I still remember when the original “John Wick” (2014) hit the screen. It was almost Halloween, Ninja Turtles had won first place as everybody’s top costume, and there I was avoiding the festivities because I couldn’t stop memorizing “Fortis Fortuna Aduivat” and drooling over a handful of insane action scenes...
The picture I’ve placed above is an interesting one. For those not in the know, it’s an image from the...
The 1970s and 1980s were a golden age for forced induction engines. Like shoulder pads in suits and mascara on...
Last month’s little ditty on on-road two-stokes was just the start. And while we love us some asphalt action, there’s no doubting that two-strokes rock just as hard off-road as they do on. These manufacturers’ persistence in making their dirt-bound ring-a-ding-dingers long after giving up on their on-road models should...
On June 11th this year I will set out from Dawson City, Yukon on a 1000 mile motorcycle adventure. There...

Unique Vision Squandered by Harley-Davidson Buell Motorcycle Company is best known for its connection with Harley-Davidson. It’s one of the many things you can point to in Harley’s long history that The Motor Company managed to mess up, but that’s really only part of the story of Buell. The company’s...

The helmet in the photo above was run over by another motorcycle at high speed during a race. The wearer walked away without sustaining a head injury. Take a moment to let that soak in. I’m often asked by people who know I test riding gear which helmet to buy...
Easy Rider. Motorcycle Diaries. World’s Fastest Indian. These same old, same old movies always seem to be included in top...

If you’re a child of the ’70s and ’80s like me, your first experience of motorcycle ice racing will probably be a lot like mine. The first time I ever contemplated the idea of motorcycles having bloody great spikes in their tyres was when I saw Roger Moore in the...

Powersports is often viewed as a male-dominated industry—and indeed, many important contributions to the field have been made by men. But women have been integral to the development of high-speed vehicles and the culture that surrounds them as well, and their contributions are acknowledged far less often. We’re not making...
On April 14, Indian Motorcycles made headlines by announcing a series of customization projects in the works – models based...
Challis, Idaho… Have you heard of it? Maybe it’s just me who hasn’t, I’m not sure. What I know now...
Ryan F9 has become a YouTube sensation thanks to his wit, no-nonsense on-camera presence, and entertaining video montages. I appreciate the artistry and dialogue in his videos but take issue with inaccuracies in some of them. Contrary to how he presents himself, Ryan isn’t a helmet safety expert. Very few...
Despite how the past couple of years have gone in the world, 2022 is shaping up to be a very...
As we reported earlier this month, Road Guardians is auctioning off the Harley-Davidson New Glory Flag Bike, with the entries...
On July 12th, I had the amazing pleasure of munching words with arguably THE most popular rider in all of dirt track racing. There I was, phone in hand, prepped to the nines for the interview and all I could think about – apart from the constant white noise of...
A Long Ride for Any Bike The Harley-Davidson LiveWire is a polarizing motorcycle. People seem to either love it or...
While you could argue that all bikers have a little bit of crazy in them, anybody with a decent amount...
I recently wrote a review of the Bell SRT Modular helmet that was, in my eyes, pretty standard wBW quality and unremarkable. Originally it had been assigned to one of our other reviewers before being passed to me which again seems unimportant. Looking back now a couple of months later...

You really can’t call your company Combat Motors and not have some inspiration from militaries past and present. Therefore, on...
Big Things on the Horizon for Damon Motorcycles Sitting at a table in the Damon Motorcycles lab and design center wearing a snug-fitting sweater Jay Giraud looked 100 percent the tech company CEO that he is. A clay model of the HyperSport sat in the background over his right shoulder...

There’s no doubt that the motorcycling landscape is changing. Over a relatively short period of time, we’ve seen a bigger focus on emissions regulations, the development of affordable electric models, and unexpected new trends.

To ATGATT or Not to ATGATT? Do you wear All The Gear All The Time (ATGATT)? As motorcyclists, we are all too familiar with the age-old battle between freedom of choice and personal responsibility. We’ve heard the arguments from both sides for decades. Choosing protection, whether it’s full head-to-toe or...
