How do you improve something that’s already as good as the Speed Triple? Well, there were a few issues with the Nissin radial brakes; the seat wasn’t comfy enough for pillions so Triumph justified a re-launch for its superstar.

| Moto Guzzi | 2008 Moto Guzzi V7 Classic – V7 in the Italian Alps

Moto Guzzi has pulled another classic model name out of its hat. The V7 Classic is a 70’s inspired roadster that means the same to Moto Guzzi as the Bonnie does to Triumph. I had a very pleasant acquaintance with the small 750 in the Italian Alps.

Pick the best from the best, machine it and bolt it together by hand and voila you have a Bimota. The DB7 oozes of exclusivity from the design to the choice of the 160hp Ducati Testastretta 1098 engine. I got the chance to ride Bimota’s first superbike since the SB8R on Misano.

DB6R from Bimota is like strawberries and double cream for the senses. Delirio is tighter than glue and more obedient than a Chinese beurocrat. Purely made for fun and fun only!

Since 2004 Benelli have been run at a loss of several million Euros. With the TNT 899, Benelli hopes to break it even in 2008. The TNT 899 is a dream naked and during our test a sweet dream. Going up the box, the new 899 is ferocious!

In 2008 the R1 turns 10 years! In 1998 the 150 horsepower R1 was nothing less than revolution.

| | Impressions | Test CR&S Vun: what else?
    26 votes 05/24/2008 at 10:55:
On May 19 2008, CR&S organized the first CR&S Track Day at the Ecuyers track (Beuvarde, France). After 6 hours in a ferry boat and another 8 hours on French motorways and their innumerable speed radars, I finally reached the almost brand new Ecuyers track. Cloudy and cold weather, but no rain. I'm not exactly in a fresh condition, but seeing the many Vuns (differents technical configurations and paints schemes) makes me happy.
