    We’re out in Tenerife for the launch of Yamaha’s updated Tracer 700 for 2020 – and after a full day in the saddle, here are our (very brief) first impressions.   The big changes for Yamaha’s 2020 Tracer 700 include an updated 689cc motor, adjustable suspension both front and rear, revised bodywork, an inverted LCD…

    A sprightly, race-inspired minnow that’s fun to ride at a daft price.

    Pushing the boundaries of what a 125cc commuter is capable of; we’ve been riding Lexmoto’s Isca 125 hard – taking on twisties, town traffic and a treacherous commute.

    The basics are the same (engine, frame, brakes, etc.), with a few choice tweaks to give it that sporty edge (clip-ons instead of bars, smaller sculpted tank, smaller pegs set slightly further back).

    Could you ride it as an everyday bike? Could you use it to pop to the shops/pick up your takeaway on it?

    We’ve been on a road trip to put the big scramblers from Indian, Ducati and BMW through their paces. It’s always good to get a bunch of bikes together and go out for a blast as a group. It’s even better if you’ve got a bit of time to cover some miles across some cracking…

    Having first reviewed an earlier version of Benelli’s learner-legal pocket rocket some three years ago, Mau was interested to see how the latest reincarnation would compare. Way back then, this little growler won a special place in his heart with its balls-out extrovert approach to the learner-legal market. What – if anything – will have…

    We’ve been out on the Yamaha Tricity 300, the latest three-wheeler; putting it through its paces on a mix of Leicestershire and Rutland’s finest roads. We’ve seen the lot, from single track B-roads covered with gravel through to fast sweeping A-roads and a bit of dual carriageway for good measure. We’ve just got back, and…

    WORDS: Mikko Nieminen – Motorcycle Sport and Leisure magazine / PHOTOGRAPHY: Suzuki We can all agree that Suzuki’s flagship adventure bike has been in need of a bit of an update for a while now. What’s unlikely to be agreed quite so universally is whether the new V-Strom 1050XT now has all the bells and…
