2014 Thunderbird Commander review
Posted
by
If you just glance at the T-bird Commander’s shape and shiny twin-headlight grin, there doesn’t seem to be much difference between this latest mean-and-moody parallel twin and the Thunderbird Storm with which Triumph gave its cruiser line an extra dollop of menace back in 2011. Dig deeper though, and the Commander is very different…

Posted
by
£13,999 | 93bhp@5400rpm | 111lb-ft@3550rpm | liquid-cooled parallel twin It’s exactly 50 years since the Beatles arrived in America and became an even bigger British hit there than the Triumph Bonneville.

The truth about traffic police
Posted
by
Motor Cycle Monthly went undercover with the Road Traffic Police in Cambridgeshire to find out a bit more about what they do. It was nothing like The Sweeney… Sitting discussing Wayne’s Isle of Man TT tattoos and talking with Mark about how much fun he had riding Fizzies in his teenage years, it…

How to buy a Yamaha YZF R125
Posted
by
Styled just like the Yamaha R6, the YZF R125 offers credible big bike looks and handling for learners or commuters alike. It was a long time coming. Yamaha’s last saucy 125 was the 1990’s TZR125, a machine which was lusted after by the then learners who’ll now be in their 40s. I know, I…

Where have all the bargains gone?
Posted
by
At a recent bike auction, I heard that dealers were having to travel further afield to buy their stock. Prices paid at the drop of the hammer seemed high too… Great, I thought – biking’s on the up again! This must be the start of what’s going to be a brilliant year for biking.…
