Chaps.....something to peak your interest!
I took part in a Market research event a few years ago for a 'mystery' manufacturer.....
I have been invited to another event happening on the 29th/30th & 31st of this month in Farnborough. I am already booked in to attend......it's all very cloak and dagger, but you are asked to give your opinion 'as a Biker' on what is accepted to be a new model or models of bike prior to release to the general public.....your not allowed to bring any photographic equipment or mobiles into the event with you!! Its all hush hush
Where this event differs from most is that you won't just be looking at pictures this time...there is actual bikes on display to evaluate and also the opportunity to ride some too...... They will also pay you £50 for your time too which is approx 2 1/2 hours.
These guys are still short of candidates and asked me this evening if I knew any bikers......so I agreed to post here .... I'll also post on a few other website forums....as they need 80 more people.
Anyone who is free on any of those days and would like a 'paid' sneak peek at some new metal should pop me a PM and I can send you som contact details. Last thing to say is simply, they will ask you lots of questions and to fill in a few forms... But my interest has been piqued and I now want to see what they have on show
It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

Is it the new Kawasaki 1400 GTR? I'm sure I could arrange a meeting for that day in London if it is!

Wish I knew!......... Sadly they try to conceal all that kinda thing...even whilst you're there....although as bikes will be there in the flesh I hope to learn a thing or 2 .....
