MV’s first touring bike is a winner

Put simply, the Fantic is the light, simple affordable, cheeky Scrambler Ducati should have built…but never could.

New electronic suspension delivers Öhlins goodness in all conditions and is the cherry on top of over a decade of development

Could this be Britain’s perfect road bike?

The best sports-touring motorcycle of its generation

The UK’s favourite Cub, the C90 has gone from budget commuter to usable and cherished classic

A lightweight dual sport trail bike that can handle a short commute

Benelli’s bargain small-wheeled 125 delivers big on value and fun

Completely commendable middleweight tourer/all-rounder, all that's lacking is a little bit of X-Factor

Hugely popular learner sports that's easy to ride, comfortable, gives good fuel economy and, above all, is a Honda

Rides like a dream.

I would rec to a friend. I like Hondas bravery here. It isn't a full retro which is a good thing - the 1970's were a long time ago. It has cafe racer leanings but also has its own design statement. Modern, elegant but taking some of the better design tips from the past. Overall its best feature is...

My favorite first bike,very capable and agile,lightweight,fantastic centre of gravity,I could stop at traffic lights and not have to put a foot down.wish I'd kept it

Best features - looks, sound (aftermarket Arrow pipe), exclusivity, road holding. Worst feature - tank range could be better (120 miles between fill-ups).

Just a perfect motorcycle. Equiped with a supersport 4 cylinder engine detuned down to Earth specs. You have the supersport engine sound in an allaround machine.

rear shock is "shocking", pointless if you weigh more than your average Joe. Replace at all costs. other wise everything else is as you would expect from Top of the range Honda

Best: handling and weather protection. Worst: Fairing makes going faster than is good for the licence far too easy. Weight when pushing it around, particularly on loose surfaces.

It’s expensive so is a waste if not used for touring. It’s great for two up and can carry a lot of luggage. It’s great riding solo, just change the engine and suspension modes at a click of a switch and you are in biking nirvana. It’s a very heavy bike so you need to be fit and strong.

very comfortable user friendly

standard tyres don't give much confidence although adequate they lack feedback
