First Ride: 2007 Honda CBF600S
By Jon Urry on 10/04/2008 22:19:58
An easy learner friendly machine, or a bike with about as much soul as a sandbag? Honda’s middleweight goes for function over style...
don’t understand why manufacturers feel girls can’t ride big bikes. Unfortunately in making it appeal to this demographic Honda has sucked all the life out of the CBF. A bit like those Dementors keep trying to do to poor Harry Potter.Fire up the engine

First Ride: Honda XL700 Transalp
By John Cantlie on 10/04/2008 22:59:27
Older than the hills themselves, Honda’s original Adventure bike just got itself a total makeover for 2008. And a whole new lease of life...
forward to inherit the earth.And into this odd-looking world comes a new Honda Transalp. I remember these things from back in 1987 when I was a mere nipper. They were white and blue and nobody was quite sure what to do with them, so they took them off-road

First Ride: 2006 Honda Fireblade
By Niall Mackenzie on 20/09/2010 22:47:05
It wasn't broken but Honda fixed it anyway. Niall plays 'spot the difference' with a freshly honed 2006 Fireblade
thrash in safety without the fear of spilling Werther's Originals all over the road.So why fix it if it's not broken? Honda says Fireblade owners complained of a lack of midrange grunt, losing out to the competition accelerating from 70mph and above

First Ride: Honda CB1300
By Grant Leonard on 13/09/2010 14:36:47
Remember the Big One, the Honda CB1000? Well this is the Even Bigger One, a bike that, like its rider(!), combines massive muscle with definitive retro appeal

Road Test: Honda FMX650
By Jon Urry on 27/04/2008 20:53:28
Honda goes for the youth market with the supermoto-styled FMX650. But is it just a re-hashed Dominator for a new generation, and will today's youngsters shell out this much cash when less can buy more?
with the FMX is the handling. We tested the bike on some tight and twisty roads as well as through town, and it was remarkably good. Once the typical supermoto dive under braking from the long-travel forks is over, the rest of the suspension is very well

First Ride: 2006 Honda CBF1000
By Simon Bowen on 20/09/2010 22:55:29
Evil Jim Bowen slings his leg over Honda's four-cylinder all-rounder
metallic scheme seen here.Right then, we've figured out that it's a vehicle for inexperienced downsized upstanding vicars who want to go unnoticed, and arrive very discreetly at their first session of the Surbiton Swingers. So why the hell has Honda seen

First Ride: 2011 Honda CBR250R
By Ben Cope on 23/04/2011 07:37:37
Honda enters the 250 arena with the CBR250R. Should the Ninja 250R be scared?
supplied with front ABS. Our test-model 250 had Honda's combined ABS which on a bike like this is a fantastic addition. The combined ABS allows you to eek out every last drop of grip from the front tyre and every last ounce of power from the single 6-pot
