There has been a growing debate in Europe, in the article the UK, about the role of motorcycles in the future of transportation. Elements within the EU at headquarters in Brussels have been calling for an outright ban on motorcycles, while in the UK elimination of motorcycles over 650cc has been suggested.
The MCIA has a role of motorcycle advocacy in the UK. This is its current response to the, at times, mixed signals given by Prime Minister BrownÔÇÖs government.

Wondering:
Visordown.com was out with more road tests of used bikes. The link will take you the index of their used reviews. Take a look at what ever interests you. Try to get a feel for what they are doing and ask yourself what is good about them and what you would do better or differently if you were writing the review.
If I were to review my bike I would have to tell a bit of history to put it into perspective and then go into the day to day living with an R115R.
As much fun as that could be to write I would really like to move to the other side of the page and become the reader.
Just wondering.
