After having a question from a listener of the channel that I'd never had before, I decided to give it my best shot to answer.
Buying a motorcycle from the year you're born; is it sensible, is it a solid financial investment, and is there actually a bike that you want from that year.

With more and more frequent noise about plans for vehicles to be taxed on a per mile basis (regardless of whether electric, diesel or petrol), I discuss what this means for electric vehicles.
And is it still sensible to look at a bike such as the Ducati 916 as a solid investment, with the electrification of personalised transport?
.
And how Italian is Moto Guzzi? After hearing that many of the parts were manufactured in China, and just the assembly that takes place in Italy, I decide to take a closer look at the reality

I take a look at desirable workhorse of a motorcycle; the generation one Honda Hornet CB900. These bikes have often covered big distances, are not garage queens, but are starting to look like extremely good investments with their rugged build quality and reliability.
And I see what type of Harley Davidson Sportster 1200s are available for around £5,000.
And I check the specs of a bike I'm unspeakably excited about; the incoming Royal Enfield 650 Super Meteor!

I take a look at the 750cc Honda Africa Twin 750 (around the year 2000) to see if this could be a solid investment.
And I look into used Harley Davidson Softail Deluxes in the US, and find a very very tempting offer! I also compare prices in warm states (Florida), compared to cold states New York, Pennsylvania etc, to see if bargains can be found in the colder states.
And does it matter where your motorcycle's made- both from an ethical point of view and also for your own peace of mind?

I take a look at a few motorcycles that I think (or more relevantly- a couple of listeners think) will be future classics in the not too distant future.
All of these bikes are still affordable, but are juuust starting to increase in value.
If you have the space and money, buy these for your collection and look after them- they will be very desirable soon!

I try my best to answer the question of "Should I buy a 125cc bike and learn on that, or just buy a bigger bike when I pass my test?"
And I take a look at two sub £2.5k Japanese missiles!

After seeing how strict Spain are with any kind of motorcycle customisation, it got me thinking- is it just a matter of time before the UK follows suit?
And I find three superb investment motorcycles that I believe won't depreciate any more, and prices may even start to rise!

Thank you to Sizzapp for sponsoring this week's podcast episode. A vehicle tracker with no monthly costs and can be setup in minutes.
It's not cheap getting into motorbiking. Passing your test is expensive, motorbikes are often expensive, and riding gear is bib big money too! So I've found a £300 solution for anyone who's passed their test and only has £300 cash to buy a motorbike and full outfit.
I then take a look at pre 1980 motorbikes that are tax exempt and also ULEZ (low emissions zone in London) exempt too! Could there be some genuinely cool, useable 1980s bikes that are viable modes of transport?

I look into whether it's still sensible to spend big money on petrol powered motorbikes, with the looming ban on internal combustion engines coming.
And I go through the results of Yamaha owners' thoughts on their bikes.
I also share some insight from Ducati owners, as well as find the ultimate tourer for under £5,000!

I chat about my recent four days with the Harley Davidson Pan America, and I look at a budget alternative.
I'm amazed to find out how much Suzuki Bandits have gone up in value...
And I discuss pillion comfort!

I give my weekly motorcycle roundup, the expanding ULEZ (ultra low emissions zone in London), as well as my recent time spent on a Ducati Monster- my first ever ride on a Ducati!
And I look into whether I made the right choice eight years ago when I bought a Triumph Speed Triple over a Buell.
And I look into a 2018 parts bin special Suzuki that can be found now for around £4,000!

I look at the costs of a Royal enfield Meteor and the pure joy of cheap biking.
And a bike I saw today and was blown away by- the Suzuki Intruder. This is a bike that can stand up to Harley in the looks and presence departments!
And I get a superb insight from a policeman on motorcycle trackers, and superb value alternatives!

I recently did a survey with the hope of finding out if Ducatis are a good used purchase. I asked; Would you class your Ducati as reliable?, and "Would you buy another Ducati?".
I had over 500 responses, and the results were eye opening!
I look into the Benelli TNT- this seems to be a brilliant mode of transport; fun and rock bottom prices.
I then take a look at Ural motorcycles and share some interesting thoughts from a Russian biker o where the brand is heading. I also find some great value Ural on line!
And finally- I find my bike of the week. A Japanese workhorse for well under £1,000!
