  • MOTO-GUZZI V85 TT (2019-2023)

    Overall owners' rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    Charming good looking and good handling bike with enough power in the real world, I've given 4 starts as the gearbox is a little clunky, and when wearing an open face helmet you can hear the mechanicals, I accept it's an air cooled twin and would have gone 4.5 stars but no option for that. I...

  • BMW R1250GS (2019-on)

    Overall owners' rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    The good... Comfort, especially over long distances is exceptional. I changed the seat to a Sargeant and that improved it even more.The bad... The linked brakes are ill conceived and, in my opinion, dangerous, to the point where they caused an accident. Cornering, to discover...

  • KAWASAKI ER-5 (1996-2007)

    Overall owners' rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    Comfortable seat for longer distances and very predicable power output. Reliable bike (once all issues are fixed up). Definitely overpaid for this bike knowing the problems it had. Paid £1300 and had to go rebuild the carb twice, swapped parts around, changed corroded parts (knobhead failed to...

  • DUCATI 1199 PANIGALE R (2013-2015)

    Overall owners' rating
    5 out of 5 (5/5)

    Due to "ride by wire" you need to set Race mode to have ok throttle response.. Very comfortable.. Good also for tall people. compared to 1198 etc So as comfy as a 999 with raisers. Exceptional suyspension - bad asfalt is quite ok .. better than what you find in normal stndard...

  • KTM RC390 (2022-on)

    Overall owners' rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    As an experienced rider coming back to bikes the only thing that lets this bike down is the lack of power, I understand it is to meet A2 requirements but overall, an extra few ponies would just bring the extra urgency this bike really needs.Handling is superb, brakes are great and it looks...

  • YAMAHA MT-09 (2024-on)

    Overall owners' rating
    5 out of 5 (5/5)

    the bikes best features are of course the engine but the addition of cruise control just makes things that much sweeter.

  • APRILIA RS660 (2021-on)

    Overall owners' rating
    5 out of 5 (5/5)

    Pluses: design(people turn heads), engine sound (it has a lot of character), good power delivery, comfy position, lot of electronic stuff that helps and make this bike very safeMinuses: squeking rear brake, dashboard looks little bit cheap but more expensive ducatis are not much better.

  • HONDA CB1100 (2013-on)

    Overall owners' rating
    5 out of 5 (5/5)

    An absolute gem of a modern interpretation of a classic bike. I take issues with those who say it has no character. It exactly replicates the feeling of an 80s, 90s Honda. Smooth, turbine like and reliable. That is a "character" . Bikes don't have to shake your teeth out to be characterful. And...

  • HARLEY-DAVIDSON STREET 750 (2015-2021)

    Overall owners' rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    Top speed is way more than 105 mph and I run a custom exhaust by yours truly. I also run a 200/55/17 Dunlop rear tire
