Practical sportsbikes

Post by chirpy999 »

The november issue has a feature on 350 sports. Olly from NLM and Paul Compton are amongst the owners featured. Its a decent article and the magazine is worth picking up if you are passing a newsagents

I enjoyed that article too after reading a previous copy, which came as a two-fer with a Classic Bike. I think I'll get it again as it's good reading, the only things being that I don't really share their love of slab-sided '80s Japanese sportsbikes with 14k redlines, most of which - ironically - seemed far from practical :wink: at least in terms of engine access, comfort or workaday usability. I also found an article on seat recovering pretty vague when compared with a similar article in CB. But it was good, on the whole.
Now I think about it, I bet loads of people think Morinis are not practical. Now there's a thing!
Cheers,
