TEST: YAMAHA XJ6N – 29 Yamaha’s new XJ6 Diversion first graced our pages (in three-quarter fairing-equipped S guise) just over a year ago. Now it’s time for us to report on the N (for naked) version. Ollie S. has the story. TEST: T-BIRD TWINS – 34 With SE touring and big-bore engine kit options Triumph has effectively doubled the number of different Thunderbird models available here. Big Dave, the Ed and have been sampling Triumph NZ’s demonstrators and have this to say. QUICK SPIN: DUCATI 696 & 848 – 38 After displaying their 2010 models at the recent Speedshow, Ducati importer NFL Importers Pty Ltd invited local journos to sample the bikes as a prospective buyer might - via a test ride of no more than two hour’s duration. Michael Esdaile has the story. RIDDEN: BMW R 1200 GS – 41 It was an offer Big Dave couldn’t refuse – convivial riding company AND the latest DOHC/4-valve-per-cylinder R 1200 GS to ride.

LAUNCH: SUZUKI RM-Z/RM RANGE – 97 A mix of good location, good weather and great product made Suzuki NZ’s recent 2011 RM-Z/RM model range launch at Taupo a memorable affair.
