Fast Bikes India - December 2020

في هذه القضية

Ultimate Sportsbike 2020: It’s the last issue of 2020 but the pandemic hasn’t been so bad for the sports bike fraternity. We’ve seen the genius of Honda’s all-new Fireblade, Ducati’s baby Panigale V2 and Triumph’s final super sport hurrah in the form of the brilliant Daytona 765 Moto 2 joining the regulars. The veterans too received their own batch of updates starting with our favourite – the Aprilia RSV4 1100 factory with its gen-2 Ohlins, Ducati’s ferocious Panigale V4 with its own set of wings to keep it on the ground and several homologation specials. A couple of stalwarts remain unchanged but still deserve a place in this year’s ultimate showdown and that list includes the Suzuki GSX-R 1000R and Kawasaki ZX-10RR and of course the Yamaha R1M. Last year’s winner – the BMW S 1000 RR remains largely unchanged but why fix what ain’t broke, right?
The ensemble includes nine of the best superbikes that you can buy today and we have tested them on road – everything from a smooth road to bumpy farm tracks, motorways and high streets even, for comfort and usability. In the second part we take them to Cadwell Park circuit in the UK to test their agility, stability, feel, tech and brakes because these are the things that you’d talk about at the coffee shop. And we have also tested the bikes on the dyno and the scales. That’s not all, we have also data-logged everything collating 0-160kmph timings and 160-0 deceleration times to throw some science into the test. It’s the ultimate test of the ultimate bikes on road, track, dyno and scales. It’s the Ultimate Sportsbike Test 2020 and there can be only one winner.
