Living with a 2005 Kawasaki ZRX1200R

Warren 'Wozza' Pole blagged a Kawasaki ZRX1200R in 2005 and wrote this here review on it
August 2005Ever since Noah were a lad I've been raised on sportsbikes. Others have come and gone, but left to my own devices and I'll be back on a sportsbike before you can say 'shredded licence'.I decided it was time for a change. But to what? I

Living with a 2003 Suzuki SV1000
By Warren Pole on 12/09/2003 14:40:57
Warren Pole gives the Suzuki SV1000 a good threashing and then a good review. That's what you're after, isn't it?
September 2003Luckily for me (although perhaps less luckily for the Suzuki) I found myself in charge of our SV for a fortnight last month, and what a time we had of it because between us we packed in 800 miserable UK motorway miles, several soggy laps of central London, a visit t...

Living with a 2003 Suzuki GSX-R750 K3
By Warren Pole on 12/10/2003 14:48:11
Warren Pole appeared to have the most number of longterm motorcycles to review here, but seemed to write the least about them. Figure that out?
't change the fact these bikes make me very, very happy. They're modern classics and so much more individual than your ten-a-penny GSX-R1000s and R1s.Changes so far include throwing the standard steering damper in the bin (it's atrocious and wrecks low speed

First Ride: 2002-03 Aprilia RSV-R Mille
By Warren Pole on 29/03/2008 19:29:06
What on earth could Aprilia do to improve their already-ace Mille-R? Not an enormous amount as I discovered at the launch of the 2003 bike in Italy.
on the market, combining sublime track handling and class-leading brakes with bags of big twin punch, smooth fuel injection and plenty of Italian exclusivity. So why change it?Because Aprilia had to. The top line sportsbike market is a fashion-led and fickle one

Kings of the Hill
By Warren Pole on 22/06/2009 10:45:41
Ducati's Hypermotard goes toe-to-toe with KTM and Buell through the vicious twists and turns of a Championship hill-climb event in Wiltshire
and (unsurprisingly) up a large hill. There was a flat out charge into the first corner - a 90mph bottle job on cold tyres (no tyre warmers in hill-climbing), which threw you into a vicious steep uphill right-left with evil camber changes all over the place. Charge

Road Test: MZ 1000SF
By Warren Pole on 29/04/2008 21:01:23
The East Germans strip off in the name of freedom and liberate a thumping good naked bike from beneath the wraps of their less exciting 1000S
refreshing change. It packs more than enough punch but still leaves you feeling you're very much the one in charge.All in all, I'd say hats off to MZ. They've got a huge task ahead of them to prove their bikes are way better than the reputation their badge
