You guys seemed to enjoy the “Just Ride” video I did with a Honda CBR250RR, so I thought it’d be fun to do another one with a personal bike – my Bimota Tesi 3D!

I went for a little ride this weekend and saw some fun stuff – come check it out!

A couple of days ago I mentioned that I was going to take a MC22 out for a spin for a video. Well, here’s the video!

Over at Iconic, I’ve been trying out a video series called “Bike of the Day.” Here’s one I felt like I had to share because I don’t know if I’ll ever seen one of these bikes in the flesh again. It’s an Aston Martin AMB001 that came to us for a break-in service of sorts, and I hope you enjoy …

If you weren’t following the Baja 1000 this year, there’s one person you have to hear about: Wouter Jan Van Dijk. He’s a Dutchman living in Australia (with extensive off-road experience) that flew to California, bought a 2015 KTM 500 in San Diego, rode the bike down to La Paz, and then raced the Baja 1000 in the Ironman Class …

I’ve mentioned the NSF250R several times recently on Bike-urious, most recently because we’re selling some over at Iconic and I was considering picking one up as a track bike before I went with a Kramer instead. I got the chance to put a couple of laps on a 250R at CotA but I’m just a bit too big for the …

Bike-urious reader Larry F. reached out to me a couple of weeks ago saying that he was going to be at Monterey for the annual Car Week and he was hoping to meet up. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it up this year (I’ve actually never been, oops) but he was kind enough to share a few photos from his trip …

Last month, the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association (AHRMA) brought its traveling show to Laguna Seca. I was planning on being at Laguna Seca the day after AHRMA anyway for an Aprilia Racers Day event, so it was an easy call to head up a day early and check out some classics!

While I was out for a ride this Sunday, I met a local gentleman named Gordon who was on a beautiful Bonneville. I asked him what year the bike was, to which he responded “1965” and then shocked me by saying he was the original owner! Serious kudos to Gordon for keeping a bike like this on the road for …

I had a bit of a surreal day this past weekend – within the span of a few hours I got to ride my personal Bimota Tesi 3D, our shop’s Bimota Tesi H2, and something I never thought I’d be able to ride…a Honda RC213V-S belonging to a very trusting client!

Last year, LEGO created a Technic set of the BMW M1000RR and Vy and I had a wonderful time putting it together. Impressively, it featured a functional 3-speed transmission (with neutral). I actually was a bit bummed out that you couldn’t see the internal workings of the transmission (as well as the engine, which had a crankshaft/pistons and spun at …

Kawasaki recently had the press launch of their headline-grabbing ZX-4RR sportbike, and reviews are generally positive. The main complaints seem to be the price and the tune – Kawasaki had to neuter the bike above 11k rpms in the US for noise requirements. This is obviously easily fixed with an ECU flash, though that voids the warranty. With that said, …

Next week I get to check something off my bucket list – the Isle of Man TT! I leave on Sunday and will be out there for a few days, but I’ve never been before. Have you? If so, I’d love your thoughts and recommendations!

My buddies Zack Courts and Spurgeon Dunbar are the co-hosts of RevZilla’s Highside/Lowside podcast, and they recently asked me to join them as a guest for an episode discussing the new Kawasaki ZX-4RR. If you have 90 minutes to kill on your commute, click on through to hear what we had to say!

In exciting news, my buddy Roland Sands has asked us Iconic to auction off some his collection – and we’ve started with a couple of interesting pre-sales! One of the bike is Roland’s CR500-powered “cafe racer”, and his team created a fun video explaining what the bike is about before it goes to its new home in Canada.
