It’s Fast Bikes magazine’s flagship Ultimate Sportsbike test and this year, it’s bigger and better than ever before.
In this special edition, we’ve taken NINE of the very best sportsbikes and clocked a serious amount of miles, spun a serious amount of laps and wolfed down way more Big Macs than is advisable to establish the best sportsbike of 2020.
It isn’t long until our special 2020 Ultimate Sportsbike edition hits the shelves.

As we count down to the special issue of Fast Bikes, take a look at the kit we will be wearing for the ultimate group test – provided by our friends at RST Moto.
Who’s up for this year’s prize?
The contenders include last year’s Ultimate Sportsbike Champion, the unchanged BMW S 1000 RR M Sport, as well as second and third place finishers, the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory and the Ducati Panigale V4S, both slightly updated for 2020.
The Yamaha YZF-R1M has also been tweaked for this year but two of the most exciting additions to the 2020 line-up have to be Honda’s all-new CBR1000RR-R Fireblade, and Triumph’s also all-new Daytona Moto2 765.
We’ve already banged on about how good they are, but we couldn’t wait to find out how they’d fare against the rest of the pack.
And because it’s new, and Frodo waxed lyrical about how much he loved it on its launch earlier on this year (so much so that he actually went out and bought one), we invited a Ducati Panigale V2 along to the party, too.
A couple of superbike stalwarts that remain unchanged for this season, but still deserve a place in USB, are the Suzuki GSX-R1000R and Kawasaki ZX-10RR – both cracking road bikes in their own right, even if they aren’t quite as cutting edge as the competition.
If a job’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right, which is why we’ve gone to the lengths we have to put this mammoth super bike test together. It’s the ultimate test of the ultimate bikes on the road, on the track, on the dyne, and even on the scales. We’ve left no stone unturned in our quest to find the very best sportsbike money can buy in 2020.
