If you’ve ever wanted to enjoy an exhilarating ride a long way from home, the December issue of Bike is for you. This month we’ve looked back at the greatest sports-tourers from the past 50 years, then brought the class bang up to date by pitching Kawasaki’s Ninja 1100SX SE against Yamaha’s Tracer 9 GT+ over several hundred miles on an epic road trip.
