Sports Bike; 998 cc; Over 100 kW /~ 136 HP ; Number of Cylinders: 4; No ABS as standard

The Suzuki is a much more bonkers ride, and the 'Blade is more slick, but the looks of the Yamaha YZF-R1 are to die for, and Fast Bikes enjoyed the ride it offered saying it was a great machine. …

There wasn't much to fix in the stock Ninja ZX-6R, but some tweaks have made an even more impressive machine. Handling is amazing, the stocker is fantastic, and the weight loss it's gone …

The Suzuki GSX-R600 has become too nice, and lost the off-the-hook rawness of the older models, which Fast Bikes would happily welcome back. They weren't keen on the white wheels or S-DMS, but …

It required a significant outlay, but this modded Suzuki GSX-R1000 ended up coming on top of all its rivals in Fast Bikes' group test. It's not exactly a looker and it's lacking a …

As far as looks go, this wouldn't be most people's first choice, but if you can get over its drab styling, Fast Bikes reckon you'll find a lot to like in Kawasaki's ZX-6R 636. …

KTM's Super Duke lacked control and showed signs of rust, but with a not unfriendly price and great guttural sounds, Fast Bikes were a little more forgiving, especially once they realised the …

You might find the Speed Triple R a tad stiff and somewhat lacking in aggro, but Fast Bikes found it to be a superb performer for the price thanks to its fantastic motor, fuelling, stunt abilities …

Sports Bike; 675 cc; 50-100 kW /~ 68-136 HP; Number of Cylinders: 3; ABS

The shifter that comes as stock on the Triumph Daytona 675R lacks the sophistication of some other systems, and could have been modified here, but wasn't. The only real mod that was made was …

Sports Bike; Over 100 kW /~ 136 HP ; Number of Cylinders: 4; No ABS as standard

It lacks the build quality of more recent offerings and it looks exactly like a 600, but that aside, this a simply brilliant machine that oozes character and usability. Fast Bikes praised its …

Fast Bikes were quite impressed with the EJC-modified 690 Duke, saying that it's the perfect step between a 125 and a 600 and that it's simply ideal for novices to learn braking, cornering …

Despite KTM's 1190 RC8 R being an excellent ride overall, reviewers at Fast Bikes found it too sluggish to rank it among the top contenders here, complaining also about its lack of control and …

It's definitely not one for unexperienced riders, and some rivals such as Triumph's Street Triple and Speed are smoother and more refined, but MV's Agusta Brutale 800 is loads of fun …
