As someone that lives in Southern Italy, I have to say that this is just funny to me on SOOOO many levels. Let me set a few things straight for the people that know only the tourist side of Italy:

1) Italy, like many countries (including the US) has a little bit of an economic disparity between the north and the…

+12345 for your service!

Do you have a high res version of that? I’d love to add it to my collection of backgrounds :)

Wow, I think this hits the nail on the head... I too thought the comparison was a little thin at best. The 675LT pays only a little homage to the F1 Long Tail. Its not a race car, its not a brute, and its not something that is barely road legal... The 675LT is a tarted up 650S for people that can’t get a P1, and want…

As a 690 Duke owner I’ve been following all the news about the 800 duke. I’m not sure I like a parallel twin on paper, but I’m sure it will work wonders for that bike. Mine has been 100% problem free and parts are easy to come by with new dealerships getting KTM left and right.

~2600 lbs and change? GO PAGANI! Seriously this is the only car manufacturer that is making cars that are actually light! I also applaud him for making that normally awful looking huayra actually look good.

So does the Corse vest intimidate other motorcycle clubs? Or did you just look down on them because that dont speak Eyetalian. Also, is the vest something that comes with the xDiavel or is it extra?

Like many have said, I don’t really think its the location but the laws that govern it. For instance, when I lived in an HOA as long as I did repairs on my property, and kept cars on tires when they weren’t in the garage, they didn’t care much about what I did. Then again some of the neighbors did take offence to me…

Loved the analysis! I cant wait for the 2016 season!

Sean, Let me start out by saying this is easily your best work. It shows by the freedom you have to cover whatever you want. The prose is flowing and easy to understand. At other places before this you could tell (only a little) when you were “phoning it in” just to make someone happy. I feel like LaneSplitter is your…

I know I’m coming late to this party, but I thought this was a great article and loved the racers take on the bikes.

... but there is one major problem with it. It’s powered by a giant, 690cc single-cylinder engine that vibrates like a motherfucker. Sitting on the highway to get the twisties becomes an exercise in holding onto the bike as loosely as possible for fear it will tickle you off or put your hands, feet and ass to sleep.

I have a sneaking suspicion it will be a “stripped down” model. If they follow the convention from the 06+ R6’s. Where the R6-R was the new version and the R6-S was the older version (that they still produced and sold). So I’d assume they cut out some of the trick electronics, or suspension or both.

Ok, I just want to make sure that they can just flip a switch and start tweaking the 1190 without getting into any trouble with IP.

AWESOME!!!! THIS IS AWESOME! However, I thought Hero took all the IP associated with all of EBR’s bikes? If so, I hope they have the second iteration of the 1190 ready to go. That plus some bosch traction control goodness and that bike would live amongst the kings.

yup, it was ABS away from being ducati fighter. Which is sad, because if they had time to develop a second generation of that bike it would have been amazing!

Not that I can do much other than move stuff around... if you ever need any help let me know!

I was not expecting this at all! No, it is I who should be thanking you for giving me something visually stimulating to be mesmerized by! I was also 1000% serious about the making a full length flick, I would totally pay again and again for that type of insight and entertainment.

After watching the whole film (which is about 20min long) I can say that I was left wanting more. You REALLY need to understand who/what the TT is before you watch it. The interviews are cool and the video is amazing (it is luke huxhum after all). Over all I’d say watch it with 4 friends, as its worth the $1 or so,…

I like, many people, may have started this way as well. I’m thankful I was never in anything fast, but I knew others that were and shared similar fates. Back then I didn’t know there were tracks to go to or even autocrosses. I probably would have signed up given they are both much cheaper than a ticket.

I’m sorry…
