YamahaFZ6

I got to test the new FZ600 t'other day - a combination of whining and being in that right State at the right time. Tagging along with ex-2Dub editor, now editor/publisher of Motorcycle Street and Strip magazine, Peter Jones, I got to ride the European model FZ6 in the quiet backwaters of Long Beach (I know, it's not a Jetski). The motor is a cammed R6, totally understressed so you know that it'll last forever. Unfortunately you won't be squeezing that full power R6 motor in there as the mounting points are a little different - maybe a cam could be squeezed in though? The compression has been bumped down to 12:2.1 from the R6's 12:4.1. Claimed power is around 98BHP at 12,000RPM and a torque value of 46.5 FT/LB at 10,000.

	Honda CBR600RR
	It has been designed as race bike first, and shares technology direct from Val Rossi's GP bike, the current MotoGP dominating RC211V. Take a look at the rear swinger - look familiar?

Ducati996 Biposto

Supermodels. Your girlfriend. Your wife. You're going to cut them some slack if they have a couple of bad habits. It's funny how the more beautiful they are the more you can forgive them for an indiscretion or three. Hey, if they cheat. They're outta there, but if they're a little possessive you can handle it. Spent a little more on your credit card than they promised? One big smile of those pearly whites and suddenly you can find it in your heart to forgive them.

ApriliaRSV Mille R

You know, I don't know why, but whenever I ride and review an Italian motorcycle, I cannot stop myself from using food as an analogy to describe how I feel about that particular two-wheeled vehicle. After wiping the tomato sauce spilt on my shirt, I think I've come up with the clear and distinctive difference from the two Italian flavors of the Aprilia Mille R verses the Ducati 996S, its obvious market target.

HondaCBR 600 f4i

Not many people get the chance to be present at the official showcase of Honda�s newest 600 at a beautiful racing facility like Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Me? I was born lucky. This was one of my first thoughts as 3 time world champion Freddie Spencer slipped by on the inside on a 2001 Honda F4i going in to turn 1. I was on an identical bike and on the same Michelin Pilot race tires as the great one himself. I had no excuses and I wasn�t really looking for one. However, this was a prestigious new Honda intro.
