The best BMW just got better. Don’t risk a test ride unless you’re prepared to part with your cash. Yup, it’s that good.

Gets the job done, just not as well as BMW's GS.

The all-rounder that's the best off-roader gets fuel injection and anti-lock brakes to appeal to the sensible crowd. Has the fun factor been banished too?

The 500cc parallel-twin motor from the discontinued GPZ500 finds its way into a new Kwak trailie for '05. Should make a cracking first bike.

A great bike to live with day in, day out and manages to out-bat the Honda on all fronts. Hurrah for Blighty!

On sheer rideability the V-Strom is the leader of the pack, and, all things considered, the best all-round package in this class

For the price it is hard to knock the V-Strom. A lot of kit for minimal layout. A good touring bike
