steams up? 'Course it does. Sun gets in your eyes?
Yep. Need something to help but don't want
to have to open the visor when it gets dark?
You need one of these...

light road-legal off-road motorcycle.
BMW
R1200R BMW do it again with a cool,
distinctly retro but undeniably different
update o the successful 1150 roadster. More
power, less weight and interesting looks...
We
all need reminding about
the hazards that face us every now and
again. So take a look at this - possibly
the best, most watchable road safety video
we've ever seen. No nasty shocks either...

MotoGP & SBK news from 2007, updated
every race.
MotoGP
Qatar 2007 The opening round
and a new visitor to the top step of the podium, bringing a whole new set of challenges to the rest of the pack, especially one V Rossi esq, who wants his title back...
MotoGP
Spain 2007 Jerez is a perennial favourite with Rossi in particular, as well as being a brilliant place to go. A spectacularly close fought race that went right down to the wire...
MotoGP
Turkey 2007 If ever a sigle race could show the importance of tyres, this was it. A total reversal of fortunes saw the Michelin shod teams struggle against their Bridgestone rivals...
MotoGP
China 2007 First corner dramas and some inspired riding in a typically entertaining race. Close racing and hard overtakes but no change at the top...
MotoGP Le
Mans 2007 A wet, wet race which again demonstrated two things. Just how good the Bridgestone wets are and just how talented one particular rider is in the rain. A welcome return to the top step for Suzuki...
MotoGP
Mugello 2007 Mixed weather meant tricky conditions at a circuit where Rossi has won the last five races. A masterclass by the Italian and by a surprise Brazilian closed the gap at the top again...
MotoGP
Catalunya 2007 Hard racing from the locals and some spectacularly mature riding by the youngsters opened that gap at the top back up again in an exciting, eventful race.
MotoGP
Donington Park 2007 Wet and miserable, this roud was one of attrition as, by the end, anyone still upright and circulating was going to score points. Some amazing riding from a total newcomer and some pretty solid performnaces from the old hands, as well as some rather shoddy stuff as well...
MotoGP
Assen 2007 Wet practice but a dry race made for some interesting tyre choices. Michelin finally seem to have caught up with Bridgestone now, and that gap at the top, though still significant, has started to close again.
MotoGP
Sachsenring 2007 Honda finally manged to break their longest ever non-winning streak with a textbook performance from Dani Pedrosa while Valentino Rossi sportingly crashed to give Stoer the points. Or something.
MotoGP
Brno 2007 Stoner again, this time in even more emphatic style. He's got a sixty point lead, do you think he'll ease off at all now? Nope, me neither...
SBK
Qatar 2007 The first race of
the season and the first time a newcomer has won straight out of the box. Some great racing saw two riders sharing the spoils and made us all realise why this championship is so good...
SBK
Phillip Island 2007 Another pair of cracking good races, with the spoils again being shared between two riders. One of whome was now firm championship leader...
SBK
Donington 2007 The return home for SBK, as this is where it all started twenty years ago. We had it all - drama, huge crashes, massive sense of humour failures and yet again wins shared between two riders.
SBK
Valencia 2007 A win for a local hero and another for the championship leader was the outcome of one of the most exciting races of the year. Real edge of the seat stuff and more overtakes than an entire season of F1...
SBK
Assen 2007 After last year's washout, this year was cripplingly hot. A pair of winners again, though one rider lost out on the double by just nine thousandths of a second. A truly inspirational second race followed a pretty exciting first one in the meeting of the year...
SBK
Monza 2007 Not the best racig we've seen, and not the best result for the championship leader either. But for the first time this season a rider managed to do the double, which has made things interesting at the top of the table...
SBK
Silverstone 2007 Wet as a very wet thing. So wet, in fact, that the second race was cancelled as the track was declared too wet for safety. The first race was agai one of attrition as riders were dropping like flies. But one particularly heroic ride stood out above the others...
SBK
Misano 2007 Hot and dry as always, the Misano race was run the other way round from usual this year for safety. A double win from one rider and tyre woes for the championship leader saw the gap at the top of the table shrink down a bit...
SBK
Brno 2007 A pair of podium finishes by championship leader Toseland, allied to some spectacularly inept riding by other members of the pack meant that the young Englishman did his chances no harm at all...
