The Japanese middleweight adventure bike is a genuine dual-purpose delight.. and it's knocked-up in an old moped factory in France.       P roper bike the Ténéré 700. It's one of those machines that's just 'right. From the brilliant balance of its chassis and perky performance of the 689cc parallel twin, to the luxuriously-damped suspension and flimsy build quality, Yamaha's middleweight adventure bike is reassuringly complete. Its off-road prowess doesn't detract from its tarmac skills, and road requirements don't impair its ability to romp along a Welsh mountain trail - and it's noticeably classier than Yamaha's other MT-07-derived models, too It's why the Ténéré blitzed our epic eight-bike adventure test in th November 2019 issue.          And, of course, the Yamaha has an attractive price. Despite all the quality and reliability you'd expect from a leading Japanese brand it's a sniff over £9000 on the road. While this means it's t

  IN THE PAST BMW WERE KNOWN TO MAKE only touring and adventure motorcycles with boxer twin-cylinder engines. In April 2008, BMW surprised the world when they showcased the very first litre-class super sport motorcycle, the S 1000 RR. The S1000RR set a new benchmark in the litre-class with its power, handling, and, most of all, the electronics At that time, BMW were the first to offer rider aids such as traction control even though they were not participating in MotoGP like most of the other litre-class superbike manufacturers. At the time of its launch, the S1000RR was the most powerful superbike and it took years for others to catch up. BMW have moved away from the asymmetrical design to a symmetrical one for the S1000RR of 2019. The reason for the asymmetrical design was that, at that time, the projector headlights were very heavy and, in order to save weight, they decided to fit one round headlight. Now that the new LED weigh almost nothing, they have fit

motorcycles which are quite different from them big American cruisers However, ever since the 1980s the Japanese big four have been serious in their meddling around in the cruiser territory and it is here that we were first introduced to the Kawasaki Vulcan. Starting in 1984 with a 750-cc and moving through a number of engine capacities along the way, even going up to 2,053 cc Today the Vulcan name is on three models: 900, 1700, and the one we shall talk about here, the 650-cc Vulcan S Design :  The Kawasaki Vulcan S reminds me a little of Harley-Davidson's V-Rod as far as the flow of the tank, with an all-new round-pipe perimeter frame. The motorcycle has a low, long, and meaty stance that looks all business. Aggressive business. Starting from the headlamp, the motorcycle's lines flow well across the modern-styled analogue tachometer and LCD display, the tank, and up to a comfortable wide seat that sits low. The passenger seat sits higher and
