Not a bad read I guess, but it's a seriously flawed premise.
It's not about the 50 objectively best bikes at anything - just 50 bikes that the judges liked to ride. :roll:

The poms (and a token European in this case) often seem to come up with odd crap like this.
Maybe something to do with the stress of riding under the constant threat - and the frequent reality - of cold, drenching downpours.
:lol: :lol:

It can't be that old, the Hornet at #22 is the same as mine, so it's from 2006 or a 2007, which makes the article from probably late '05 early '06? I had the impression they were talking about the old model Z750 as well.

Got the magazine right here in my hand. BIKE from September 2005. Third from the top in the pile in my shitter.

Great article, too.
