I will admit I get a modern bike mag (BIKE) I got it as part of a deal for some other classic mags and slowly I have grown to like it seeing what the modern bikes have to offer (reliability comfort and performance) and what they don't (light weight and low height). This month they did a feature on the new Gold Star (ugh!) but also 8 sample classic bikes (Anthony Godin stock) with a write up and what they are worth indicating that these are the ones the young blades might like to buy. There is a Comet with an interesting write up a price of £22995 and they say its a third the cost of a v twin and comment "lets face it many people wont know the difference"
The other interesting fact I gleaned is that the attendance at Silverstone was only 46,000 and the attendance at the Skerries road race in Ireland was 40,000 I think a lot of people are starting to think like me GP racing is too sanitised and real road racing is like it should be.
