  • KOVE 800X PRO (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    Brand new offering from Kove has all the ingredients to be a genuine contender in the middleweight adventure bike class

  • CF MOTO 800NK ADVANCED (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    If you are comparing like-for-like, and ignoring the name on the tank, it’s a very tempting sporty middleweight and incredible value for money

  • YAMAHA MT-09 SP (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    More composed and capable than the regular MT-09, as well as feeling more of a true sports edition, justifying the SP tag better

  • YAMAHA WR450F (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    5 out of 5 (5/5)

    This is a 450 that thinks it’s a 250, it loves to dive into the tight stuff; hopping and bopping through the Welsh woods felt almost effortless

  • BMW S1000XR (2020-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    As before the XR is still a classy all-rounder that can dish out savage performance one minute and be happy at cruising in comfort the next

  • BMW F800GS (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    A more substantial-feeling middleweight GS model that has a high spec list, low-price tag, and the ability to be made A2-legal if required.

  • ZEEHO AE8S+ (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    3 out of 5 (3/5)

    Zeeho may be an unknown name in Europe, but relatively cheap prices, KTM Group backing, and perky performance could make the AE8 S+ a winner

  • MAEVING RM1S (2024-on)

    MCN rating
    4 out of 5 (4/5)

    A refreshingly different 125-equivalent electric motorcycle for town and city riding

  • BMW M1000R (2023-on)

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

    By far the best bike I have ridden. I test rode all the competition and nothing comes close to the handling poise and performance. Easy to ride at any speed and a full on sports bike performance when you want it

  • BMW R1200RT (2010-2013)

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

    As a sport touring bike shaded to touring, well recommended due to how it compares to other bikes in that class. For its vintage, very well equipped and the lighter weight is why you might prefer it over an FJ, Concours 14, Honda ST1300. As an older lifelong rider the comfort and relative...

  • KAWASAKI ZZR1400 (2012-2020)

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

    I wanted a fast motorcycle because I knew it would be the last one that I would purchase and I wanted it to look great . This motorcycle turns heads no matter were you go some one is always telling me nice bike. Its very quiet you can hear the engine before you can hear the exhaust. The...

  • HARLEY-DAVIDSON SPORT GLIDE (2018-on)

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

    Had a street Bob Special with forwards and I loved it... This is faster but maybe slightly lacking in character compared to the twin cam (but I had V&H exhausts on the Bob)... I love Harleys BUT I'm no HOG rider... I'm a biker who loves Harleys... They feel cool, They're very comfy, I LOVE...

  • BMW K1200S (2004-2008)

    Overall owners' rating
    2 out of 5 (2/5)

    Reliability and repair costs are stupefying if it goes wrong

  • KAWASAKI ZX-10R (2011-2015)

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

    Best features: power (especially after a remap), handling, reliability. Worst features: Standard gearing too high, brakes ok on road but need upgrading for track riding, standard electronic steering damper isn't up to the job. I have owned this bike for 8 years now and have made a few...

  • DUCATI 916 (1994-1998)

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

    Watched superbikes in the 90's and blown away by the looks and track results. Bought it for those reasons. Heart not head, no regrets. You don't need to ride it - just look and listen to the engine/exhausts and dry clutch rattle.

  • HONDA CL500 (2023-on)

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

    Such a joy to ride . Hassle free and plenty of usable power

  • KAWASAKI ELIMINATOR 500 (2024-on)

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

    model canadien a 52,7 hp a 1005rpm sur dyno a la roue arriere tres impressionnant vue le poid leger

  • HUSQVARNA NUDA 900 (2011-2012)

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

    The engine is an absolute peach. Pulls hard in every gear, just torque everywhere you look. The exhaust note: Oh my word. Absolutely addictive, and it makes no difference which exhaust you use, its still beautiful. Rising position is perfection, I could rise it all day for touring. Best front...
