THIS MONTH I HAVE MOSTLY BEEN… “Finding extra power.”

​APRILIA RSV4 RF
After all the bother I went tolast month fitting the Power Commander V and Secondary Fuel Module, I thought I’d try and make the most of it by getting the thing fuelled properly. We decided to van it down to see the boys at JHS so we took along the standard exhaust and an Akrapovic secondary and end can that I’ve managed to get hold of. The idea was to have a little head to head power test with the Austin Racing exhaust that I’ve been using for the past few months.

It’s all well and good testing fancy exhaust pipes, but I’ve always thought that you can only blow stuff out as fast as you can suck it in so with that in mind I had a real good look at what trick air filters were on the market. I ordered myself one from DNA High Performance Filters and rammed it into the air box, in place of the standard one. Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy.

Sensational Suzuki Live - Blending decades of motorcycles, racing legends, track time and a beer tent with a cracking band, Suzuki Live's formula proved a winner for the thousands there.

Blending decades of motorcycles, racing legends, track time and a beer tent with a cracking band, Suzuki Live’s formula proved a winner for the thousands there. As motorcycling events go, Suzuki Live's 2024 effort is surely set to take some topping. Held over two days at the iconic Cadwell Park circuit, the event played host to a list of two-wheeled legends and a mixed bag of iconic Suzuki machinery spanning five decades.

It's a long time since I had that feeling... 1057 days, to be precise, and if you were to ask if 'that day' was the day it would happen again, then I would have bet all my worldly belongings against it.

YAMAHA WABASH RT

When you live a life of wheelies, burnouts and fast laps on race tracks, it's hard to spot a midlife crisis... but six months on in the saddle of Yamaha's Wabash e-bike, I daresay that's exactly where I'm at. I'll be honest, cycling isn't for everyone, and quite frankly, Lycra is even more polarising, but for me, life on two wheels, be it powered or pedalled, has formed my staple diet for as long as I can remember.
