Who needs big bikes?

The new Hypermotard 939 might be fun, but it still means business

SO  many bikes make so much power that you have to ration it on the road. What happened to machines that were fun because you could spend an entire afternoon thrashing one without going to jail? I don't mean bikes that are just slow.

Three years after its debut, with the addition of traction control and an improved throttle response for 2016, the MT-09 is still an astonishing bike for the money

With a restyle and no fewer than 200 changes, Honda is aiming to make the CBR500R and CB500F the ideal A2 bikes. Has it hit the mark?

Tom Rayner takes the pintsize Ducati Scrambler Sixty2 for a ride in Barcelona

DUCATI  has a hit on its hands and I get the impression even it is surprised by the level of its own success. 16,000 Scramblers were sold last year, enough to propel Ducati into the top ten worldwide sales chart of bikes over 500cc for the first time in its history.

With 140hp, Triumph's 2016 Speed Triple still hasn't caught up with the likes of BMW's S1000R - but it doesn't need to, argues Steve Farrell

When you've tried the Ducati XDiavelS, a cruiser suddenly makes a whole lot more sense

DUCATI  broke the cruiser mold when it launched the  Diavel  in 2010. In fact it smashed it to bits with a mallet.

Peak power may be slightly down but the Brutale 800 now has torque wherever you look and an electronics package to make the most of it
