Rider Magazine March 2018 Vorige editie

The March issue of Rider is probably our best of 2018 so far, with a slew of great road tests and touring stories for your reading enjoyment. The feature road test is of Ducati’s new, more powerful Multistrada 1260, which gets the larger engine from the X-Diavel for stronger midrange power and a number of other great refinements. We also have a full test of Kawasaki’s neo-retro Z900RS, and first rides on Ducati’s updated Monster 821 and the Triumph Bobber Black, which stops, handles and looks better that its predecessor. Clement Salvadori takes us on a journey around California on an Indian in search of power sources, and we also have a great story of one man’s Iron Butt conquest on a most unusual motorcycle. The March issue also features our biennial list of USA Tour Companies, a look back at the Gen 1 Kawasaki KLR650 as a great used bike choice, a Favorite Ride in scenic Southern Colorado and a peek at some new 2018 Kawasakis as well as the 1984-85 Kawasaki ZX750-E Turbo in Retrospective. All of our columnists are in rare form this month too, so this issue should keep you company for quite a while!
