2010 BMW F650GS Review
Posted
by
This bike’s got an 800cc engine. Nobody, even at BMW, knows why it’s called an F650. Similarly, no one seems to know why the F800GS – the more off-roady of the two 800cc GS bikes – gets the more powerful engine (more power is generally a liability off-road) while the roadster gets the restricted motor.…

2010 MV Agusta F4 Review
Posted
by
MV’s F4 has always been stylish and fast, but it hasn’t always had the refinement to match. So, while the most obvious result of the new F4’s comprehensive revamp is a sharper, more angular look, the other, more important changes have a very definite aim. Like MV’s recently updated naked Brutales, the latest F4 has…

2003 Harley Davidson 883 Sportster 100th Anniversary Used Review
Posted
by
9387 miles, up for £3195 First impressions: Although I’m not that much of a Harley fan, I can see the all-shine, no grime attraction. Harley-Davidson have been knocking out bikes for over 100 years now, so they must be doing something right. So, how did they celebrate 100 years in the business? Well, they…

2002 Aprilia RSVR Tuono Used Review
Posted
by
4472 miles, up for £4695 First impressions: Before the flashy Racing version of the Tuono appeared, the RSVR version had all the weapons fitted. Ohlins forks and shocks, and even a steering damper are all original fitment. Most of the black bodywork is either carbon or Kevlar. The carbon fibre nose cone is pure class.…

Understand the driving force behind your bike with MCM’s handy hints and know-how… When should I replace my chain? A worn-out chain will sap power and potentially become dangerous.

2009 Mavizen TTX01 review
Posted
by
Mavizen, the company behind the TTX01 superbike and promoters of the first ever zero-emissions international motorcycle race, have salubrious new headquarters in Gerard’s Cross, South Bucks. That’s where I found myself the last week of January. Chris Hodder, government relations executive of the BMF, was there too. We were to share the honour of being…

2009 Kawasaki ZX-10R winter riding review
Posted
by
Changes to the latest version of the awesome Kawasaki ZX-10R make it more user- friendly, a move tester Ian Grainger gives his full approval. There’s a time and a place for riding nine-grand’s worth of one of the world’s fastest superbikes. Mid February, on damp roads and with the temperature just a tad above freezing,…

Triumph Bonneville T100
Posted
by
Unashamedly celebrating the past, the Bonneville T100 serves a perfect reminder of how things used to be back in the days when open-face helmets were the norm and the Ace Café was doing a roaring trade with rockers. One of three Bonnevilles in the current range, the T100 is the most authentic replica of…

2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000
Posted
by
For 2009 Suzuki’s GSX-R1000 is entirely new, but can it still work as well on the road as it does the track, or is this a motorcycle that is only good for one thing? Abusing tyres? Let’s get one thing straight right from the off here. I am not some wannabe Superbike racer who…

2009 Honda CBF125 Review
Posted
by
Honda’s all-new CBF125 may not be as drop-dead gorgeous as Yamaha’s stunning YZF-125 or as sporty looking as its popular CBR125 stablemate, but it’s a whole lot more practical, quite a bit cheaper and it’s not bad looking either. The 125 class has started to make a bit of a comeback at long last. For…
