First Ride: 2011 Honda CBR600F
By Ben Cope on 10/03/2011 11:52:04
The return of the renowned CBR600F or just a full-faired Hornet?

You probably know someone that has, at one stage in their biking life, owned a Honda CBR600F. First launched in 1987, it has been the bedrock of middleweight Honda sales, but, unlike the VFR or NC models, it never really got cult status. It’s never been ‘a must own’ and yet tens ...

First Ride: Ducati 848 Evo review
By Ben Cope on 20/04/2011 10:16:47
Ducati's entry-level sportsbike packs more punch but is power it's real strength?

In 1994, when Ducati launched the 748 with the exact silhouette of the 916 it truly was a baby superbike.In 2003 the 749 carried on fighting the Supersport fight but then in 2008 Ducati launched the 848 and not the 750 or 751 you might have reasonably expected. An additional 100c...

Ah, the R. A letter that invokes visions of exotica, exclusivity and excess carbon fibre. For those lucky enough to have owned one, those thoughts are quickly dispersed by the memories of a numb arse, stiff neck and probably sore wrists, too.The R, once preserve of the superbike ...

First ride: Suzuki GSR750 ABS review
By Ben Cope on 05/07/2012 12:37:14
GSR750 versus life. Put through its paces on the commute, endless A-roads and twisty country lanes - how does Suzuki's middleweight stack up on UK roads?

It's obvious when you think about it: but there aren't many motorcycles out there that create a new niche when they enter the market - most new models are an answer to a rival manufacturer's offering or a slight tweak on an existing theme.When a bike does barge its way onto the s...

By Ben Cope on 28/04/2013 10:04:37
The Burgman 650 gets an overhaul after 10 years flying Suzuki's maxi-scooter flag. Are the updates enough to satisfy the Burgman-massive?

IT’S 10 years since the first Burgman 650 and 14 years since the 250 and 400 versions which essentially gave birth to the Burgman brand.The Executive version of the 650 was launched two years after the initial model, offering ABS, heated grips, a heated seat and electric mirrors....
