I think this review is hilarious hyperbole. For example:

A word of warning, though. If you use only the front brake, you will fly over the steering wheel and be killed. If you try to use the back one, you will use the wrong foot and change into third gear instead of stopping. So you’ll hit the obstacle you were trying to avoid, and you’ll be killed.

Then there is the steering. The steering wheel comes in the shape of what can only be described as handlebars, but if you turn them — even slightly — while riding along, you will fall off and be killed. What you have to do is lean into the corner, fix your gaze on the course you wish to follow, and then you will fall off and be killed.

Clarkson's writing is now to predictable.

He would write" The reason I hate cheese...Is that it tastes of cheese"


Dull and boring TBH
 
Clarkson has been the same for years his approach is obvious and consistent but he does make me smile none the less. I do get worried by how many people take his views as gospel however which is sad.
 
Great right up, just the sort of thing I like reading from Clarkson, funny light reading.

I do like the comment by the guy who has died 6 times :D
 
Hes ridden one before, around the Monaco circuit, albeit when it was normal roads. Some sort of Ducati IIRC on his old Motorworld (summit like that) program.
