Used: HJC FG-15 helmet
By Christopher Dodd on 29/03/2013 10:56:00

First Ride: 2013 Yamaha TMAX Black Max 530 review
By Ben Cope on 11/04/2013 17:13:00
Yes, it's been out for a while but Yamaha never invited us on the launch. We pitch it against London's broken streets and Birmingham's frozen motorways.
, no problem.The 2013 TMAX is a great scooter but for the price it's not the best package out there. The TMAX retails at £8,699 while the BLACK MAX with Akrapovic slip-on exhaust costs £8,999.To justify that sort of money I'd want all the creature comforts

First Ride: 2013 BMW F800GT review
By Ben Cope on 14/03/2013 17:55:41
