    Dave Manning gets to grips with the big Beemer… Given that the ‘sports’ element of sports touring might err too much on the side of cramped rearsets and bars that put more stress on your wrists than the most extreme Only Fans sites, I opted for a bias towards the comfort side of things for…

    Yamaha Tracer 9GT ridden: Rich Taylor reports… I’ve had the chance to enjoy Yamaha’s 900cc CP3 motor a few times in the past, and it’s undeniably a peach, but I’d not ridden it dressed as a Tracer 9. In fact, I’d not ridden the Triumph or BMW either, but I was excited for the ride…

    Another adventure bike from Voge? You bet. But this one’s packing more grunt, a smoother 270° crank vibe, and a price tag that could make the Japanese big guns blush. Dave Manning reports… Voge’s latest introduction to their array of adventure-styled machinery is more of an expansion of their existing range than something brand-new. While…

    Aprilia has marked 10 years since its RS-GP first lined up on the MotoGP grid in spectacular fashion. Rather than producing a special paint scheme, the Italian manufacturer has unveiled the RSV4 X-GP – a track-only machine producing 238bhp and bristling with technology taken directly from its racing prototype. Just 30 examples will be built,…

Enter the V21L, Ducati’s latest prototype, now unveiled at the IAA Mobility in Munich.…

Both machines take already popular models and give them the full RS treatment, which in Ducati’s world means less weight, more performance, and a specification list that reads like a wish-book.
