Australian Road Rider Magazine Issue#105 - August 2014 Edizione posteriore

Just you, the road and the bike. That’s what BMW is offering in the decidedly low-tech and definitely cool R nineT roadster. We test it in this issue of Australian Road Rider, along with Triumph’s super-comfortable long-distance cruiser, the 1700cc Thunderbird LT, and Harley-Davidson’s retro-tech tourer with the lot, the Ultra Limited. We also delve into the world of Australia’s exotic bike market and come back to earth for a test of the wicked, learner-legal KTM 390 Duke. We bring you write-ups on four top tyres, too! Once you’re through all that, come touring with us on an almost secret road in Victoria with more corners than you can count, out to Dad & Dave country in Queensland, way up north for the HOG Rally and all the way over to Vietnam for a very unexpected treat. Plus you’ll enjoy our columnists, news and all the rest of the fun in your monthly does of road riding.
