Front End Chatter #103
Released: Oct 3, 2019
Hello and welcome to Front End Chatter episode 103, suspended like a great chattering hammock from the stout tree trunks at bikesocial.co.uk and Bennetts, the bike insurance specialists.
And what a rambling podcast we have this week, only tangentially about motorbikes but also talking in topics such as:
MotoGP from Aragon, with how the winning bike was second slowest, how Bradley Smith beat a factory Honda and what happens to all the “New World Champion” T-shirts that are made for riders who don’t end up winning them Jonathan Rea’s fifth WSB title proves a knife can win in a gunfight if the guy with the gun shoots himself in the foot – or unless he’s actually shot in the foot by a CEO with a Photoshopped head, then takes the money and runs onto a Fireblade news of Honda’s 2020 Africa Twin, including how it’s different from last year’s bike up to and down to lower seat height, more power, fancier gadgets and electric springs – and how much it’ll all cost plus gossip about the 2020 Triumph Street Triple, Kawasaki’s supercharged naked, BMW’s new S1000XR, F850GT and 850R, remote-controlled KTMs whether Ewan and Charlie’s ride across South America on Harley-Davidson Livewires is the most fascinating thing ever or a total irrelevance and, really, who cares? Answers on the back of a TV script please plus loads more nonsense about
how to do 200mph on the cheap
more motorcycling Room 101 topics (and a few disagreements!)
what can replace a KTM 990 SuperDuke?
what’s the best litre sportsbike replacement for a 2010 S1000RR?
how to chainsaw braches on a fallen tree and why a Husqvarna won’t run on mineral two-stroke...
...and much, much more of the same.
Thank you for listening, thank you for joining in with the conversation by emailing your thoughts, questions, considerations and jokes to anything@frontendchatter.com

That is both amazing and great.
