I did FAST 1 & 2 almost... 20 years ago (cough!!!) If you have a racing license I feel like even Phase 2 might not be that educational for you. It was very educational for me, but it was my first time on any track I suppose there is another element to this - how reliable is your track bike? If...

Who is your photographer? I think those are some of the most flattering shots of the Pan America I've ever seen

Counterpoint - 30 years ago Triumphs aged like milk. I, personally, had a T595 that spun a bearing

Aside from EK's screw links, and like... X-rings, has there been any innovation in drive chains in the last 20 years?

For comparison, Scrambler 400 X is roughly identical equipment-wise and it has an MSRP of $7320 Bullet 350 MSRP is $6799 so potentially they are not that far apart

I just want to point out that the idea behind the political forum was not to encourage political debate, but to quarantine it. I think inreb left over political conflict that predated the existence of the subforum. It was technically an experiment, it got a fair shake, and it existed for a...

I thought a joke was being set up but now I'm wondering if people remember the VFR1200X was real
