Rider Magazine April 2016 Back Issue

The cover of the new April 2016 issue of Rider magazine says it all: Triumph has taken years of experience creating classic motorcycles and poured it into building a better Bonneville. The first one is the 2016 Street Twin, which we give a full review in this issue. Triumph also launched its brawnier 2016 Speed Triple R in Europe and Rider had a chance to put it through its paces as well. The venerable Suzuki Bandit 1250S returns for 2016 with a mild facelift, so we gave it a long-distance test to see how this versatile sport-touring machine behaves in the real world. Our touring stories in April take readers from the Land of Enchantment in sublime New Mexico to exotic Middle Earth in Ecuador and back to the stunning Canadian Rockies along the Icefields Parkway. There’s plenty to learn from this month’s Tips, Tricks & Answers about your bike’s brakes and how to deal with gravel on the road, and our Gearlab section is packed with useful reviews and new products. Rider’s regular columnists even remembered where to send their latest ramblings from the road and the saddle. Enjoy the issue!
