Triumph Speed 400: practicality, fun and darn good looks.
Просмотров 4,4 тыс.7 часов назад
Everyone nowadays is making a 400cc road motorcycle and Triumph does not want to get left behind. And they are going to do it the unmistakable Triumph way.
This episode pays tribute to the professional (and not so professional) life of Mat Durrans.
Просмотров 13 тыс.12 часов назад
We are overwhelmed by the messages of condolences from our RUclips community. Without you, Mat's passion for motorbikes would have been just that, but it is this community that drove him to excel professionally, and to continue working during his illness. Thank you to each and everyone for your messages. Jaxx (his wife), and Donovan.
Rest in peace - Mat Durrans (1966 - 2024)

It is with great sadness t hat we share this post. Mat passed away on the 1st of June after his year long battle with brain cancer. To each of our RUclips community that sent messages of support during this time, it meant a lot to Mat and me. He fought until the bitter end, and was making plans to ride his bike this summer in the Alps. May he ride forever more!

For 2024, Triumph has updated its 900 adventure machine giving it more power, more handling, more electronics, more ergonomics and more everything. The last 900 Tiger was very good. Imagine one with even more everything.
Owning a Ducati is a privilege. An expensive privilege but a privilege nonetheless.

Honda Hornet 750 Road Trip to Nampo

In South Africa, naked bikes are akin to the devil when uttered together with the word “travel” and yet these machines are such fun in all other circumstances. But how bad at distance travelling are they really? Donovan Fourie takes a Honda Hornet 750 from his home near Hartbeespoort to the massive Nampo Agricultural Show in the dead straight Free State Province to see how this naked bike holds...

    I have been riding this bike for two weeks now and I absolutely love it. It certainly has alot of low down torque for a 400cc. Those issues of the speedo are minimal. I think mine has a rev limiter at 8000rpm because it's still new.

    Had mine delivered in April & finally had its first service. I quite like the power delivery though it could do with a higher gearing as gearing is a bit low given how well the torque is delivered. Lots of windblast above 60mph hopefully the small screen when available will help and it's giving 76mpg according to the dash read out and improving.

    Decluttering IS a word, or it is now anyway! When I'm riding a bike that's ALL I'm doing, when I'm scuba diving that's ALL I'm doing! That's the beauty of demanding, exhilarating and somewhat hazardous pursuits! We just have to keep the socialist manipulative politicians at bay who try to control everything we do in the name of "Public Safety" and for "Your Own Good"!
