LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

FREEDOM

And just like that, we are halfway through the summer. That means that we are halfway through the year. Time flies.

If you’ve been paying attention, our motoindustry is having a pretty good year thus far. Just about all sectors on the business side of things are reporting positive growth. Bikes are being released and new models are being announced for the coming year. As they say, business is good. Not great. But pretty good.

Pandemic or not, it is always a good time to be a biker. As the world slowly opens up, (who knows for how long) the lifestyle or being a rider never really slows down. There is always something to do or somewhere to go. That’s a freedom that you can not buy.

What I’m saying is that even though there is still a massive amount of bullshit in the world, motorcycles provide a therapeutic release from the pressures and stress that we have to deal with daily. So the next time gravity tries to get a hold on you, remember… it’s only one down. Then it’s five up from there. Unless you’re running GP shift.

Best, Allan @mrblackmoses

USING A RACETRACK AS A LIVING LABORATORY

As a recognised long-standing major motorsport player, Motul benefits from the world’s best laboratory in the most extreme racing conditions.

At the Isle of Man TT, you must fully trust your machine around bumpy and winding public roads at 330km/h. Honda has chosen Motul to lubricate their racing engines: a reward for our ingenuity and performances.

Recognised by many teams worldwide as the best racing engine oil, the 300V has inspired a wide range of engine motor oil tailored to meet the most demanding constraints of daily rides. Find the one you need on www.motul.com
