Ultimate Sports Bike 2026<\/h2>\n

After a few years in hibernation, Ultimate Sports Bike is finally back\u2026 and we\u2019ve assembled a grid packed with some of the most ballistic litre bikes money can buy. This issue, we head to Cadwell Park and unleash six of the sharpest superbikes on the planet, pushing them to their limits in a flat-out fight for supremacy. From screaming inline-fours to thunderous V4s, exotic engineering to cutting-edge electronics, we\u2019ve got everything needed for an all-out showdown. The question is simple: which one deserves your hard-earned cash and a coveted spot in your garage? Time to find out.<\/p>\n

Yamaha R7 buyer\u2019s guide<\/h2>\n

Let\u2019s be honest, not everyone needs a 200bhp superbike capable of launching them into the next postcode. That\u2019s exactly why Yamaha\u2019s R7 has become such a hit. Blending sharp sports bike looks with real-world performance, manageable power and sensible running costs, it offers a refreshingly accessible route into life behind the screen. But is it all style and no substance, or one of the smartest middleweight buys on the market? We take a deep dive into Yamaha\u2019s inaugural R7 to uncover its strengths, weaknesses and everything you need to know before clicking \u2018buy-now\u2019.<\/p>\n

Next Level Norton<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s been a long time coming, but the Norton Manx R is finally here. Years of anticipation, endless speculation and plenty of lofty promises have all led to this moment. So, has Norton delivered the superbike we\u2019ve all been waiting for? We headed to Spain to put the Manx R through its paces on both road and track to find out if it\u2019s the real deal\u2026 or just another pretty face. <\/p>\n

2026\u2019s termers<\/h2>\n

Another issue, another fresh set of keys lands on the Fast Bikes desk. This month, it\u2019s Yamaha\u2019s hugely anticipated R9 that joins our long-term fleet. Packing proven CP3 punch, sharp sports bike styling and a promise to bridge the gap between road fun and trackday thrills.<\/p>\n
