Suzuki
A MA OR WEIGHT LOSS, NEW CHASSIS, BIG PISTON FORK AND BREMBO BRAKES, BUT WITH NO DIRECT COMPETITION, SIGNS OF COMPLACENCY TOO It used to be the case that the GSX-R600 was a GSX-R750 with a smaller engine. 'I'he bike that mattered was the three quarter litre machine as it had ZXRs and YZFs to worry about - even the VFR had a shout. Now the 750 wanders lonely between the 600 and 1000 sectors. Its development priority is as a big 600, which actually doesn't sound at all like a bad thing. The...
Kawasaki Zx10ri
AFTER DEBUTING IN THE MIDDLE EAST, IT'S TIME TO BRING THE NEW NINJA TO THE WESTTO CHECK ITS UK DEXTERITY It's not surprising that Kawasaki was the first to react to BMW's S 1000 RR. Yamaha was stuck with the semi-failed cross-plane-cranked Rl, Honda is currently too sensible for such skullduggery, Suzuki likewise. But Kawasaki has always insisted on offering the wild ride in the litre class. And the 2011 ZX- 10R offers exactly that, but there's a new sense of sophistication and control without...

John Hopkins
Well, you could, but it'd probably be messy I'd love to see a proper race series though a bunch of guys flying down the mountain through huge inflatable rings would be so cool. It'd give the Red Bull Air Races a whole new meaning he chuckled. But back to earth, and bikes, what's the deal with coming over here and stealing our women. Sorry, race seats Basically, I looked at all of my options for 2011 and, in particular, which ones would get me back to MotoGP for 2012. There weren't many...
New Rider
Isregarding the snazzy new paint and Combined ABS additions, jumping on the CBR feels like a trip back to the Eighties, never mind the Noughties. The dash is suffering from chronic ageing, as are the switchgear and fork tops. The Honda also lacks a slipper clutch, yet it has the only fuel gauge in the class - a slight salvation, and it's digital. Whatever next Let's be nice about the Honda and just say that it's just too old against this opposition. It's received minimal changes in recent...

Ducati Diavel
lSPARRED WITHA LOCAL ON A CSX-R1000 - THI515 A SERIOUS COMPLIMENT FOR THEDIAVEL99 Using the infamous Ronda to Marbella road as the Diavel's launch is a brave move. One look at the giant 240-section rear Pirelli on a 17 rim, many customs use an 18 , the long wheelbase, low pegs and the chassis twisting grunt generated by the motor is enough to muster only a gentle first pass through a turn. But having got through to the exit in once piece you try it again, but with more pace. This escalation of...
