Ever since we’ve been doubtfully looking at the strange looking motorcycle that meanwhile became familiar to our eyes, we’ve been wondering and throwing opinions related to the price for which it will be marketed.
Now, our suppositions have cleared up and Brammo has announced that their Enertia will be sold for $15,000. There is no doubt that you’ll be riding a unique looking, performing and hearing motorcycle, but doesn’t this look like a bit too appreciated product?
Its maker has also announced the introduction of a production version of this first model for the summer and that will be priced at $12,000. Ok, so we’re progressing. A few steps further and we’ll be all riding plug-in motorcycles like we were riding the Vespa. It is not the most appropriate comparison, I know, but this is technological evolution my friends and we’re all in it.
Everything coming from Germany is supposed to be top notch, but what happens when people get bored of the regular? The Satte Literschüssel happens!
Old time motorcycles have never looked this outrageous now that the strangest combination has reached our surprised eyes: A Duetz tractor engine mated to a Harley transmission and running gear while the fork looks like it was made by the Romans.
So if you suppose that the guy that built this will ride the thing, you’re right, but I (...) >> read
Everybody runs away from the 9 to 5 work schedule, but not everybody hits Jackpot like the founders of V-Twin Vineyards who a few years ago had the wonderful idea of starting their own business and produce fine wines which were especially addressed to motorcycles like themselves. It ended up being a big hit and now, after years of hard work, we can drink wines that are specially made for motorcyclists. Custom made wine?
The V-Twin Zin is the name of a wine that can be found in the (...) >> read
Not only U.S. has powerful motorcycle history, but Britain too. Here, we’re not talking about the first ever produced motorcycle in the world or how a certain company (let’s say Triumph) evolved with time, but it is more of a subjective interpretation of riders who have been always surrounded by motorcycles and look like they’ll always be.
You will notice that the rider was already leaning powerfully to prepare for the turn when the rear tire loses grip because of the dust situated on the racing track, probably from a décor exit of another racer. Our perseverant and yet lucky racer has the strength to support the motorcycle’s weight with its knee and elbow and manages to redirect it. Oh, an nobody even passes him!
With the motorcycle number continuously growing as well as the number of accidents in which two-wheeled vehicles are implied, we should take in consideration this Safety Video and learn from other’s mistakes when we read about fatal crashes. Ride Safe!
The reason why he does it is pretty obvious, but it is also degrading for the small and yet practical moped. Way to go Renault and smart one moped guy!
Usually at the news section we write about the latest motorcycle gadgets, innovations and pretty much last hour information, but sometimes it is well worth making an incursion into the past and see what riders would have spend their time on.
A great example is the steam powered motorcycle built by Roy Cliff. Let’s see what Annette, Roy’s wife has to say about the builder of the bike and the bike itself:
“Ray Clift was born in August, 1912, in Bellingham, WA, where he spent (...) >> read
Riders usually have second thoughts about riding their two-wheeled rockets as safety is a bigger and bigger concern. But a company called Hit Air has invented an air bag system that comes integrated in the motorcycle jacket and prevents the rider’s body from getting seriously injured in case of an impact followed by a serious fall (the kind that happen when car drivers turn left in front of an approaching motorcycle).
The Hit Air Jacket is equipped with an automatically inflatable (...) >> read
Motorcycle builders always try to keep their bike’s weight as low as possible in order to best value the engine’s power and prove efficient and great performing. But sometimes people feel like breaking the rules and I can’t find a better example than "the Led Zeppelin". >> read
