Whatever shape or size it might come in, a new piece of machinery giving you a new perspective, speed or handling experience, is pretty damn exciting. From the dirt tracks to the snow covered mountains, these are the 5 machines we want to own right now.
Ski-Doo Renegade Adrenaline Crossover Snowmobile
Own an alpine retreat? Even if the answer is sadly no, it doesn’t stop men wanting their own snowmobile. The Ski-Doo Renegade is the ultimate in snow travel. With its sleek design it looks the part, and with its clever rMotion suspension, HPG Plus shocks and Pilot 5.7 skis, it will ensure all things are covered both on and off the piste.

Thrive Yamaha XS650 Motorcycle
We don’t really need to say much here, I mean just look at the thing, absolutely stunning. You would expect its styling to be influenced by a vintage fighter plane, but you would be wrong. In fact, it has been styled based on a wood-burning stove. Based on the classic 1968 Yamaha XS950 and with its custom body work, you’re sure to get noticed.

Polaris Sportsman Ace
What could be more fun than spending the afternoon driving at relative speeds along dirt tracks and through the wood? Not much in our view. The Polaris Sportsman Ace is just the bit of kit you need. The 1,000cc double-overhead-cam, four-valve-per-cylinder engine producing 107hp will ensure constant thrills.

Ducati 1200 Monster
Most men at some point in their lives will think about getting a racing bike, an then their head will take over their hearts. Lets just say for argument sake that money wasn’t an option (neither safety), we think the Ducati Monster 1200 motorcycle would be the bike in you garage. Ducati’s are firstly built and because of this their skeleton frame looks stunning. This twin cylinder engine will produce 145 horsepower and 92 pound-feet of torque. This combined with the fact that it only weighs 400 pounds means bored you won’t be.

BMW R 1200 Adventure Motorcycle
BMW are the undisputed kings of adventure bikes, but are also renowned for their on-road capabilities as well as off-road. The BMW R 1200 Adventure is one of the latest models to roll off the production line and once again its looks and abilities don’t disappoint. It has a flat-twin two-cylinder four-stroke engine that produces 125 brake horsepower. This combined with its near eight gallon fuel tank means maximum efficiency for those long distance adventures. The styling of BMW’s adventure bike has almost become iconic with a combination of strong lines and solid shape. We love it.
