  Review: Suzuki DL650 V-Strom 2017 (productReview)
  Yet, despite its relatively modest 650cc engine, it copes with pillion duties and panniers without breaking a sweat. And not only that, it's also affordable with prices starting at a little over £7000. The V-Twin engine isn’t powerful enough to set the road ablaze, with a respectable 71PS at 8800rpm. But peak torque of 62Nm comes in at 6500rpm and there’s still plenty of punch available at even lower engine speeds.

  Review: Ducati SuperSport 2017 (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.616298811545" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/401fc9abc93940aaa603e5d893ac877a" /> Peak power might not look impressive, next to latest crop of 200PS superbikes, but on the road the SuperSport is more than enough. Passing traffic is effortless and there’s enough drama in the power delivery and exhaust note to make riding a genuinely exhilarating experience - plus there are beautifully set up Brembo brakes that are strong and communicative.

  Review: Honda Versatool (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/01704a48c1d3451badaf33c1c51a515c" /> The powerful 7000rpm motor features a two-part anti-vibration clutch block, which displaces tremors from the engine with a vibration absorber. The Versatool also has a six-splined transmission shaft, which maximises torque and drives lots of power to each tool you use.

  Review: Suzuki SV650 2017 (productReview)
  Just £5700. In the world of full-power, unrestricted category A motorcycles, that’s not very much money. In fact, it’s about the minimum you can spend – go any lower and you’re looking at A2-friendly, lower-power bikes. And yet here’s the Suzuki SV650 – a characterful, capable and fun-to-ride bike that’s just £5699.

  Review: Moto Guzzi V7 II 2016 (productReview)
  But it feels more substantial than many A2 machines, so would also suit a more experienced biker looking for something easy-going yet enjoyable. Being a Moto Guzzi, the V7 II is powered by a transverse-mounted V-twin – hence the two chunky cylinders that stick out from either side of the bike under the petrol tank. That arrangement is unusual and gives the V7 character – but not just in terms of style.

  Review: Sony PlayStation 4 Pro games console (productReview)
  Framerate is just as important – perhaps more so – when it comes to great looking games. The increased processing power of the Pro means that games can run more smoothly – the central processor is boosted by 25 per cent over the standard PS4 (now 2.1GHz) and the graphics processing capability has more than doubled. A common issue with console games that require lots of processing power is that the framerate will drop, causing the action to slow down or ‘judder’ – not ideal if, say, you’re trying to clear a goalmouth scramble in a crucial English League decider with Tyneside United on PES 2018.
