FEATURES

GSX-R vs ST3

Logically, you can’t ride much further

than Lands End so we sent Simon to Cornwall on

a Ducati ST3 and a Suzuki GSX-R1000 to compare

how each bike takes its toll on the body.

SPORT

TOURERS

Devon knows how they make

them so good. On the hottest

week of the year the ofﬁ ce

decamped to the North Devon

coast for a few days out beside the

seaside. And what better bikes to

relax on? The perennial sports tourer

winner, the Honda VFR800 takes on

the Ducati ST3 and two new bikes

for 2005, the revised Triumph Sprint

ST and the BMW R1200ST. Cream tea

anyone?

GRIPPING STUFF

Having won the last 13 blue riband

titles, Michelin seem to have cracked the art

of making tyres for 500cc and MotoGP bikes.

Kenny travels to meet Bibendum and ask the fat

Frenchman just how he does it. What do you mean

he’s not a real person?

CORSARO

RETURN OF THE PIRATE KING

Big Al, more Captain Birdseye than Captain Blackbeard,

travels to Italy with a yo ho ho and a bottle of rum to

test the new Moto Morini Corsaro (that’s Italian for

Corsair or pirate – hence the seafaring connotations ye

landlubbers).

RM-Z450 FIRST RIDE

Fancy Nicky Hayden’s RC211V or Valentino

Rossi’s M1? Well you can’t have one. If you change your

sport, however, you can get close to full on GP machinery

– as JP ﬁ nds out while testing Suzuki’s new RM-Z450

(which won its ﬁ rst MX1 race just as we went to print).
