Okay hear me out. A bunch of large helium balloons tied to lawn chair. Get as high as possible before they burst, then enjoy terminal velocity all the way to ground.

The entire Charlotte metropolis roadway is a freaking nightmare. This is just one small part of all that is wrong with their infrastructure. There’s a reason Charlotte is frequently at or near the top of cities worldwide with the worst road layout. I hate driving through there.

All three bikes need an oil change and a good wash. The Norton needs the fuel replaced as it’s a bit old. The CB350 needs new plugs and leads. The Bonneville needs an inspection.

2015 if I need four wheels. I vacillate between 2006, 1972, and 1969 if I prefer two wheels.

Next week on Youtube: VINWiki’s “How I obtained this super car from Syria during a war”

I’m looking forward to seeing the Honda Passport get put through some actual offroading paces. Let some custom houses loose and see just how capable they really are.

I would argue BMW or Lexus. Basically a luxury brand that someone gets once they feel they’ve “made it.”

Love my Norton. They’re not perfect, but they’re something special. And the parts/advice support system is second to none. Mostly because it has to be. Can’t rely on the factory, so it’s been a home-grown system for a long time with lots of helpful owners.

Count me as part of the minority who never played.

Cue the inevitable Jalopnik article “What car-related item do you want for the holidays?” article, which will become a slideshow the following day.

$7k seems like a lot for a common old vehicle that is not currently functional.

I misread his handle as “DeathSpartan117" and thought “well that fits”. But yeah please for the sake of our first responders and your loved ones PLEASE do not start on a Hayabusa.

I for one welcome our new motorcycle-focused song overlords.

It’s the 80/20 rule. I’m filling up WAY WAY more than I will run out of gas and be stranded on the road. I want my filler to be on the driver side as it’s more convenient when I’m filling up. Which I do weekly. The last time I ran out of gas and had to fill on the side of the road was 2003.

I don’t really care for the name, but I also don’t buy my bikes based on names. I buy on specs. If this thing does what I need for a daily commuter, and is in the right price range, I’m really going to consider.

I hate this commenting program...

What’s that? Did you say what MOTORCYCLE has the best logo?

Love it. Would the rear window still roll down into the tailgate?

I’ve always liked the Holden logo.

That 400x is the cutest thing. 100% would go for that. Desert roads or logging trails fit perfectly with it. You could probably find a thinner seat to adjust height, but I’d be wary of that minimizing comfort.
