Throttled Motorcycle Podcast

Its 2021!

After talking about our holidays and rides, we got into things we got for our motorcycles over the Holidays, and what we wanted to get.

We then talked about trips we are hoping to make on our motorcycles in 2021.

This lead to a discussion of practicing riding, Motojitsu exercises, and whether it is helpful to practice knee down riding.

Brian H. then joined us and shared his opinion on knee down practicing, and also his recent purchase of a BMW s1000xr, and taking it drag racing at Sonoma Raceway.

Also his extended Iron Butt riding on his BMW g310gs.  

Whether it could be done on an electric motorcycle.  

He'll be joining us in future shows…

Here's hoping for a great 2010!

In our greetings to each other we get into the topic of who would ride and in how low a temperature.   This leads to sharing of the rides last week that we did or didn't do.

Main topic is Holiday oriented and we discuss motorcycle gift ideas for the Holiday season, bouncing off some articles that list gifts…

Happy and Safe Holidays to you all!

This week Tom got to sit on the BMW R18 and will gives his thoughts. He also attended an Indian demo day and rode a FTR1200S, Challenger Dark Horse, Chieftain, and Scout

News: We have got to talk about the 2021 Ducati MultiStrata V4 – 37k mile service interval. The most beautiful scooter ever? Is the greatest beginner bike ever? The future?  Riding gear integrated with BMW's most advanced scooter ever?

Paddock: The end of factory Harley teams?

MotoGP: Somewhat surprisingly, Morbidelli on the petronas Yamaha takes pole. Miller on a pramac  ducati in 2nd, and Nakagami on the LCR Honda in 3rd.  Zarco on a esponsorama racing ducati in 4th,  Pol Espagaron on factory KTM in 5th, and Vinales on the factory yamaha in 6th.  Rossi,  dovitsioso,  Mir and Rins did not make the top 10

Race: Well, Morbidelli jumped out in front, took the lead and held it the entire race.  Miller made a really good effort to catch and almost pass him in the final lap, but ultimately failed to do it.  Mir, who started back in the field, made it to 7th.  He ran a conservative race, knowing that as long as he finished he would clinch the championship.   His teammate, Alex Rins, ran a good race and finished 4t, cementing Suzuki to win the manufacturers championship as well, a first for suzuki in MotoGP.  Pol Espagaro ran a solild race and finished 3rd on the factory KTM.  Quatrararo went down, vinales and rossi finished back in the pack, 10th and 12th. 

So, the championship has been decided, but the racing is still up for grabs, so stay with us for the finale next week in Portugal.
