The editorial highlights rising bike prices countered by increased competition and Chinese manufacturers, enabling many new models below £10k. The content includes extensive new and used bike testing, summer gear mega-tests, and curated route ratings such as Cornwall coastal roads, Norfolk stretches, and Ace Yorkshire routes. It also promotes durable, ultimately waterproof Oxford AQUA Pro luggage built for modular carrying with MOLLE and D-ring attachments.","Honda Africa Twin: 10-year anniversary special  \n1200-mile trip shows it’s still the go-to adventure-tourer  \nAUGUST  \n2026 £5.70  \n8 JULY –  \n4 AUGUST  \nHERO XPULSE  \n200 £2799  \nNEW & USED: the best-value, best-riding bikes–tested by us  \nTRIUMPH TIGER  \nSPORT 660  \n£9295  \nHONDA CB1000  \nHORNET £9099  \nSummer gloves mega-test PLUS Warm-weather kit PLUS UK’s best kit bargains  \nGEAR RATED  \nCornwall’s must-ride coastal roads rated PLUS Norfolk’s bestrideout PLUS Ace Yorkshire routes  \nGREAT ROUTES  \nCFMOTO 1000MT-X  \n£8898  \nBMW F450GS: what you really need to know PLUS Ducati MultistradaV4 RS PLUS Owning a Ninja 1100SX  \nUSED BMW R1250GS  \n£9000  \nNEW BIKES TESTED  \nSCAN TO EXPLORE THE RANGE  \nPROFESSIONAL GRADE WATERPROOF LUGGAGE  \nULTIMATELY WATERPROOF  \nDURABLE 1000D PVC  \nFAST, SECURE, MODULAR ATTACHMENT  \nBuilding on the success of Oxford’s extensive AQUA range, AQUA PRO luggage delivers superior strength, durability and functionality in every aspect of its design.  \nCompletely waterproof and wipeable, a heavy-duty 1000D PVC  \ntarpaulin base is welded to a more supple, 500D PVC roll top closure.  \nWith multiple MOLLE, Hypalon and D-ring attachment points, the AQUA Pro bags offer many attachment options for additional luggage or accessories.
