You don’t typically associate Ducati with an off-road motorcycle. That’s because the Bologna-based bikemaker hasn't produced one since 1974, which was the R/T.

The Deso450 MX isn't just a lifestyle scrambler designed to be flaunted on a quick jaunt to the cafe. It's the real thing: a full-whack motocrosser that's incredibly lightweight, and made essentially for competition use.

BYD has its eyes set on competing with luxury German carmakers like BMW and Mercedes, in addition to bolstering its presence outside of Asia.

Much of that appeal lies in the mechanical simplicity of Royal Enfield machines. The company’s parallel-twin platform has been lauded across the globe for producing some of the most charming modern-retro bikes that are not only stylish but easy to work on.

That’s rather comforting, considering most manufacturers resort to providing WLTP or estimated figures. This way, if you do consider getting a Verge model, you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Dirt Freak… with a name like that, you ought to either produce some solid, purpose-built off-road motorcycles… or an inexpensive vacuum cleaner. I’m glad to say it’s the former, in the shape of an electric moto from Japan dubbed the GE-N3. Dirt Freak is not a proper bikemaker as such, it's more of an aftermarket parts builder of off-road motorcycles. After around two years of development, the first electric moped out of the company's stable is making its way to the public.
