There's such a relaxed feel in that factory. I still think the 916 is the most beautiful sporsbike ever, with the MV F4. I'm surprised Foggy hasn't got one of his winning bikes in his house!

you haven't seen his house then? He has one in his passage as soon as you open the front door

Met Charley at goodwood festival of speed many years ago ,was happy to chat and reminded him of him being in “the emerald forest” when he was a kid , genuinely nice down to earth guy 👍👍👍

Probably the greatest moment in motorcycle racing ... Mike Hailwood comeback at the IOM TT ... won the Formula 1 race on a Ducati at his first attempt back ... Mike the bike Hailwood, The greatest ever

I love that Foggy still looks like at any given moment, he could be less than ten seconds away from being in deep mischevious trouble.

Il cuore ducati. Not just spaghetti, espresso, amore and show, but fundamental racing precision.

This encapsulates what is so terrific about being part of the bike world. I was lucky enough to own a V4S before I got sick and had major surgery. Having to let that go put a real dent in my biking heart. I’ll be back on one again one day….

Great video a really good watch and lovely motorbikes.

I visted the factory and museum on a few weeks ago. Amazing experience.

That was so cool, I'm lucky to live on the isle of man born n raised and we just had TT week and southern 100 is very soon, it's an amazing time of year people from all corners of the globe come in droves to see this yearly race and I love seeing all the bikes meeting all the people. Your all welcome n hopefully c u 2025.

As the owner of an XDiavel S and a 24 Streetfighter V4S, I wish I could have gotten more of the Paingale assembly line.

He also won at the TT as well. Not everyone’s cup a tea but was instrumental in securing the 916’s legendary status. A fantastic racer…

Hi Charley, my brother Peter is the guy you're working with currently I'm absolutely gob smacked 😊 I'm so so proud of him. Regards H

Hi Charlie from Greece. I am following you from the long way round.i missed my xr 600 also .happy to show my mountains in the north of Greece. Maybe u make a tour someday.all the best and stay healthy

Ducati have made some of the most gorgeous bikes on the planet, bikes that have transcended into art. But the Bentley Ducati isn't one of them.

Great video and whilst you have the obvious stars in the foreground, Simon Jackson sales manager at Ducati Stoke is a top bloke hovering in the background. Always at hand to ensure customer satisfaction 👍

Great video Charley, really great to see the factory and congrats to Carl as well. Hope you put out a lot more of these.

Awesome episode this,

Very impressive, and great video

Excellent video. All time favourite WSBK rider. King Carl. Makes you feel proud to be British. With the help of the Italians 😂🇮🇹🇬🇧

I met glen irwin and carl they are nicest bunch of riders I've come across

There’s some race series and dates that stick out as really awesome. Never to be repeated. Transatlantic Trophy in the 70’s. Sheene , Roberts and the rest. WSB in the 90s. Foggy, Edwards, Bayliss, Corsa etc. GP500 with Doohan, Swarz, Freddie Spencer, sheene, KR, Gardener and Dr 46 himself. Bloody hell there was some mad racing.

Let's not forget the human grass strimmer that was Pierre Francesco Chili.

Wow can't wait for the Ducati x Skoda.

Times like this I wish I never heard Borat talk …. “ it’s a very nice 👍 “

Makes me feel old remembering all those classic seasons and rivalries that weren't watered down and all P.C.! What got me in to racing in the first place!

Foggy is to blame for my love of Ducati

I visited last year, git to tick one thing off the bucket list :) ... brought back some great memories. The fountain in the background at the end if you take a photo at a special angle it makes him look like he has a big donger LOL

not many bike racing fans know Foggy nowaday. Carl Foggarty is one of the WSB legend in history.

Fogarty the legend. Carl Fogarty una leggenda che insieme a Ducati hanno fatto grandi cose. Bellissimi ricordi. ❤❤❤❤ ps. Bellissimo Video.

bello ed emozionante quando si e' aperta la porta scorrevole e carl si e trovato davanti le sue moto bellissimo ed emozionante ho visto carl emozionato nel vedere le sue moto sembrava che lo stessero aspettando , una bella emozione , e poi da italiano grazie carl per le tue vittorie in ducati rimarrai scolpito per sempre

Great to see Carl's face after all this time. Who would have won a 3 race shootout, Doohan v Foggarty. Mate that was an exciting time for bike racing.

Foggy was the reason I bought my 916 💪🏼😂🤣

“It’s a bit creaky”, is my morning routine getting up. Fun video, just enough of everything. 👍🤪🏳️‍🌈

Been to the factory. Gigi dall'igna walk right past me.

What's not to love in this video 🙂 I even like the utterly unaffordable Bentley Diavel. Congrats Carl.

Hard to believe his first championship was 30 years ago, seems like lit was just yesterday I was following him in all the motorcycle magazines and wishing that I could afford a Ducati 916.

Hey Charlie!

Foggy turns his back on the guy introducing the tour.

The ducati 996 is still a bike I'd pick over most Rsv4 or a classic ducati can't afford the v4 s it's a bike that looks good in the living room as a work of art

Press vankers!!! 🤩

Really need to ensure everyone has a mic and that the levels are dialed in properly. Constantly turning down the music portions and certain interviews were difficult to hear the party being interviewed.

I thought that the Bentley Ducati just looked like an orange Diavel... I was completely underwhelmed.

Glorious looking bikes….practical, everyday and useable? Would love one! But watching the corporate speak and arrogance I’m totally put off. My assessment would be that like BMW they are trying to squeeze the last out of the ageing performance/adventure segment. Where’s the entry offerings. I remember my posters from the 1970’s and brand loyalty was key as you would work through from an SS50 to a CB750! As every brand tried to offer. Good to see Triumph responding

Grande FOGARTY! 💫🇮🇹

King Carl & Queen Micaela

😍😍😍

foggy strait to the Vino

Boorman and Foggy are a good match.

Agree. Charley and Russ were a great team as well in all of Charley's adventures. I still watch By Any Means 1 & 2 every now and then.

Say hello to Carl from the Clarets.

I stumbled upon the museum/factory when I was driving to Maranello in my Porsche from UK. Didn't do the factory tour but enjoyed the museum.

Never knew Ducati was part of Bentley

I thought Fogarty was an arrogant git due to his pieces to camera. I got involved in a conversation with the Fogarty's and others at an SBK at Phillip Island, no cameras, no press and it changed my opinion. You couldn't have met a nicer couple. Then he fell off ......

That Bentley duke looks fucking awful.

Hey Charley what happened to that B.M.W. shit you rode sometime ago all down to money no doubt ??

The last thing I would ever buy is a Bentley/Ducati motorcycle. I am sorry, but that thing is fugly as hell. Massimo Tamburini must be turning in his grave.

Next time you read a 'review' of a Ducati or any other modern motorcycle brand cast your mind back to the journalists whooping and clapping over their free buffet and ask yourself how impartial that review actually will be.

most folks in the western world think these are among the worst bikes ever made.. overpriced in a big way, same old same old, ugly doesn't quite fit, bootleg ugly .. sorry man, bit of truth amongst the leg humpers and pozers

....said the envious poor failure who can't afford any of the best made & most beautiful bikes in history ! 😂🤣 Sorry, no offence, but your embarrassing naive comment looks even more pathetic than any harley can or any japanese flat grom ...! 😁😂 And this last seems much more truth than yours...

*yawn a couple of rich entitled guys have a day out woohoo

Shame about go to shit show of music?at th beginning 😮

Did the good folks at Ducati cringe every time Boorman said “DuCATti”? Did they move on to Germany and say “Porsh” over and over at the Porsche factory?

Everything I see Foggy in he seems like an arse. Is he?
