Cool, damage the front wheel but cut the back wheel in two. I can't help but wait for the video of him hitting another kerb with the front wheel and smashing it again.

When he's riding around the park at the end he's changed the fragile plastic wheel for one with proper spokes.

S'alot of fannying around though, innit?

Just buy a new wheel and stop inventing solutions to problems that don't exist.

Daft engineering for the sake of it innit, what's not to like!

I was hoping he'd pull a wheelie at the end though, that would be amusing to see

I wanna see him pump up the tyre.

This is cool with little Dani. Worth watching till the end

Shakey having a wee look round the only road legal 250 2 stroke in production

MTBs over jumps? Meh. Try it with no seat and one wheel.

Crash tests, never get bored with 'em and these are quite crashy.

Oops!

Most of this is a bit dull but there's a bit at the end - starts at the 15 min mark - featuring the current two-seater Ducati MotoGP experience bike which was quite interesting - 140kg two seater!

This should really be in a music thread somewhere but I don't know if we've got a "what you drinking, listening to" one so,

I've started listening to some of my Mum's old albums to find something to play at her crem and I remembered she loved this song and I thought some of you lot may too. We went to see Ralph McTell a few times together. She was very arty and copied this album cover in pastels. I asked my brother what he thought and he said he'd been playing this himself on his guitar lately.

I think nearly all engine parts are visible anyway?

That's not gonna polish out fella
