    Rumours from Japan suggest that Honda is working on a smaller capacity version of its game-changing X-ADV adventure scooter – built from the bones of its recently updated Forza 300.

    Trails, twisties and traffic – Honda’s hugely successful CRF250L can do it all. Dual-sport motorcycles live in a land of compromise.

If I could own only one machine, it’d be a…

    Royal Enfield unveiled this awesome one-off Himalayan at the Bangkok Motor Sale earlier this year – and we love it. Essentially, the standard Himalayan has been overhauled to look like a factory Dakar racer. Sadly there’s been no news if the bike will go into production – or even compete in rally raid events in the future – but at…
