Motorcycle we most want to ride in 2011

Last year's major motorshow shows saw the release of a number of new models. Which ones really get the juices flowing?

Mark Fattore
Three standouts for me: Ducati Diavel, the MV Agusta F3 and Triumph Tiger 800XC. The former for what should be a stirring mix of brawn and performance, the MV because it's adding a fresh dimension to the Supersport ranks, and the 800XC because I love adventure bikes and also Triumph's superb three-cylinder powerplants.

Triumph’s Tiger 800XC – is this the true dual-purpose Trumpet we’ve been waiting for? Also Kawasaki’s ZX-10R and Ducati’s Diavel.

Feann Torr
It's a coin toss between two bikes, but the 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R wins out. Expected to be the most powerful sports bike in its capacity class, the new Ninja is shaping up to be a real challenger, and with a number of electronic aids designed to improve your lap times it may even reshape the category.
