ZX-10R v Blade v GSX-R1000

If you’ve been keeping up to date with MCN’s world first tests through December you’ll already have our verdicts on the utterly nutterly Kawasaki ZX-10R, breathtakingly brilliant 2004 Fireblade and as awesome-as-ever 2004 GSX-R1000. Now, for the first time, they are going head to head.

In the Tuesday December 30 issue of MCN we compare the big three for the first time to find the ultimate superbike for 2004… at least until Yamaha’s new R1 is launched in February!

This week’s MCN also features the world first test of the updated £26,000 Suzuki TL1000-powered Bimota SB8K Gobert. And there’s news of five new Bimotas to follow.

And find out how the 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600 can be turned into 130bhp beast.

Don’t forget, MCN is out Tuesday this week! Overseas customers can take out an E-subscription which delivers the latest issue in full to you on the day of publication. Click the link, right, for details.
