Never seen the BMF show this empty, we camp there every year and always have a great time but this year you could have driven a bus round the campsite and not come near hitting a tent. The show was also small, about the size of the bigest 'tail end show', if this is the main money maker for the BMF then they have had it but then maybe this is what hapens when you piss your members off.

Ten years ago I passed my theory, CBT and test to ride a 125. This I have done with MOT, service and insurance each and every year for decade. Last month I decided to upgrade my bike [bigger engine]. Long story short, I only have a provisional, not a full licence. Why? Because in the 2 years grace you where given to apply for your full licence, in my case 2003 - 2005, I didn't, I simply missed it.My error [it seems] Now the DVLA are saying I need to start all over again. Can't even ride my bike i've had ...

But now a new patent filed by Honda might give us a clue to the all-important %X91face%X92 of the bike. The patent shows LED (light emitting diode) headlights inside the bike%X92s twin air-intakes. At the moment, LED lights...

Hi,Can anyone recommend an insurance company that'll take 20+ years of riding into consideration for a car quote?Had full bike licence for over 20 yrs, this included cat B1 (trikes, small cars etc) passed my driving test just over a year ago, (I didn't have to do theory as I was "upgrading within categories"). So potentially I've been driving small cars (upto 550kg) for 20+ years, as well as riding bikes for over 20 years. Do any car insurance companies take this into consideration? As at present I'm been classed as a new driver and am expected to pay ...

I dont know too much about engine performance. I'm looking to buy a 600(ish) bike to last me two years, but heard that restrictor kit's can cause certain engines to perform badly, even degrade.
