The 5th gear ones are great though, and not just because the bike often wins...

They also did 1098 vs Lambo (Murchialago?)

Also did CBR with Toseland vs a Civic Type R... Erm a Gixxer 1000 vs something else too but cant remember what. The bikes all won those.

Forgot about those. Leon Haslam was on the 1098 at Castle Coombe.

I dont know why everyone is complaining.

Last night on Top Gear they had a KTM on it now I know a lot of people will say it's not a real bike but it was on screen for at least 3 seconds.!!!

sorry if its been mentioned but if you have ever watched clarksons motorworld, he did ride a 748 (or similar) around monte carlo race track. not sticking up for him, as said he's a wind up merchant and i think its quite funny. i bet there has been a few times hammond has taken the bike to work an razzed carkson while hes in some super car.

Didn't Nial MacKenzie race a porsche round the track and the porsche won or was that one of Clarkson's dvds?

Aye... But he says he was knobbled, made to do the lap on cold tyres. True or not? Don't know.

If anyone i work with tries to give biking a slagging i put them right with all the vigor i can muster. I believe that Clarkson doesnt like bikes because it takes large amount of skill to ride and control a bike correctly and safely and he hasnt got it. His idea of driving skill is sitting in a 1000 BHP supercar and spinning the rear wheels(YAWN) then when real driving skill is needed he has to hand it to someone who can drive. The Stig.

its amusingm, but does go over the top somewhat. wha ti disagree with is (correct me if i am wrong) but clarkson has been using the phrase "tankslaper" alot recently, which i associate with bikes! Using biking terms but then slagging it off?!! bah!
still a good show though. and i think the reason hammond and may dont react much recently is because of the dispute in pay. apparently clarkson gets paid just under 2 million a year from the bbc, the others get around 350,000. read it in the mail the other week. weather its correct or not im not sure, but i would certainly be annoyed if he was getting paid that amount!
