Motorcycle Road Tests

Once the preserve of the mega rich, these first-generation Italian superbikes can now be snapped up for less than the cost of a new sports 600. Here’s the deal.

We destroyed Australia in the rugby World Cup, and quite possibly that’s all that matters. To give our underdog team a bit of extra support, TWO took the backroad route to France on a Kawasaki Versys, a Yamaha MT-03 and a Suzuki 650 Bandit...

What would get you out of bed an hour early in winter just to play on deserted roads? try the new KTM 990SM or Ducati’s Hypermotard. It certainly worked for us...

Escape the rat race and get away from it all in the peace and quiet of Southern Ireland. Leave work at 5:30pm and the next day you could be here for just £82 plus a few tanks of fuel

As Splitting Heirs contests go, this would seem the most one-sided fight yet. Only it's not. Thought the ZZR1400 to be the ultimate speed king? Well, maybe you've never ridden a 2002 ZZR1200 then...

Want it all? You're not alone. The CBR600F is Britain's best-selling motorbike of all time and not without good reason: it really is all things to all men (and women)

BMW K1200R, Harley-Davidson FLSTCI Heritage Softail, Triumph Rocket III - Three massive motorbikes that can go toe-to-toe with a tank

Aprilia Mille Factory, Ducati 999 and Honda SP-2 hurtle across Europe in search of sun, speed, a track day at Imola and a big day out at Italy's largest rock festival. Groovy!

Niall Mackenzie's long term review of the KTM SuperDuke

It was the maddest 1,000cc superbike in the world, then they tamed it. TWO rides both incarnations of the Kawasaki ZX-10R back to back...

The TWO team head onto Britain's roads to test seven of the best naked 1000cc bikes and come back with bug-splattered visors and stiff necks

The boys from TWO give the big four's litre superbikes a going-over

Sons getting embarrassed by their mums as we went last-minute Christmas shopping on the best sport-tourers in the country

Naked bikes and rude place names. Is there no level to which the TWO test team won't stoop to for a cheap laugh? Apparently not.

James Whitham rides a Kawasaki Z1000 for a year and delivers his review

Grant puts his feet up and enjoys the relaxing H-D Ultra Classic Electra Glide

Hogan earns the respect of BMW owners astride the funky G650 Xmoto

Simon calms down with the big Bandit

Have the latest sports 600s taken track focus to a level where it has limited their viability as road bikes? It certainly looks that way, but then looks can be deceiving...

Urry swaps the speed of sports bike for the sedate Tiger 1050 to experience the sense of adventure

The office puts the V-Strom through some hard miles

There are still a few bulldogs out there, bearing their teeth at the foreign hordes. Let's celebrate all things British with a little help from two of our own musical legends. Pip pip and tally ho!

Talk of twins and it's a fair bet you'll be imagining a Ducati 999 or Aprilia Factory. But what are the 'alternative' two-pot choices?

Ex-PB editor Mark Forsyth braves the 2007 Rizla GSX-R1000.
