Hello Geeks and Nerds, and welcome to Front End Chatter, Britain's Bestular Biking Podcast with him, me, and me, him. Or is it the other way round? Stick to the script! 

Anyway, your erstwhile hosts @SimonHbikes and @Mufga are, as always, indebted and in balls-deep with Bennetts, Britain's Bestular Bike Insurers, as voted for by the residents of Mavis Enderby for the fifth year running – and the quietly awesome bikesocial.co.uk, populated with over 6000 pages of news, views and reviews.

On the pod this fortnight we have words on: 
• Ducati's new V4 Panigale and the absence of a singularly-sided swingarm
• possibly Ducati's final V2 sportsbike, the Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition (the clue's in the name)
• the ongoing KTM cam drama
• the very quickly and efficiently executed Suzuki V-Strom 800DE recall (that's how ya do it lads)
• Bennetts BikeSocial new Bike Club (don't call it a forum but it is, no shame in that, I use them all the time)
• Kawasaki's hydrogen-powered prototype, and why we shouldn't take it too seriously because a) it'll never be practical and b) it's probably a corporate vanity project anyway
• Yamaha's decision to put their new auto-transmission on an MT-09, and will it wheelie? 
• ...which we discover Harley's LiveWire Costa Del Sol is more than capable of...
• plus loads of your FECsack emails containing thoughts, musings, amusing, ponderances and preponderances – sent in to:
