There are three sports-tourers tested in this issue, which I would normally try to avoid. Australian Road Rider readers are a diverse bunch and I like to try to offer bikes from different categories in each issue, but sometimes there are not a lot of options.
This time, however, is different: each of the bikes featured is a variant on a different model from within each manufacturer’s range and they are so different from each other I believe you’ll enjoy each review. Indeed, if you’re in the market for a sports-tourer, I don’t think you’ll have trouble choosing between the bikes.
