Having turned the world upside down by coming out with a bike that wasn't really sensible at all, then revising it to become even more bonkers, BMW have again shaken things up with the latest incarnation of the S1000RR Lighter. tricker, more powerful. Because the old one was so lardy and uncomplicated... But is it any good?

We are always on the lookout for guest reviewers, and along came Jez Weaver with his KTM 1190 Adventureat just the right time. Here it is - tall, gangly and perhaps aesthetically challenged. And you thought I was going to throw in a cheap joke, didn't you. As if.

Supermotos were all the rage for a while, until people realised that they were uncomfortable, harsh and generally not very good. They were also rather expensive in a "less is (a lot) more" sort of way. The SWM SM500R addresses all those criticisms. Is the Supermoto valid again?

Staying Alive may be a great Bee-Gees song, but it's also one of my favourite pastimes. Along with riding motorbikes. So something which combines those two things must be fabulous. And it is. Absolutely bloomin' fantastic. BikeSafe is a brilliant concept that's been running a while now, and we tried the Surrey version. |
