Suzuki expansion
Suzuki have expanded their dealer network with the appointment of M&M Motorcycles near Cambridge and Fins Motorcycles in Surrey.

KTM make small EXC tweaks for ’25
KTM have released details of their 2025 EXC range, which the Austrian brand say adds further refinement to the platform following “over 30 years of race-bred performance”. The range sees minor changes – mainly to the bodywork, which gets fresh colours, and revisions to the fuel tank to increase security and prevent frame rub. Suspension is the same, but the WP XPLOR rear shock receives new base settings.
