Launch ride: 2018 Triumph Tiger 800 XRT & XCA
Posted

Triumph’s latest Tiger 800s claim to be better in every way, on and off-road. We headed out to Morocco to see if that’s true. If you thought the UK road network was bad, take a little ride in Morocco where tarmac quite often only covers half the width of the road, with lorries and buses…

by
The new BMW K 1600 B bagger is big, brash and full of beans. Based on BMW’s heavy-duty tourer, the K 1600 GT, the Yankee-style bagger was originally revealed as a ‘Concept 101’ two years ago, and then confirmed as a production bike last year. Now it has landed in the UK, and you know…
