Amanda Quick spends her time managing her business, digging into old bike manuals and prepping for Canada's warmer seasons. Her love for bikes has her head stuck in the more futuristic predictions of the Powersports industry, seconded only by her love for cello and obsession with effective communications.
Articulate nerd with a terrible sleep schedule and a dotty love for horsepower.

Last week, we covered the new comm unit from Cardo Systems. Christened the “Packtalk Custom,” this little bit of bobbetry came with upgradable Pay-Per-Feature subscription packages that had the masses wondering about monthly memberships. Since then, Cardo has come out with a press release to clear the air; no, PackTalk...

I love me a good R 18 build. We’ve seen more than a few bangin’ R 18 projects pass by the good WBW platform. There was the trike-d R 18 that we found featuring louvered panels and hood straps (surprisingly sexy, I’ll admit), and a postapocalyptic SoulFuel R 18 unit...
Remember when KTM bought a 25.1% stake (capital increase) in Italian motorcycle marque MV Agusta, back in Q4 of 2022?...

Up until today, we would have offered that Harley-Davidson’s smallest model was their Street® 500 – a bike boasting 41hp, a 28” seat height, and a wet weight of 489lb. Now, however, the long-anticipated Harley-Dadvison X350 has debuted for Chinese markets sporting a lightweight 430lbs and a mere 36 ponies...

If you had your sights set on the all-new 2023 BMW S 1000 RR, you might be waiting a bit before she rolls in – and it’s all the fault of an optional brake lever pin. The old brake lever pin apparently didn’t do its job, with coverage recorded by...

As if it weren’t enough that Can-Am tossed out a pair of electric, two-wheeled, siblingish scoots for a 2024 debut, their parent company – Bombardier Recreational Products – has now got a corner of their lab reserved for hub-steering ICE bikes. According to CycleWorld, the bike’s design is the work...

When Tyler O’Hara locked down the crown in 2022’s King of the Baggers (KOTB), you knew Indian Motorcycles was going to make a holy fuss about it; luckily for us, that fuss involves punting out the very first purpose-built bagger available to the public, ever. You heard right; Indian’s all-new...

March 11th is a few short days away – that means we still have some time before FIM’s Motocross World Championship takes over the calendar – and the scheduled shenanigans will begin in Patagonia’s Villa La Angostura, Argentina.

From the heritage-happy land of Schwetzingen, Germany, we bring you the 1000th motorcycle project to grace the good doors of WalzWerk Motorcycles. In fine form, the bike chosen for the build was none other than a 1990 BMW R1000RS – a key piece in Marcus Walz’s café racer collection, and...

As the airbag scene continues to inflate (no pun intended), Honda’s slowly building on their experience as our industry’s pioneer in the things – and they’re doing it by creating a cushy unit that would eject out of the bike to wrap around the rider themself. If you recall, Honda...

Unfortunately, the governing bodies of Europe have decided not to act on advice from the National Motorcyclists Council (NMC) to revamp outdated motorcycle license legislation. Fortunately, the NMC’s not the kind of organization to give up, so they’re now appealing to the UK in the hopes they will be better...

Motorcycling has never been a budget-friendly business – at least, not for me. From the scads of cool gear and updating top-tier safety regulations to the stunning new bikes being punted out into the Powersports industry proper, there’s too much good stuff to throw money at – and that includes...
In a brilliant dive into directories, 15-time AMA Champion Ricky Carmichael and nine-time AMA Champion Ryan Villopoto have joined forces...
