By Niall Mackenzie on 30/09/2010 12:27:55
The VFR800 could be worse than its predecessor but it's still an institution to be reckoned with...

Honey, I've blown up the kid!
as well as the occasional burst of over-enthusiasm. Honda's claim for fuel economy is 30.8 km/litre, or 87.4 mpg. At the 70-mile mark of our test loop, which included a bit of town riding, a couple of good stretches of motorway and W.O.T., and lots

First ride review: 2013 Honda CB1100
By Tom Higham on 18/01/2013 15:56:09
Retro ride channels the soul of its legendary ancestor
and seventies, Honda is hoping that you might get to have a second bite at the apple now. The new 2013 Honda CB1100 looks great in the flesh. Waiting at one of the launch photo shoots I could see the bike silhouetted from a distance for the first time

First Ride: 2002 Honda CBR600F
By Visordown on 12/07/2002 09:52:54
Since the dawn of time - well, since the dawn of modern sports 600s - the CBR600 has sat there on or near the top of the pile, like a very old and wise stegosaurus that's beaten off the velociraptors and sits there, gently chewing the cud
