, brand, and only 200 produced! Overall: I had a new one from 3X motorcycles in 1992, sold it after a year, 21 years later it's turned up on ebay so I bought it back.The bike is 9.5/10 condition, and only covered 13,000 miles.'They don't build em like

were superb. Heated grips are not the best as you have to stop to adjust/turn off etc. could do with more heat too. My most enjoyable tour yet thanks to this lovely, characterful machine. Managed 155 miles on a section and still had 2 litres remaining

on bumpy UK roads there is no doubting the handling. Although it isn't as fast turning as you would expect from such a spindly machine and does seem to be slightly resistant when it comes to the initial turn, once on its ear it feels excellent. The DB6

at it in the sunshine with its swelte figure and shiny chassis . Twist-n-Go: FUN LITTLE BIKE. Strengths: -The low weight and that screaming two-stroke kick, this bike is such a laugh. -The handling is great, you can brake and turn so quickly; it can get you

balanced despites it's weight (600kg dry) and U turns are quite easy just keep the trhottle feathered. The bars are set for comfort and I've done 300 mile run and still felt ok after it. Weaknesses: Engine can pull the arms of anyone low down in the gears

of the turns at Mugello are third gear with the engine revving low, or second with it spinning higher – neither of which scenario upset the Ducati. As long as the revs are over the 5000rpm mark it pulls cleanly and strongly, but get it above 8000rpm

and slightly soft forks. Turn-in was quicker than the ST too, thanks to modified, 'sportier' steering geometry.Despite its virtues the RS never shone like the more popular ST. Instead, the RS's image was that of the solid family man. But, unassuming

to benchmark the MGS, which as a consequence shares its compact 1420mm wheelbase and 50:50 weight distribution. The swingarm is some 100mm longer than Guzzi used to use at 400mm, massively improving rear end behaviour, especially powering out of turns when

belts and continuously-wound aramid-fiber tread belt eliminate circumferential growth for cooler running and predictable performance under heavy use iancp5: Loved these Strengths: Grip, braking, turn in, exit, warm up time - everything really! Weaknesses

IT'S A VERY BALANCED BIKE I LOVE IT! Strengths: Easy to turn, Light weight, Heaps of power, Stable at slow speeds in traffic, Equally stable at high speeds on the open roads. I have the Black/Orange version and I get a lot of positive comments
