Motorcycle Sport & Leisure

Nov 01 2023
Magazine

Motorcycle Sport & Leisure is a monthly 116 page full colour magazine covering all aspects of modern leisure bike riding. New bike reviews, product news and events add to the unique mix of touring features and long term road tests.

What’s in a name? • A motorcycle is just a machine made for transportation, so it’s peculiar that some bikes are given names rather than model numbers

Motorcycle Sport & Leisure

We three twins • BMW revamps upper-middleweight parallel twin adventure bikes

2024 Royal Enfield Bullet 350

KTM updates its mini-Dukes • Austria’s petite peers get new engines, chassis and equipment for 2024

Italian mini-stallion 2024 Aprilia RS457

Tiger 1200 preload software update

Maeving RM1S

Harley updates top-end tourers

MV Agusta Assen edition Brutale

The Horseman Cometh • Having ridden over six whole hours for the privilege, Mossy was hoping the ride on Fantic’s new Caballero 700 Scrambler around deepest Kent was going to be worth the effort

Products

GlobeBusters 20th Anniversary Trans-Americas Ride • For the anniversary ride, Julia and Kevin Sanders are joined by Kevin’s son, Rhys Lawrey (himself a record-breaking rider) as tour manager. We caught up with him during a planned stopover in Las Vegas, while the bikes were being serviced and treated to a fresh set of tyres

Two job hero • There’s a whole host of adventure bike riders, including Mossy, who want to sample some lighter off-road riding as well as all other normal road duties. Dunlop realised this, and introduced the new Trailmax Raid tyre to suit

Bemoaning the Technology Boom • Many will say that the writing is on the wall. And that electric vehicles, or alternative energy ones, are decidedly the future. Keith takes a look at what may potentially happen to rider skills…

Proprietary knowledge? • Typically, when I get a reader’s letter calling for a response, Dave will forward that letter to me and I’ll shoot back an answer by return email. Peter Carroll’s letter in MSL 756 slipped through the cracks somehow, so here’s my response, perhaps more than Peter expected.

A race bike like no other • Indian Motorcycles celebrates its King of the Baggers championship by producing a limited-edition copy of its winning bike. This £90,000 machine is an exact copy of the 2022 winning bike

BACK IN THE DAY... • MSL columnist Maynard Hershon picks his favourite articles from the long history of this magazine

Letters

Legal Eagle • As a motorcyclist, where do you stand with legal issues? Your questions answered.

Honda DCT • While the Dual Clutch Transmission has been in Honda’s line-up since 2010, when it was first fitted to the VFR1200F, the concept has actually been around for far longer

Harley-Davidson 120th anniversary Festival • If you’ve ever wondered why Harley-Davidson’s massive European anniversary celebrations are never held here in Blighty, what I’m about to tell you might give you an answer

Tell us about your ride! • Share your travel story, and bag a free mag subscription

The Camera Ride Ulm, where the camera was born • David made it to Ulm, where his camera was manufactured. Now time for more history!

North Wales loop • It’s easy to stay with popular routes and roads, but often the best road is the one less travelled

The music of motorcycles • Music makes the wheels go round and, for many, is the soundtrack to their ride…

Source to Sea • Much like mountains need to be climbed, so rivers need to be followed…

Too many years in the planning • Inspiration and ideas for a motorcycle trip can come from many things – friends’ experiences; magazine features; television programmes; or even previous trips,...
