Welcome to Robb Report MotorCycling! In our June/July issue we enjoy a wide range of motorcycling disciplines. Three touring Triumph triples--the Rocket III, Sprint ST and Tiger 1050--are compared and contrasted by Jeff Buchanan. We do the same with two hyper-exclusive Ducatis--the Desmosedici RR and 1098R--as RR-owner Kaming Ko and Editorial Director Arthur Coldwells ride them at their limits at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in Pahrump, NV. Dual sport and supermoto riding are explored by Senior Editor Don Williams on the new Yamaha WR250X and WR250R--which pack quite a bit of fun into two 250cc packages. Custom fans will enjoy our road test of the the Harley-Davidson CVO Screamin' Eagle Dyna by Basem Wasef, while David Morris explores the radical Star-powered BMS Choppers Nehmesis. Coldwells gets up to speed again, track-testing the incredible new Honda CBR1000RR and the faster-than-ever Suzuki Hayabusa. Mike Schulte profiles John Ethell, the man behind Jett Tuning; and you won't want to miss the retro Yamaha SR500 street-tracker created by Russ Somers of Simpson Performance Products. Plus, we night-test the new Kuryakyn Xsighting Lighting HID headlight.
