http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNQIc9DMSnQ&sns=em Put simply, the Harley-Davidson Road Glide has the best aerodynamics of any touring bike I have ever ridden.

The first thing you notice about the new AXO Freedom Adventure boots ($299.95 through ficeda.com.au) is the absence of bulky clips and latches typical of most adventure or off-road motorcycle boots. Instead, they feature the “Boa” latching system which is used in ski and snowboard boots. It consists of a...

There is nothing more comical and embarrassing for a big tough biker than “beard lift”. You’re trying to look super-cool on your big cruiser, but as soon as you accelerate beyond suburban dawdle, your beard lifts straight out in front of you. It’s hilarious if you’re a passerby, but it’s...

It looks like a modernist version of the postie bike and you wouldn’t be far wrong. The Vietnamese-made Bandit9 Bishop Motorcycle is powered by a Honda SuperSport 90-125cc engine, but has some high-grade components and exclusivity that warrant the relatively high pricetag of $US6400-6800, plus shipping. Those components include a...

The Harley-Davidson Street 500 should become an instant custom classic when it hits the Aussie showrooms early next year. Like the Yamaha Bolt and the coming Indian Scout, the Street 500 is a blank canvas that oozes character and begs for the customiser to have a go. It should arrive at...
