Like day 2 roadkill in the summer, right?

The Marvellous Mrs Maisel.

Managed to be funny and heartfelt all the way through, with a well written conclusion. Anything that doesn't wrap up properly just sinks any enjoyment for me, but this show left me feeling satisfied.

Thanks, I found it now, I was looking under the wrong part of the app's settings :-/

Thank you, I was looking at the wrong bit where it said permissions/storage. Turns out I had just shy of 8Gb there!

I have Android 7, which doesn't have this feature ... do I need to clear the cache too? If so, does that mean I have to reinstall the app?

Poor camparison, Superbike championship and the TT etc use the frame and engine (and quite a few other bits too). A stock bike in the right hands can get reasonably close to their lap times, and one with light mods (say, €1000 extra and a bit of elbow grease) can be halfway between the two.

That's the one.

It's all just horseshit, if you want a motorbike with character, get a classic one. Hell, even my '82 Montesa manages to be reliable, yet has character out the wazoo.

Learn how to do bicycle maintenance and find a good second hand bike that needs a little love.

I have a Giant hard tail that was €1200 new, but I got it used for about €100. Serviced the brakes, put on a new chain, cleaned/oiled/greased everything mechanical and it's like a new bike.

Superbike championships use road bikes with a change of fairings and upgrades to things like exhaust, brakes, and suspension.

Hell, Isle Of Man TT lightweight class has used stuff like the ER6f as a base which is a budget commuter bike, lol

A halo model super sport is basically a street legal race bike.

Yeah, nah, Ducatis are like the carbon road bikes of the motorcycle world - all about dick waving. A little while back one of the larger YouTube channels took the latest Ducati to a track and put it up against a cheap 7 year old Suzuki, and the Suzuki was still faster ... and if you buy a Japanese sport bike it's not going to have the mechanical problems of a Ducati either.

Source: I have owned, ridden, repaired and raced a lot of motorbikes, including some fast-ish ones.
