6th December 2023

£2500-£7000 It’d be rude not to mention the bike which the DEs replaced. The V-Strom 650 is widely considered a brilliant ‘little’ bike, that’s long been regarded as a smart choice by bikers who approve of its usability, versatility and exceptional value for money.

It wasn’t particularly on-trend, offering neither the off-road capable all-rounder abilities of a ‘traditional’ adventure bike which were in vogue at the time, nor the eye-widening performance of a more focused sporty tourer. But it’s a brilliant bike, superbly put together (it’s…

24th November 2023

The Niken GT might be designed to cover serious mileage, but I’ve actually been riding it primarily on my daily commute.

22nd November 2023

Our reviewer Kate Chorley gives feedback on her Roadskin Taranis Elite motorcycle jeans! I don’t always get on well with bike jeans. I’ve often found them a little too thick, occasionally uncomfortable, and frequently ill-fitting – but this pair from Roadskin are just right. They’re a good-looking, true-to-size, figure-flattering option which look good both on…
