    I'm informed that Moto Union 24 was the inaugural event and the launch for a yearly show, so we can look forward to a bigger and better Moto Union 25. Great video by the way.

      @@DukeDyson Hi Duke. Truth is, I'm one of the organisers, so I'll definitely be there next year. We are moving the date and once that's confirmed I'll let you know. If you have any questions I'd be delighted to answer them where possible. We really enjoyed and value your video - it's a great way to get the Moto Union name out there. Next year will be more expansive so please join us as a guest next time.

    I know what you feel, for me it's the Jota, everytime. Some interesting 'framing' amongst that little lot. Amazing how much radical metal 'spag.' it takes to re-mount the big Ducati lumps, tends to make me think 'why bother?', their stock frames exhibit lots of KISS & seem to work quite well.
    Love the 'Sucati', had a T500 once & that thing's frame was the best road-going laxative ever! : )

      Gotta love a Jota for sure, just fabulous machines 🙂 There's no doubting the beauty of that Harris frame but you're right about a stock Ducati's simple elegance; there was a lovely example of a 750GT which in truth is the Ducati I'd have taken away if I could. Alternative frames certainly once had their place in the world as the Japanese found faster ways of entering a hedge but that was seldom an issue for the more flamboyant Italians so as you suggest, why bother? But I do love a "special" 🙂

      Still have a soft spot for a GS1000S, I had a red one back in the day, great to see the one at the end still in use, looking good after all these years. Thanks for the video Sir 👍

      A friend of mine had a 3 1/2 back in the early 80s, lovely thing. He traded it for an 850 Le Mans so he obviously wasn't concerned about Italy's perceived reliability 🙂
