Front End Chatter #215

Hello and welcome to Front End Chatter, and it's episode 215 of the long-running motorcycling podcast with him, Martin Fitz-Gibbons, and him, Simon Hargreaves – and immense thanks as always to the ever-supportive Bennetts, Britain's best-by-miles bike insurer, and the magnificent bikesocial.co.uk, the website with all your info on the latest new bikes, used bikes, classic bikes, news, reviews and product tests.

Right, on with the show – and, today, we're in for a reborn, reinvented, reimagined, reincarnated treat... because:

• Suzuki's GSX-R1000R is back, baby, for 2026 – and we have all the details, hot off the emails from Hamamatsu: power, weight, colours and tech. You can read about it elsewhere – but you can only hear about it, er, here

• KTM are back, baby – details of production starting again in Austria; the what, the when, and the how many

• BSA's Bantam is back, baby – yes, after only half a century, the owners of BSA, Mahindra, decide to resurrect the name for their new 334cc single roadster, as a direct rival to Honda's GB350S
• and of course the FECsack is back, baby – more musings, ponderings and queries from you lot to us lot about that lot

Thanks for listening, please email your own compositions and questions and congratulations to Mufga on his new job to:

anything@frontendchatter.com – and we'll do our best to read them out.

Thank ee again, and see you on the backside, baby!
