Fast Bikes India - April 2019

In dit nummer

Summer is here and we have tested Bajaj’s flagship motorcycle that has been under the knife to bridge the gap to the competition in terms of both power and features. To find out how much better it has become , we pit it against rivals – KTM 390 Duke and BMW G 310 R.

Bajaj Dominar vs rivals

Will the power-cruiser live up to its UG moniker or will it come across as a watered-down orange bruiser? Find out more in this issue’s cover story!

BMW F 850 GS

The F 850 GS seems to be the proverbial elder sibling to the F 750 GS, what with 12 more horses, 4Nm more of torque and a lot of off-road specific wizardry. But does that justify the asking price?

YAMAHA MT-15

Yamaha has brought the MT moniker to the masses and it looks promising, with almost all the bells-and-whistles of the R15 V3.0 in an appealing, naked package. But is that all it is? We find out, and at the BIC no less!

BENELLI TRK

Benelli’s new-found partnership with the Mahavir Group brings us the TRK duo. These off-road capable ADVs are aimed at enthusiasts with pockets not yet deep enough to afford the top-shelf stuff. But does that mean they’re a compromise?

DUCATI HYPERMOTARD 950

Ducati’s groove seems to be about pushing the limits. So should the mental supermoto show even milliseconds hesitation to proclaim its Italian heritage? Nope. But you’ll need to read our story to know exactly how unapologetic it is!

PLUS MORE

The motorcycle way of life involves understanding how they work. And getting a clear picture of this means tinkering with them. That’s what we’re aiming to provide in our helpfully-titled Workshop section which debuts in this issue and of course, there’s Cartier Concours d’ Elegance for all classic bike aficionados. Lastly, we bring you the best accompaniment to the Thrill of pedal-powered Riding in the form of the Giant Roam3, a bicycle that claims to be able to do it all, and we call its bluff.

All this and much more in the April issue of Fast bikes India.
