If you’re into motorcycle racing, you’ve probably heard of Liqui Moly. It’s Europe’s leading motor oil manufacturer, a global lubrication powerhouse, an official partner of Moto2 and Moto3 – and its motorcycle products are now finally available to buy in the UK.
Founded in Germany in 1957, where its products are still developed and manufactured, Liqui Moly is a globally renowned manufacturer of premium quality lubricants, motor oils, additives, vehicle care products, chemical repair tools, service products, glues and sealants. Liqui Moly claims that its products are perfect for use at home, in professional workshops, or for industrial use – and Liqui Moly is confident that its products lengthen the service life of motors and aggregates, ensuring excellent performance and functionality for years to come.
In 2015, Liqui Moly joined forces with the FIM MotoGP World Championship, as the exclusive lubricant supplier to Moto2 and Moto3 (an agreement which runs right through to 2020). This season, as in previous years, all teams will use the same ‘Made in Germany’ motor oil, a commercially available Motorbike 4T Synth 5W-40 Street Race. The fact the oil is suitable for both top level racing and general consumer use is a testament to the quality of product that Liqui Moly turns out.
Liqui Moly is also involved with the Intact GP team, whose riders Sandro Cortese and Marcel Schrötter race in Moto2 under the Liqui Moly banner, while making use of the extensive range of products available to them. And in North America Liqui Moly sponsors both the National MotoAmerica Racing Series and the Canadian Superbike Championship Series.

Ducati Riding Experience
When I rode the Ducati DesertX to France last year, I did have a bit of an explore on some easy fire roads and gentle green lanes in the wilds of the Médoc area, but was left with the feeling that, had I the experience, the DesertX would have been capable of taking me along some more extreme trails to some even more exciting places.

First Time Lucky?
It's ironic that the first all-new MV Agusta model to hit the marketplace right after Italy's No.1 trophy brand was acquired by Austrian giant Pierer Mobility, owner of off-road titans KTM, should be the company's first dual-purpose model of the modern era, powered by MV's all-new 931cc three-cylinder engine that's destined to form the basis of a whole series of new models in coming months and years.
