MOTORCYCLE ENTHUSIASTS NOW HAVE AN opportunity to learn about and participate in the exhilarating sport of flat-track racing thanks to the innovative training programme known as the Royal Enfield Flat Track School. This school, established by Royal Enfield, offers opportunities at all skill levels to ride on a flat track that has been specially constructed while also receiving training from qualified coaches. The Royal Enfield Flat Track School is a great method for riders to refine their abilities, test their limitations, and experience the thrill of flat-track racing since it places a strong emphasis on safety, technique, and fun.
One of the world's fastest-growing motorsports, flat tracking is a fun and approachable style of motorcycle riding and Royal Enfield are actively involved in it on all fronts. It does not necessitate the cost of a paved track; therefore, at the most fundamental level, if you have a flat piece of land, you can have a track. Furthermore, it is quite beneficial for improving as a rider. Most MotoGP racers first train themselves on flat tracks to improve their handling and this is equally applicable to and beneficial to the average rider as it is to the professional racer.

IT'S ALL ABOUT REAR GRIP
Ducati dominated MotoGP like never before last season and will probably do the same in 2025 because Aprilia, KTM, Honda, and Yamaha cannot make MotoGP's latest rear slick work
Hero Mavrick 440
SINCE IT CAME INTO my clutches, I have been guarding the Mavrick 440's keys rather jealously. I loathe to even think of returning it, though that is inevitable some time in the future.
It is Good to be different
When it comes to choosing a Husqvarna, you are spoilt for choice these days thanks to the KTM-owned manufacturer's habit of providing not just one but two variants of each new model. Should you opt for a single-cylinder 125 or 401 or this, the all-new twin-cylinder 801, you get a brace of options: Vitpilen or Svartpilen. Essentially the same bike but in different clothes and with a subtly different attitude to life. It is a proven recipe that has served Husqvarna well for the last 10 years

Ticks All the Boxes
It is probably not too contentious to say that Triumph, the “new” Triumph, the one that re-invented the marque in 1983 and grew into one of British engineering’s great modern success stories, do retros rather well. With a large back catalogue of iconic “old” Triumphs to reinvent, the Hinckley factory has made a habit of plucking some of the most evocative model names from the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, carefully updating their styling without offending the nostalgia glands, injecting very modern performance and road manners, and then watching them sail out of showrooms. But few, we suggest, have been done as well as this
Bagnaia Wins the Battle; Martin Wins the War
Despite Bagnaia's best efforts, Martin hung on to third place on Sunday to seal the deal and take home the champion's trophy at the conclusion of a long 2024 season
