Motorcycle Cleaner Muc Off Cleaner

I haven't blogged for a while as the weather has been awful in the UK and a lot of Motorbikes are still under the Winter cover.  I have to say that i am not surprised that the bikes haven't come out, although we did have a couple of days when the sun stayed out and the bikes were out in force.  But if like me you still ride in the wet (although not all the time) then you will need a good cleaner to keep your bike looking good.  The Muc Off range of products is what i use and the range is quite extensive.  You can view the full range on the Muc-off Website.  I have used the Muc Off Cleaner to keep my bike looking good.  They also offer a Quick Drying Chain Cleaner and Chain Lube which I have also used and i am very happy with it.  
They have the microfibre cloths and sponges polishes Disc brake cleaner Silicon Shine and much more all i have tried and would recommend.  I also use the premium Anti Fog visor spray and i have tried a few of these products but this one really does work.  
The cleaner comes in 1, 2, 5 or 25 litre bottles you need to give it a try.


Well lets hope the sun comes out soon and the rain disappears 
Stay safe 

Whats happened to the weather? Big Motorbike weekend!

Normally in April riders get their Motorbikes out and begin riding as the winter has gone and the warm weather has arrived.  Most Motorcyclists ride in the warm weather and at weekends were they will meet up with other riders and go for a blast on their bikes.  However this year the weather in the UK has been dreadful and although riders got there bikes out, taxed insured and serviced ready to go, the weather has stopped alot of riders going out.  Will it change for May?  According to the weather men apparently not.  The bad weather, rain mainly, will remain they say throughout May. So what does this mean?
Many motorcyclists are not venturing out on their bikes. Some of the places that are for motorcyclists have seen a big decline in numbers due to the bad weather.  All we can do is hope that the weathermen have got May wrong and the weather improves and we all can get out on the bikes.  Today (2nd May) the weather is not bad at all and i am hoping to see a few riders out tonight.

This week-end is also a full programme of racing, with the MotoGP, World SuperBikes (WSBK) and the third round of the British SuperBikes (BSB) at Oulton Park.  Anybody Going?
I am hoping to get to Oulton Park on Monday but will be watching the MotGP and WSBK on the Tele this week-end.  Casey Stoner will hope to grab his 2nd Victory this season but will be pushed all the way by Lorenzo on his Yamaha, while i will be hoping that Crutchlow finally gets a podium finish having a fantastic ride in the last round. Did anybody see that last race?
Its early in the season and everybody is still looking for the best settings and getting their bike into good shape for the season ahead.  My money is still on Casey Stoner to win the MotoGP this season but i hope that he is pushed not only by Lorenzo but Crutchlow too, it would be fantastic to see a Britsh rider at the top.

So lets hope the week-end is dry and sunny for a ride out and Cructhlow wins the MotoGP

Viper RSV131 Bluetooth Motorcycle Flip Front Helmet

Do you like to keep in touch with other riders while you are out on your Motorbike?  If so then why not try the Viper RSV131 Motorcycle Flip Front Helmet. This helmet has the latest Bluetooth technology and allows you to keep in touch with the pillion or other riders.  You can listen to music or have the sat-nav connected, you can even talk on the phone if the need arises.  There are some retro fit Bluetooth kits on the market but this helmet has the kit already integrated into the helmet so there is no messy wires to hide like there is when you try a retro fit Bluetooth kit and this helmet is less then £150.00 so a bargain too.  The helmet itself is ECE22.05 approved for all European roads and even carries the ACU gold for the track. It has an integrated drop down sun visor with an anti-scratch visor.  The helmet has a quick release ratchet buckle strap and has high density noise reducing lining.

A great looking helmet that keeps you in touch with your co riders.

First Round British Super Bikes (BSB)

The much awaited start to the new BSB season began at the week-end.  Unfortunately due to the terrible conditions of the track the racing was stopped and only one BSB race took place.  The weather was awful with the rain coming down for most of the day and the track had no grip.  This was made worse as riders were crashing and leaving oil and petrol on the track.  So the organisers really had no choice but to stop the racing in the afternoon after two starts to the 600 super stock race.   They tried to keep the racing on by sending out the BSB riders for an eight minute free practice, but all of them agreed that the surface was like ice and not safe to race.  This was a shame, but the right decision as many riders had already fallen due to the  surface.
However there was one race in the wet at Brands and that was won by John Kirkham on the Samsung Honda.  Tommy Hill the reigning champion crashed out due to the track conditions. The full result is below

Round 1 - Brands Hatch Indy, Race

	Rider	Team
1	J. Kirkham	Samsung Honda
2	A. Seeley	Tyco Suzuki
3	M. Rutter	MSS Bathams Kawasaki
4	I. Lowry	Padgetts Racing
5	G. Mason	Quattro Plant Kawasaki
6	T. Bridewell	Supersonic BMW
7	S. Byrne	Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki
8	J. Westmoreland	Team WFR
9	F. Foray	Quattro Plant Kawasaki
10	J. Brookes	Tyco Suzuki

So its all move to the next round this week-end at Thruxton.  Lets hope for better weather!

British Superbikes (BSB) Starts Easter Week-end

The long awaited start to this years BSB starts on Easter Monday.  All the riders have been busy testing the bikes and getting things ready for the start.  The first round will be at Brands Hatch in Kent on the short Indy circuit and reigning champion Tommy Hill is very upbeat and looking forward to defending his title.
Last years winner of race one was Shane (Shakey) Byrne with Tommy Hill 2nd, but Shakey has left the HM Plant Honda team and switched to the Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki for this season.  Will he make a winning start? The second race from last year was won by Tommy on his Swan Yamaha with Shakey having to settle for third behind  Ryuichi Kiyonar.
Whose your money on for the title this season?
I hope its as close as it was last year with just a wheel separating Hill and Hopkins for the title, Hopkins has left BSB and moved to World Superbikes (WSBK) and he will be missed, but BSB still has a great pedigree of riders and we are all excited and looking forward to a great season.
The countdown has begun...
