Electric motorcycles have always come with some obvious compromises. Limited range, longer charging times, and for many riders, they've simply never made much sense.

So when Honda invited me to spend some time with the new WN7, I expected to come away with the same conclusion. Instead, I found myself asking a different question.

Maybe we've been judging electric motorcycles by the wrong criteria.

In this review, I look beyond the headline figures and marketing claims to explore what the Honda WN7 is actually like to ride, who it makes sense for, and whether electric motorcycles are finally ready for the real world.

As always, this isn't a spec sheet walkaround. It's an honest road test and my genuine thoughts after spending time with the bike.

If you've already made up your mind about electric motorcycles… it might just be time to think again.

Have we forgotten the traditional sports tourer?

For years, adventure bikes have dominated the market, offering comfort, practicality and the promise of going anywhere. But for riders who spend almost all of their time on tarmac, have we overlooked what made traditional sports tourers so good in the first place?

After several hundred miles on BMW's R1300RS, I found myself asking exactly that question.

In this review, I take a closer look at the comfort, handling, practicality and real-world touring ability of BMW's latest boxer-powered sports tourer, and whether it might actually be the better choice for many riders than a modern adventure bike.

This isn't a specification review. It's about the riding experience, and whether the traditional sports tourer still has a place in today's motorcycle world.

Honda CB1000F review on UK roads. Can Honda's modern interpretation of the legendary CB750F and CB900F deliver more than just nostalgia?

The Honda CB1000F isn't just another retro motorcycle. It's Honda's modern interpretation of two legendary machines that became icons on both the road and the racetrack.

But is this simply a nostalgic styling exercise, or has Honda genuinely captured the character that made the originals so special?

In this full review, I take one of the first Honda CB1000Fs onto UK roads, looking at the styling, heritage, features and, most importantly, what it's actually like to ride. After all, specifications only tell part of the story. Character is what really matters.

If you're considering the Honda CB1000F, or simply love classic Honda motorcycles, I hope you enjoy the review.

The Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 has become one of the most popular modern café racers on the market, but what happens when you hand one over to the team at Sold Out Motorcycles?

In this video, I take a closer look at this custom-built Continental GT 650, exploring the modifications, design choices and attention to detail that set it apart from the standard machine. More importantly, I head out on the road to find out whether those changes improve the riding experience or simply change the look.

Featuring plenty of riding footage, including stunning 360° b-roll, this is a real-world ride review of a very special Royal Enfield.

What do you think of the build? Let me know in the comments below.

Summer motorcycle jackets can easily cost £300, £400 or more, but does spending extra money actually get you a better riding experience?

In this review, I take a look at the RST S-1 Mesh D3O Jacket, a lightweight textile jacket designed for warm-weather riding. With large mesh panels, D3O armour, a removable SinAqua waterproof thermal liner and a price tag of just £149, it promises a lot for the money.

I've been wearing it on the road to find out whether this budget-friendly option is all most riders really need.

If you're looking for a comfortable motorcycle jacket for summer riding, touring, commuting or everyday use, hopefully this review will help you decide if the RST S-1 deserves a place in your riding gear collection.

The Klim GT-1 Expedition is the latest modular helmet from Klim, designed from the ground up for touring riders who want the convenience of a flip-front helmet without sacrificing the comfort, weight and refinement of a traditional full-face.

After riding in the GT-1 for the last month or so, I share my first impressions, covering everything from weight, comfort and ventilation to noise levels, visor performance and overall practicality on the road.

The GT-1 takes a slightly different approach to many modular helmets. So has Klim made the right design choices, and does that approach work in the real world?

Hard luggage or soft luggage? It's one of the biggest decisions adventure and touring riders face, and there's no shortage of opinions on which is best.

In this video, I take a look at the real-world pros and cons of both systems, covering everything from security to weight, durability, convenience and cost.

Using the Givi Trekker hard panniers and Givi Canyon soft luggage as examples, I'll explain where each system excels, where they fall short, and which type of rider they're best suited to.

Whether you're planning your first motorcycle tour, preparing for an adventure riding trip, or simply trying to decide which luggage system to buy, hopefully this video will help you make the right choice for your riding.

I first laid my hands on the ZeroFit IceSkin at last year's ABR Festival and was genuinely amazed. Despite being displayed in a hot gazebo, the fabric actually felt cold in my hands.

Naturally, I thought it might be a gimmick. So I bought one and spent the last year wearing it on tours, hot summer rides and in everyday use to find out whether it really works.

A year down the line, I take a look at the ZeroFit IceSkin base layer, including how the cooling technology works, comfort, fit, durability, moisture management and whether it's worth a place in your riding kit.

After a recent encounter with a car left the stock handguard on my Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports in pieces, I decided it was time to do what I should have done ages ago and fit a set of Barkbusters. In this video, I take you through the installation process, share my first impressions on the road, and explain why Barkbusters have become one of the most popular upgrades among adventure riders.

I also take a look at the Storm and Blizzard cover options, designed to offer additional weather protection for riders tackling colder conditions and longer tours. Whether you're riding a Honda Africa Twin, Yamaha Ténéré 700, BMW GS, Triumph Tiger, or any other adventure bike, Barkbusters are often one of the first modifications riders recommend. After spending some time with them, I can see why.
