By Tim Skilton on 06/01/2010 13:05:53
We thought it was going to rain for the European launch of Honda's VFR1200. So I chose some kit for the job and here's how I got on.
Is it wet enough for you? It rained for pretty much the entire launch of Honda's new VFR1200F, which is a pity really because we never got to fully exploit what the new VFR has on offer. It was an ideal chance to test out some kit that claims
