ROAD FeAtuResDUCATI DIAVEL – 20The devil made Ducati do it – build a brutish high horsepower custom to take on the best from the US, Great Britain and Japan.

TEST: ROAD KING VS FAT BOY – 25In which Big Dave and The Ed compare, contrast and generally wax lyrical about the FLHR Road King and FLSTF Fat Boy, two of Harley-Davidson’s most endearing and appealing models.

TEST: HYOSUNG GT650R EFI – 33Time was when price was the key factor in any Hyosung purchasing decision. These days what a bike like the new GT650R EFi costs is just one of the factors in its favour.

FEATURE: BURT MUNRO – 44This time round the weather gods smiled on the Burt Munro Challenge. Big Dave has the story.

RALLY: BOTTLED LIGHTNING – 68Reefton’s Bottled Lightning Rally is one of the country’s best. Racing Dave explains why.

DIRt FeAtuResBEN TOwNLEYThe rollercoaster career of Ben Townley continued its ups and downs last November with a sudden stomach-lurching dip. But the Taupo man is determined to bounce back yet again. Andy McGechan reports.

JOSH COppINSHe’s had 15 years of hard graft on the motocross Grand Prix circuit, but New Zealand’s Josh Coppins is still not quite ready for the slippers, pipe and rocking chair on the front porch of his sun-baked Motueka home.

TEST: HUSABERG FE390 – 98It’s the Austrians rather than the Swedes who are calling the tune these days but there’s still a Nordic edge to Husaberg’s distinctive FE models as Ollie S found when he threw a leg over the latest 390 model.

LONG TERMER: YAMAHA YZ450F – 105Yamaha nailed the introduction of its revolutionary YZ450F in 2010. And now Dirt Ed Ollie S. has just taken delivery of the first of the 2011 models.

SUMMERCROSS – 19A weather bomb hit the Bay of Plenty in late December but it wasn’t enough to defuse the traditional post-Christmas motocross explosion that is the Edgecumbe Supervalue Supermarket Summercross.

SpEEDwAY: GETTING STARTED – 124For a while there Speedway was the branch of the sport Kiwis excelled at. Todd S. looks at the discipline and reckons there’s life left in it yet.

ADVENTURE: pUREORA RIDE – 129What better way to ‘test’ Yamaha’s new XTZ 1200 Super Tènèrè than Mike Britton’s annual Yamaha-backed Pureora Adventure Ride.

YAMAHA TTR230 VS HONDA CRF230F – 133Last month we reviewed a trio of Junior MX bikes. This month KR Kids’ hired guns James Mancer and Liam Draper tackle the 230cc trail bikes from Yamaha and Honda.

It reduces motorcycle shake and it allows for improved control. Available for most Japanese Mx bikes.

1 PiT Posse biLLeT ThroTTLe Tubes $43 www.motoxparts.co.nz or 09 4822100

Pilot Road 2- the great all-rounder. The tyre chosen by discerning Kiwi touring riders who want traction and long life. The ideal balance - Independent tests confirm the Pilot Road 2 offers better wet grip and longer tread life than any of its

competitors. How did Michelin incorporate these two contradictory traits in one tyre? MotoGP-derived 2CT technology makes it possible, using two distinct rubber com-pounds to achieve what was once thought Impossible. 2CT tyres incorporate two distinct rubber types: a softer compound on the tread shoulders, and a harder, more durable compound in the centre of the tyre. 2CT makes it possible to fine-tune the tyre’s performance to a particular applica-tion. The harder compound in the centre of the tread improves durability (Pilot Road 2) and enhances acceleration and braking per-formance. The softer rubber on the tread shoulders maximizes cornering grip and safety. Available in all popular sizes.
