Affordable exotica
Not all bikes are born equal, but just because something’s that little bit rarer, it doesn’t mean you’ll need an extra two jobs to earn the crust to buy one.
We take a look at 10 used, affordable exotic options.

When carbs went cold
Where would we be without fuel injection? While the transition from carbs might not have been the smoothest of journeys, it’s possibly one of the most worthwhile innovations to hit the world of two wheels. Here’s how it happened.

Addiction: CF Moto’s V4 superbike
Having lit up the EICMA show, we get down and dirty with the tech behind this future headliner.

Crack the track
We send Grace to Donny for some fast laps with riding pros. Here’s what she learned on the Sylvin Barrier Coaching Experience.

Triumph unleashes new Street Triple 765 RX and Street Triple Moto2™ Edition

Triumph's impressive stake in the performance naked sector has just gone up a gear following the announcement of two new weapons: the Street Triple 765 RX and the ultraexclusive Street Triple Moto2™ Edition. Both machines have just been unveiled on Triumph's stand at Motorcycle Live and build on the much-loved RS platform, sharpening geometry, bolting on premium kit, and wrapping it all in styling that screams performance.

BMW'S BABY GS

Let's face it, not everyone wants a whopping big adventure bike in their life, and BMW gets that more than most. It's probably the core reason it's unleashed the new F 450 GS - a bike aimed squarely at the booming A2 adventure market, which drags a hefty dose of R 1300 GS design swagger into the 48hp class. With its unmistakable GS beak, X-shaped LED running light and slim, racy tail, the baby GS looks every inch the younger sibling of BMW's flagship bruiser.

NEW FIVE-CYLINDER MOTOR FROM MV AGUSTA

MV Agusta has never been shy about doing things in a beautifully unhinged way, but the surprise arrival of its all-new five-cylinder engine concept at EICMA 2025 sent even seasoned superbike nerds into a slack-jawed stupor. And now the Italians have lifted the lid on exactly what they’re cooking in Schiranna... and it's nothing short of glorious madness.

MV UNLEASHES ITS BRUTALE SERIE ORO

MV Agusta has marked its claim on the middleweight naked class with the arrival of the all-new Brutale Serie Oro. At its core sits the brand-new 950 EVO triple, a snarling, counter-rotating crank masterpiece pumping out 148bhp at 11,200rpm and 107Nm at 8400rpm. Even better, 85% of that shove is on tap from 3500rpm... proper road-riding grunt. With finger-followers, revised cam profiles and optimised cooling and lubrication, MV says it's stronger, smoother and – dare we say it – more reliable than any Brutale before it.
