31st October 2017

Not usually our cup of tea, but one we’d happily sup with a nice cake or three, mostly because the word ‘wheelies’ spring to mind with the new Z900RS! Based on the latest Z900, the RS harks back to the 1970s, hence the styling, er, obviously, and the Z range from that period which were…

We think that, honestly, until we actually get to ride the new NIKEN we are going to have no clue what to think about it – although it does look rather striking in an ‘Akira’ type fashion!

Yep, Ducati have created a helmet replacement scheme which, when you hand in your old noggin protector, will see them put £100 towards a Ducti branded Arai – isn’t that nice?! Some may see this as a nefarious plan to get you in a Ducati branded lid, but for many others this is a chance…

Yes indeed, Kawasaki have released pictures and details for the 2018 ZX-10RR, though a quick word of caution, the ‘new’ details are very light indeed… The only two updates are colours – the Showa canisters on the bottom fork leg are now silver rather than red, and the fork-top cap is now green, rather than…
