Honda Activa 125 (2026) ReviewScooters may not be the first thing that comes to mind when considering a motorcycle as a form of transport, but they have a place. Japanese manufacturers have been pumping out these nifty little city hoppers for decades, and king amongst them is Honda. We test the spritely Activa 125.

BMW R1300 RT (2026) Review

Unlike standard bikes, they prioritise ergonomics, weather protection, and luxury while still preserving their sporty roots, allowing riders to carve a canyon between long stretches of open road.
