And guess what? The M3 makes mincemeat of the Forester. The idea that you need all-wheel drive to go anywhere in the snow is bunk. Get winter tires on, or else your huge all-wheel drive SUV will get passed by a Corvette fitted with snow tires. Seriously.

I don't think Ducati is the only one. As much as I like the Scrambler, Honda really kickstarted a bit of a revival in small, practical bikes a couple years back with the CBR250R and NC700 - and now the 300 and 500 triplets, they've really rounded out modern, approachable bikes that anyone can ride (featuring such…

How much higher? Some say up to 8000 RPM. Which, on a V8, I think we can all agree is bonkers.

Hah, I think that's already happened in the comments above yours! iPhone car my ass...

A nice engine, but I'd be more inclined to give it to its successor, the S54B32.

The lack of ABS in Yamaha's entire stable (at least in NA) has them pretty much completely out of consideration in my book. It's nearly 2015 for pete's sake, and there is zero excuse to not have it at least as an option across the lineup. Very disappointing because otherwise this R3 and the FZ09 would be highly…

The Hurt Report

God forbid anyone's feelings get hurt on the internet.

There's one big problem with the Scrambler that I have yet to see anyone really address, especially if it's targeted at new riders. That 796 engine and its 7500mi, $1000 valve service.

Pretty sure you can see the ABS in here. Part of the system would be that inner ring of open holes + the sensor to detect wheel speed/lockup.

I feel your pain. Did the same thing in a loaner BMW 3-series (E90) I got while having some major work done on my own car. Thankfully the manual DID say how to open it but man did I feel like a dummy.

Seems more like "teaser" than "leak" to me.

It looks to me like a Duolever-style front suspension (BMW's term for it - they use it on the K1600). Strictly speaking it should be much better than a standard fork since there should be basically no dive-in on braking. It only looks funny because we're not used to seeing them and they're pretty uncommon.

Cool, but still not quite as cool to me as the E85 Z4 with the S85 V10 from an M5 crammed into it.

Not so sure about this bit... but overall I like very much!

A source today confirmed for Jalopnik that the tire-smoking, track-devouring Grand Cherokee SRT is, in fact, sticking around because it happens to be their best-seller. That's good news. The 470 horsepower Jeep is about as badass as an American SUV — no, any SUV — can get, so I'm glad to see it live on.

Well, the cells in brain tissue are the only ones in the body that cannot regenerate.
