Throttled Motorcycle Podcast

It's Kevin Tom and Larry tonight. We don’t know what to talk about, but we talk anyway.. Larry mentions his ride with Brian H up to Lake Berryessa in Napa,  and trying out Brian’s BMW 310GS.  Brian talks about the advantages of the quick shifter on his 1000XR, and we discuss this. Tom did some teaching and local rides. Kevin did a quick ride, reveling in his purchase of ethanol free gas. Tom’s plan to purchase a Lithium battery for his bike triggers a discussion of possible impending battery shortage b/o pandemic related slowdowns. Topic: The ever intriguing subject of tire wear patterns and what they reveal about your bike and the state of your suspension. Paddock: MotoGP Larry reviews the last two Qatar MotoGP races and the somewhat surprising results in what turned out to be two skillfully ridden races. Special Thanks: A big thank you to Donald, Kevin, Alex, Roger, Autumn, John, Rodney, Nick, Stinger, David, Paul, Steven, Lloyd, Mathew, Dan, TC, Jorge, Randy, Shaun, James, Tyler, Paul, Je
