By Niall Mackenzie on 20/09/2010 22:47:05

Bloodlust - Honda NR750 vs. Ducati Desmosedici
By Niall Mackenzie and Jon Urry on 19/05/2009 15:30:27
Honda’s NR750 and Ducati’s Desmosedici are two of the most stunning bikes ever built. Each are worth £40,000 and both were developed from pure GP technology. There may be an incredible 16 years between them, but exclusivity this rare is timeless
, but the Ducati represents the most technically-advanced road bike ever built. It is the Honda NR750 of its day. - Niall MackenzieContinue the Honda NR750 versus Ducati Desmosedici road testMODEL SPECSDUCATI DESMOSEDICI RRPRICE: £40,000ENGINE: 989cc, liquid

First Ride: Honda CBR600RR (2007)
By Niall Mackenzie on 02/04/2008 11:42:59
Yamaha won the supersport 600 sales war in 2006, and Honda is out for revenge. They think the all-new CBR600RR is the tool for the job, and Niall Mackenzie reckons they might be right.
. The parallels continue...In 2006, for the first time in the 600RR's five-year history, Honda failed to top the European sales charts. Yamaha's new R6 did that, and if it hadn't been for a bizarre lack of concentration from Kevin Curtain at last round

Niall's Spin: Honda VFR800 (2002-2005)
By Niall Mackenzie on 11/10/2010 16:20:42
Arguably the original sports tourer and certainly the best - or at least that was the case before Honda monkeyed with the formula when it relaunched the VFR with VTEC in 2002..
I love the looks of the VFR with its mix of clean lines and angular bits, and the techno dash and ergonomics are spot-on too. And it's got a single-sided swingarm, which always does it for me. The VFR looks like a sports bike, and goes like one of five years ago or so. But there'...

First Ride: 2005 Honda CRF450R - CRF250R
By Niall Mackenzie on 30/03/2008 22:29:28
Niall gives Honda's '05 model CRF450 and 250 'crossers a muddy run for their money.
Apart from winning the grin of the month award, having two motocross launches in two weeks gave me a great opportunity to compare two of the fastest moto-crossers ever built, the Suzuki RM-Z450 and the Honda CRF450R.CRF450RThe Honda hasn't changed
