Have you already booked your travel to Austin for MotoGP in April? Whether or not the answer is yes, you may want to consider this giveaway from Aprilia Racing Team…

Zero’s just unveiled some photos and specs of their newest model, the SR/S. What do you think?

My favorite challenges in the old Top Gear were the ones focused around what the presenters could buy for a small budget. They don’t really do that kind of thing any more, but the boys over at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC captured some of that same magic with a 6-episode series on YouTube about taking $500 dirt bikes on 5 Miles …

If you’re looking to get together with some fellow ADV nerds in Northern California, REV’IT’s debuting a new event that they’re calling the Adventure Rally in May. It’s a little fancier than the usual – you won’t have to bring your sleeping or cooking gear if you don’t want to as they’re basing it out of a “glamping” area called …

How long do you think it takes BMW to make a (previous-gen) S1000RR? 2 hours. Learn that and more in this interesting (and weirdly-dramatic) documentary about their plant in Berlin.

While you’re waiting for my review of the new Kawasaki Z H2 to go live on Cycle News (UPDATE: here’s that review!), I thought you might enjoy a small peek behind the curtain because we don’t always get to see this kind of thing when a new motorcycle is released. Here are some design sketches that Kawasaki was willing to …

I’m just about to land in Vegas – hopefully I’ll see you at the Mecum auction on Saturday? If you’re not able to make it, don’t forget that you can watch the auctions live online!

I met Matthias Beier a couple of years ago in the motorcycle industry as he is the Marketing Coordinator for Shoei Helmets – you may remember the X-14 I enjoyed so much that I had a custom livery created for it by Velocity Tape? Early in 2019, we were discussing a CBX that was in his family, and then I …

Mark Suslik (who also goes by “The White Wolf”), is a Polish rider who has a tremendous amount of experience riding in freezing temperature. Two days ago, he left on a trip to the “coldest village on earth” – Oymyakon, Siberia – where he expects to see AVERAGE temperatures of -46°C (-50.8°F). His mount? A 1987 Honda XL600. Oh, and …

The most recent episode of Jay Leno’s Garage features a motorcycle from Jay’s own collection. Specifically, it’s a machine that was way ahead of its time – the Scott Flying Squirrel TT Replica.

Just in time for some fancy Christmas shopping, Ducati has announced something called the Memorabilia Project, “giving, for the first time, fans of the Bologna-based bike manufacturer the chance to purchase certified parts from bikes used in recent years by MotoGP and Superbike team riders.”

It’s always a good day when Petrolicious releases a motorcycle-focused video, and this one is especially interesting. They start by asking the redundant question, “Is it practical to ride an Italian sportbike from Amsterdam to Cape Town?” Meet Peter Muurman, who has covered almost 62,500 miles on his Ducati 998 in 54 different countries!

The trailer for the newest Bond movie was released yesterday, and there’s a Triumph Scrambler 1200 in a supporting role. Near the end of the trailer, there’s a motorcycle jump that’s worth a closer look – and thankfully someone on YouTube has provided just that.
