When we talk about Triumph Motorcycles, the mighty Rocket 3 Storm, the Tiger ADV family, and the gorgeous, classic-vibing Bonneville lineup stand out profoundly. But one motorcycle in the Triumph line-up has the makings of being the G.O.A.T. among powerful mid-capacity naked bikes. This performance roadster has been refined over all these years and now stands as a "perfect" middleweight.

Like all of us, UK-based TTS Performance was pretty hurt by the mundanely upgraded third-gen Hyabausa. So the shop took it upon themselves to create the Busa that Suzuki didn't build. The close-to-370-horsepower SuperBusa is a Hayabusa dialed up to 12. This monster Busa has already dominated the drag strip with easy sub-10-second quarter-mile runs without breaking a sweat. But TTS wanted more accolades. So the shop decided to pit its prized possession against a proper race bike in a drag race.

Cruiser motorcycles are known for their distinctive character and drama. Thanks to their low-slung stance, they are also quite accessible, with a low seat height. As such, these are mostly famed for lazily munching miles. But what if we told you that there is a cruiser bike that transcends beyond its "definition" to be a peppy urban runabout, a relatively fast highway cruiser, can be specced to be anything between a barebone cruiser to a loaded touring-ready bagger?

Yamaha might have discontinued the radical Niken GT from America, but this three-wheeled motorcycle is still selling across the pond. We are also confident about its future because a bunch of new patents have been filed in Europe, and they emphasize the Niken GT is getting smarter than ever. Almost all patents focus on the complex leaning multi-wheel setup. However, an interesting filing also mentions the possible utilization of Yamaha's updated multi-wheel setup on a vehicle beyond a motorcycle.

Electric motorcycles have made tremendous strides over the last decade. Today, impressive offerings are finally overcoming their biggest hurdle: an abysmal riding range. We have seen many electric motorcycles "promise" over 200 miles of riding range, but most sadly remain on paper. However, one radical 200+ mile electric motorcycle has finally materialized into a drool-worthy production bike.

Touring bikes are quite diverse in the rest of the world, with ADVs and even sports bike-derived machines making their mark. While America has also jumped onto this bandwagon with the H-D Pan America 1250 lineup, the majority of "touring bikes" are still defined by low-slung, comfy, and uber-luxurious heavyweights. These are essentially land yachts powered by torquey big twins and weigh in excess of 800 pounds.

Harley-Davidson does a good job of making us crave nostalgic motorcycles, especially with its Softail lineup. On the flipside, the new liquid-cooled V-twin cruisers also cater to those wanting to experience a "modern" Harley. With the extensive list of updates the Harley-Davidson bikes got in 2025, many motorcycles should be bought new. But at the same time, there are offerings that have remained unchanged or barely tweaked over the last few years.
