Hello everybody and welcome to Front End Chatter – Britain’s best biking podcast, powered (and empowered) by the wondrous two-wheeled website known as Bike Social (that’s www.bikesocial.co.uk – and you should definitely check them out).
It’s episode 61, which as everybody knows is the **must remember to search Google for an obscure name of somebody who once raced a motorcycle with number 61 here** episode. Which, ironically, has very little racing at all, being mostly composed of:
- Chatter about the front end of BMW’s R1200GS, and how the previous service campaign – not a recall – to fix the fork stanchions is, erm, ahem, cough, now a recall.
- Martin rides to a village in the German Alps to drink beer in the company of 40,000 bikes, while Simon rides to a café near Whitchurch for the world’s largest all-female bikers meeting.
- Aprilia’s Shiver 900, and why are “middleweight”s getting so big now?
- Plus roughly one trillion and seventy-two of your finest emails, covering everything from Yamaha Tracer adverts, insurance groups, the best bikes ever to grace the silver screen, Simon gets his helmet out to demonstrate something to Martin, is the new Fireblade changing its tune or is that just the rider, and lots and lots and lots more.
