Unfortunately for the GSX-R1000, being a great machine is no longer enough to stand out from the crowd, and while Fast Bikes admit that it's a fabulous offering in and of itself, comfortable, …

The UK's roads are not exactly suited to the MV Agusta F4, which would be more at home on a smooth track rather than over the bumps. This bike can be hard work, and the fuelling is not great, …

The 2005 Yamaha YZF-R6 looks a bit dated, but it offers a good ride, both on the track and on the road. It is a balanced bike with an impressive midrange, and Fast Bikes say that the great …
