One of the perks of being an A&R Pro member, is having more direct contact with our editorial team. So, from time to time I want to have a loosely structured conversation with loyal readers about...well, anything.

I see these forums as a good opportunity to ask any questions you have about happenings in the motorcycle industry or in the various motorcycle racing series; get advice and opinions about motorcycles, gear, and accessories; and follow-up on any questions that might be lingering from recent stories.

I will try to answer questions to the best of my knowledge, but if I don't know something (like, why did Honda put a titanium fuel tank on the CBR1000RR), I'll dig into my robust contact list, and get some answers.

To get the ball rolling, here are some possible topics that I see as ripe for discussion:

• The best motorcycles from the 2016 model year
• Predictions for the 2017 MotoGP & World Superbike Championships
• Riding with the new AGV Corsa R and Pista GP R, and general questions about helmets
• Changes in the moto-media landscape
• Why it's a damn shame that not everyone owns a supermoto
• Best tips for winterizing your motorcycle
• Why you should never get involved in a land war in Asia
• How to use the three seashells
• And of course, questions and feedback about A&R Pro

If you're an A&R Pro member, come on in, and let's have a chat in the comments section of this story.
