In short:We have the real deal from Britain to match the Japs with the Daytona. Going racing for the first time in three decades has underlined the confidence Triumph has in its 600. Pros:We have the real deal from Britain to match the Japs

in Britain. The bike is light and easily flick-able making it great to navigate through traffic, its only 49 cc but can comfortably keep up with traffic offering a smooth and comfortable nippy ride. ITS CHEAP Weaknesses: The bike is extremely reliable, has

and a front brake disc. The large engine capacity was designed to be attractive to the US market and compete with the likes of Triumph, Harley and BMW. It certainly made a good job of that, selling hundreds of thousands and helping to end Britain

in Japan last year, and now it's available elsewhere - though not just yet in Britain.Power comes from an air-cooled, 249cc single-cylinder engine making a modest 19bhp at 7500rpm. With 35mm forks, single discs front and rear, plus narrow wire-spoked wheels

anywhere else!!! Overall: Where do you ride most, think about it... I did, and came to the conclusion that I needed smaller, lighter and slower (speed camera Britain) bike for the 80-90% of my riding, and the fact that my mates generally no longer had

bikes on the market in 15 years? Yes there were, but not that much better. This was a great all rounder and nothing seemed to be that much better. Not until the 675;not an all rounder but the best 'pure sport' bike Britain have produced and finally

900r continued production in Japan until the A16 in 2003. I bought my GPz A8 new back in 1996 and travelled about Britain and Europe on it. I found it to have personality and a natural raw power that seemed missing on the VFR800 VTEC I bought in 2003

with a high quality feel suitable for 'climate change' Britain. Strengths: Completely waterproof - Even on the gloomiest of British summer days, the rain either runs off or pools in the creases. Gore-Tex doing its job well. I haven't been had a soaking

. Quality components come as standard. WP suspension, Brembo brakes, Magura bars, strong Japanese engine. For an extra £925 you can have the supermoto package which effectively gives you another bike. And finally, it's built in Britain by a dedicated team

and as much of a laugh as it were the first day i got it. it is perfect on the track and on the road. i have a 2000 'R' model with the ohlins and carbon parts etc. Marvo Ging: LOVE / HATE. Strengths: Thunderous engine, sounds like the Battle of Britain
