 :lol I've got that back issue in my collection and I can confirm that it's not your bike featured this time, but it is a red one ;).

It's one of Andy Bolas' many bikes. Rave review :).

Amazingly (!), there's also a four page feature in Practical Sportsbikes this month.
Could this all be just an amazing coincidence or are these bike journos getting lazier?

I'm surprised that motorcycle mag's survived the dawn of the internet. Early fast bikes was worth the cover price as it actually had well written articles rather than 50% advertisement 35% shiny pictures and 15% (thats being generous) editorial

Talking of Fastbikes, did anything become of project Lionheart?

Is that the October or November issue?

A lot of the bike a magazines share offices...


For example, Ride, Bike and Practical Sportsbikes all have the same office in Peterborough. You'll be surprised what you'll find crosses over.
