo give birth...).

(I know I open myself to ridicule riding an old CG and buying a magazine about superbikes, but once I've done the gaskets - it'll still go no faster... Plus, a man can dream).

Superbike is for n00bs and BAB's now. It used to be the most mental of mental magazines, but it went a bit flat in the late 2000s and is now like Ride magazine, except with less BMW GS's and textiles.

Doubt its a particularly good article, certainly not worth your time scanning it.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Pretty much bought it for the neck-tube tbh.

Only really like Classic Bike and Classic Motorcycle Mechanics really.

RiDE changed their format, it's too colourful and blocky for my liking - too user friendly.

Bike is mildly better.

I liked Two Wheels Only - those were the days (when my Grandad worked at the factory which printed them and used to bring a copy home that is - never actually paid for it...)

Feel that all of the mags have calmed down these days. Confused
