    2014 Ducati 899 Panigale review

    by

    £12,496 | 898cc liquid-cooled V-twin | 148bhp | 73lb-ft The 899 Panigale looks almost identical to the 1199 that began the Panigale family two years ago, but it’s distinctly different — and not just in its engine capacity.

With brand…

    Reviewed by: John Milbank RRP: £359 The GoPro Black edition stands out in the range with its ability to shoot at 120fps at a resolution of 720p. This puts super-slow-mo footage in the hands of us all, which looks great with bike footage. Even at full HD (1080p), the GoPro will shoot at up to 60fps.…

      Tested by: John Milbank, Editor MCM | RRP: £14.99 | www.bulletpolish.co.uk This great value kit contains 500ml of ready-to-use wax spray, and two good quality microfibre cloths. I’ve long used fairly expensive hard waxes on my bikes and cars, so was sceptical of this water-based spray. First impressions are good – it’s very simple to apply,…

    Tested by: John Milbank, Editor MCM RRP: £12.99 ISBN: 978-1-845844-30-1 Having owned two Ducatis, I thought I knew all I needed when I started looking to buy another Monster.

    Q. I was out riding with my other half on the back of my Bandit 1200 when I cocked up a corner, ended up in the gutter and bounced off through a hedge. Not my finest hour. I walked away with a bruised ego but my wife ended up breaking her wrist and her leg.…

    Q. I was on my bike, filtering through traffic on my BMW GS1200. I had my metal panniers on so it’s pretty wide. As I went past a beaten-up old Ford Escort, the driver moved to the right by about a foot, clipped my nearside pannier and nearly knocked me off. We pulled up at…
