The MV Agusta F4CC might at first look to be something along the lines of Ducati’s endless, blinged-up “S” versions that slap on some carbon, slightly up-spec suspension, and call it a day. But the F4 “Claudio Castiglioni” is far from a paint-and-tape special edition. It is, without question, the ultimate incarnation of the first-generation…
Although forgotten now, Gilera was one a famous manufacturer of serious racing hardware, and this “Nuovo” Saturno was an attempt to revitalize the marque in the late 1980’s. Now owed by Piaggio, Gilera was originally founded in 1909 and had a long history of high-performance motorcycles. These sportbikes were often based around big singles, sort…
Colin Edwards didn’t ride an RSV in World Superbike, but he did ride for Aprilia Cube in Moto GP, and this edition of the talented v-twin Aprilia was inspired by their unfortunately troubled GP efforts. The Mille was designed to compete in races and in the showroom against, and grab a slice of Ducati’s v-twin…
1995 Ducati 916 on eBay We all remember the first time we saw one.. in print, in person, online… The Ducati 916 made us all stop and stare. It made us all think that maybe form is more important than function. I mean, if it looks this good, who even cares how it rides, right? …

They’re the kind of motorcycle that people buy as investments or just to admire, then sell without putting many miles on them. And it’s easy to see why: they’re gorgeous but uncomfortable, uncompromising, and basically terrifying. Most reviews talk about the fact that…
Most small displacement sportbikes look like small-displacement sportbikes, but Aprilia really knows how to make lust-worthy entry-level machines. While their RS250 is certainly no learner bike, this one definitely is: you won’t be going very fast on an RS125, but you will look good doing it… Manufactured between 1992 and 2012, the RS125 was a…
