Staff blog: Is the Judge worthy of a nod?

Liam Marsden, 22 April 2013 13:28

Riding back from MCN Live at Butlins Skegness at the weekend was the first weekend with good weather and plenty of bikes on the fantastic roads of the Lincolnshire Wolds. On previous long term bikes I've never given two thoughts to the nods I've received from fellow bikers. But I'm not sure if less people are nodding at me on ...

Staff bikes: Suzuki GSR750 - GSR takes on the Nurburgring

Liam Marsden, 27 October 2011 14:55

Rising at 5:30am on a day off isn’t exactly what I’d call relaxing, but with the GSR already loaded up and sat waiting patiently in the garage and the Nurburgring as the finishing point for the day I was up surprisingly quick. Meeting my Dad’s mate Dave at Peterborough services we then met my Dad somewhere on the M20 before ...

Staff bikes: Suzuki GSR750 - Tail tidy improves GSR's rear

Liam Marsden, 25 August 2011 15:56

After riding the GSR for the first few miles there was only one modification that I could see needed to be made, to fit a tail tidy and get rid of the huge piece of plastic hanging off the rear end of the bike. (Although it does come in handy as a tea holder.) I went for a tail tidy ...

Staff bikes: Suzuki GSR750 - GSR shines at wet Brands Hatch

Liam Marsden, 11 August 2011 14:30

I’ve now been on two track days and on both there’s been rain. Despite the fact like most motorcyclists I don’t like rain (I don’t mind getting wet, it’s more the inconsistent grip levels) I decided the rain wasn’t going to ruin the latest one at Brands Hatch Indy – one of the Reclaim Our Tracks days run by Bike ...

Aprilia RS4 125: Teen dream goes four-stroke

Liam Marsden, 10 June 2011 15:00

Walking up to the Aprilia RS4 125 you’d be forgiven for mistaking it for its bigger brother – the 1000cc V4 RSV4R. The styling is exactly like the World Superbike championship winning machine, only when you stop for a closer look do you notice it is in fact, a 125. Sitting on the bike you’d still struggle to guess it ...

The all-new four-stroke Aprilia RS4 125 is being launched at the Vairano test track in Italy, and MCN web producer Liam Marsden is at the launch of the new bike. After a session on the RS4, here are his thoughts. "From a distance, the RS4 looks almost exactly like the RSV4 superbike, which its styling is based on, it's not ...

Staff bikes: Kawasaki Versys – The return of the Versys

Liam Marsden, 28 May 2010 11:15

If a man by the name of Sam Pinney ever asks to borrow your bike, say no. Bad things happen. Everything was going well until I was informed some scamp in London had tried to steal the Versys. Here are Sam's thoughts on the Versys and his account of the attempted theft: "I like riding in London. It’s exciting, stimulating and ...
