I love it when I see cars and motorcycles driven or ridden the way they were intended. Ducati Supersport Desmodue 900 Look at how far to the edge these Dunlop D2's are worn! Who else rides here? (Of course I know Le Bimb is Mr. Cray Cray... ๐) ...
What's the cafe racer in the back? And the Hulk in front? Interesting front end... I actually prefer riding in the cold, but then LaLaLand is two seasons...๐
I noticed that the first thing everyone looks at were the tyre treads and chicken strips. I couldn't push the bike to its limits at first (it takes years to get there!), so even tried to think of a manual way to scrub in the tyres so as not to be embarras...
Hi, ik2000, I'm still a squidly noob myself, and I respect ANY bike or car well ridden or driven, from 50cc scoots to superbikes. The other day I was leading two bikes - a Ninja and a Harley cruiser. I pulled right to let them pass as I started worrying a...
My last bike was a 1998 Buell S1 White Lightning, and I wore the tires down like your Duck. Current bike is harder to wear the tires to the edge, but I sure have ground down some floor boards! ...
A lot depends on several parameters Is this done on a track or on some great canyon roads with a nice layer of asphalt (in the summer preferably) ? Climate plays a huge part as well, since i started riding my Scrambler in october i still have over 1 cm le...
A true analogue bike that requires real skill...he just did a track day at Big Willow (Willow Springs) and I met him at the famous Snake overlook on Mulholland Highway in Malibu / Agoura Hills. NUTTER indeed...
I donโt have a license and acquiring one now is unlikely. However there were two events that are relevant. First was when I was six and my dad took me to Austria to have a look at a childrenโs motocross model. You see he used to race in his youth and want...
.. you don't see many bikers out here compared to 20 years ago. I used to get bored waving at the oncoming motor riders in those days, nowadays i feel like a lone ranger whenever i'm on a Ducati ... even on a sunny day. But strangely sales of motorcycles ...
As the riding population ages you get more of them in the โfat yearsโ, where they have a much higher disposable income. Which is temporarily good, since they go for all bells and whistles. The issue is that you can milk that only for those who rode a mope...
... but a Trump that is a nutter when it comes to cars ... inventing rules like: Cars should at least have 300 hp The more power a car has the less tax the owner pays Petrol is free No speed limits Big parts of nice driving roads should be converted in on...
I believe fuel is so cheap in Turkmenistan as to be almost free I really miss the old times, especially relatively empty yet interesting country roads. Still out there, unfortunately none really close to where I live so as to make for a fun detour on the ...
I would LOVE to read the abstract of your dissertation! I rode dirt bikes in my youth but put all the toys away when I had to act adult...then started riding again back in 2012...had an inexplicable off (from a red light turning left, no rain, no loose gr...
Itโs not too late for you - you rode dirt bikes when young. Thatโs the major difference. Without this or a similar experiences itโs difficult. You donโt fully forget to ride a bike and itโs the same if it has an engine or not. And if you start at over 30 ...
Inside Line: Sampling the Future Curvilicious Lycraยฎ-clad ladies, melting sun, shimmering wristwatches, cool shades, sticky snaky tarmac, glinting prototype bikes and an endless supply of paid up riding time. Thatโs why I got in to this line of work. Nope...
With my short hairs erect and goosebumps at full plucked chicken! Where can I buy the book!?!? Thank you for sharing that reverie, I havent read something at once so engaging yet so chockablock full of easter egg hints and references in a VERY long time, ...
