Buyer Guide: Honda CBF1000
Aside from a few charging system problems, Honda’s rider-friendly yet rapid CBF1000 has carved a place in a great many riders’ affections. Here’s the how and why from those riders
Buyer Guide: BMW K1200 & K1300

Niall's Spin: Ducati Monster S4R
The Ducati Monster maybe a absolute blast but takes a real man to tame this one...
Niall's Spin: KTM Duke II
It might be light and peppy to start off with but the fun quickly dries up once you get started.
Niall's Spin: Honda CB900F
The Naked Bike that everyone forgot about but Niall Mackenzie tells us why Honda CB900F shouldn't be ignored.
Ducati Monster M900 (1993) review
The bike that saved Ducati was a design icon, which remained unchanged for 15 years. Forget the 916, the Monster is the bike that made Ducati what it is today
First Ride: 2006 Bimota DB6 Delirio
A beautiful symbiosis of man-made and machine-manufactured? Or an over-priced, over-sexed, under-powered and over-here Italian?
First Ride: 2006 Ducati Monster 695
Low capacity Monsters of old have been a little on the cheap side, so will this new model reflect Ducati's upmarket image?
First Ride: 2006 Cagiva Raptor 650
Italian style meets Japanese functionality as Suzuki donates its new SV650 engine to Cagiva's aggressively-styled naked tool.
Ducati Monster S2R 1000 (2006)
We try out the Ducati Monster S2R 1000 for size. It boasts a 1000cc air-cooled engine, but how well does it ride on the roads?
First Ride: Moto Guzzi Griso
Better-looking than the concept bike that spawned it, Guzzi's bruiser is sportier than you'd think - so much so that our man nearly had a 'wardrobe malfunction'.
Niall's Spin: Suzuki SV1000
Suzuki comes back with the SV1000 but will it outshine the TL1000 with a rewarding experience or live up to its predecessor's reputation?
Niall's Spin: Kawasaki ZRX1200
The Kawasaki may look fantastic and turn heads around, but does it offer that satisfying experience you are dying for?
First Ride: Yamaha MT-03
Small, but perfectly formed. Yamaha's baby boomer is the perfect antidote to the humdrum urban commute
First Ride: 2002 Suzuki GSX1400 review
Just another member of the Bandit family? Not quite. Suzuki delve back into the history books to bring you a genuine muscle bike with all the trimmings. Niall Mackenzie finds it's not quite what he expected
First Ride: 2001 Moto Guzzi V11 Sport Naked review
In my youth there were few bikes that I really hankered for. One was the Suzuki GT750 Kettle - that was my dream bike - but one other was a close second...the Moto Guzzi Le Mans
MT-03 (2006 - 2013) review
Small, but perfectly formed. Yamaha's baby boomer is the perfect antidote to the humdrum urban commute.
First Ride: 2002 Aprilia Tuono
Aprilia's belated entry into the big-bore naked class. Is it too little too late, or should the Ducati Monster run scared?
2003 Suzuki SV650 review
Its faired brother is more suited to motorway miles, but how does the naked 2003 SV650 handle rush hour traffic?
First Ride: Suzuki SV1000 review
It's big, naked and bloody good fun to ride. Suzuki's SV1000 finally lands and instantly
starts to win friends and influence people
First Ride: Buell XB12R and XB12S review
Having run out of weather related names Buell decided to stick with its current monikers for the latest offerings. We put them through their paces
Used Test: Kawasaki ZRX1100
The ZRX1100's retro styling absolutely rocks...And it's got a flexible and powerful motor, boasts sporty handling and is a bit of a bargain to boot
First Ride: 2003 Ducati Monster S4R
With 130,000 sold since 1993, the Monster has been (ahem) a monster success for Ducati. Now here's the sportiest version ever - the S4R
