Front End Chatter #44

Welcome to Front End Chatter #44, in which Mufga and SiH talk about a couple of MotoGP races that happened ages ago – and including the tragic loss of Moto2's Luis Salom at Catalunya, the slightly unedifying fallout, the race itself with torpedoes and last lap thrills, and a very necessary handshake to cap it all off.

We also natter about TT racing – and in our excitement over the difference between letting a MotoGP bike race in the Superbike class but chucking out a rider for coated cam buckets in another, completely neglect to offer condolences to the family and friends of lost riders Dwight Beare, Ian Bell, Paul Shoesmith, Andrew Soar and Dean Martin. Which we do here.

Mufga and Si also discover the joys of Bluetooth headsets, muck about in Wales on BMW's GS Challenge, ride KTM's 1290 GT (for the next issue of Bike magazine) and chunter about BMW's R1200 GSA v KTM's Super Adventure v Triumph's new Explorer v Ducati's new Multistrada Enduro (check it out in a forthcoming issue of Ride magazine). No spoilers. Ok, maybe just a couple.

After all that, we run out of time to read out your emails so they'll be in the next episode of FEC, out sometime next week. Blimey.
