Front End Chatter #197

Hello boys and girls, and welcome to Episode 197 of Front End Chatter, a motorcycling-themed podcast spoken out loud by Simon Hargreaves and Martin Fitz-Gibbons, very much the Ying and Yang, the Ego and the Id, the – if you will – Laurel and Hardy of motorcycle journalism. 

We are supported as ever by our compadres Bennetts, Britain's best bike insurer (which I think we've basically established as fact, now) and bikesocial.co.uk, the most amazingly comprehensive motorcycling website on the, er, web. And not forgetting, as if we could, bikeclub.bennetts.co.uk – the place to speak your motorcycling brains. 

And on this episode of FEC we have: 
• exhaustive details of Ducati's new Multistrada
• extensive details of Kawasaki's new Versys 1100
• executive details of the recall notice for Kawasaki's Ninja hybrid
• exemplary details of Triumph's new Speed Twin 1200
• economic details of KTM's woes 
• plus your questions, queries, thoughts and musings from the FECSack – please send your missives and misgivings to: 
[e-mail] and we'll get round to reading it out in six months' time. Probably. 

Thank you very much for watching and you can no longer reach us on Twitter because there is no more Twitter. But we're still on Instagram:
