2018 - 2021 Honda CB650R - Performance, Price, and Photos
After a race to the upper displacement range and a subsequent search for the bottom usable cubeage, Honda revisited its midrange and spruced up its CB650R ahead of the 2019 model year. That’s right sports fans; the Neo Sport Café concept has gone to production under this new moniker, and it rolled into MY2019 with a handful of tweaks that brushed up the looks and carved off a little fat. The powerplant also took a beating from the buffhammer to turn out a 5-percent increase in power with changes to improve rideability and safety.

Feast Your Eyes On This Gorgeous Electric Cafe Racer Based On The Super Soco TC Electric Bike
Electric motorcycles are all about pushing the technological boundaries and boasting futuristic designs.
However, when a customer brought in his Super Soco TC electric bike to Belgian designer Benjamin Surain’s door, he did the opposite, taking a step back and converting the modern e-bike into a staggering yet minimalistic cafe racer.

Italy is home to some of the most premium and gorgeous motorcycles in the world, most of which are fairly expensive big bikes.
But what about the entry-level segment? Well, FB Mondial, an Italian bikemaker with a prestigious racing heritage in the world championship, took matters into its own hands, creating these two stunning 125cc motorcycles called the HPS 125 and Pagani 1948 Sports Classic 125.

This Bodykit Converts Your Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 Into A Full-faired Sportbike
The Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 has been a go-to motorcycle for custom bikemakers looking to create easy-on-the-pocket builds. But MK Designs, based out of India, has something for existing customers, can up the sport quotient on your GT 650 by a sizeable chunk.
Here’s Your Chance To Take Home The Scintillating 2002 Ducati MH900 Evoluzione
Back in the late 1990s, renowned motorcycle designer Pierre Terblanche sketched an ultra-beautiful motorcycle for Ducati. While the bike wasn’t really meant to go into production, Ducati received immensely positive feedback about this bike which ultimately led to Ducati deciding to bring this sketch to life, thus introducing the exotic Ducati MH900E.
To keep things interesting, the Italian giant only made 2,000 MH900E’s and the first 1,000 were sold out in just 31 minutes!
Thanks to this exclusivity, even after 22 years of its first launch, the MH900E still remains one of the most popular buys amongst collectors. And if you want one for yourself, Iconic Motorbike Auctions has one available. Let’s take a look at it.
A Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 With More Power Than A Ninja 650? Nope, We Ain’t Kidding
When looking for a value-for-money multi-cylinder bike, it doesn’t really get any better than the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. Hailing from India, the bike offers a fantastic blend of classic styling and a thumping engine.
The only gripe with it though can be its power output, which is closer to 400cc bikes rather than its 650cc rivals.
To counter this, French bikemaker Baak Motorcycles has taken matters into its own hands and has created a one-of-a-kind custom Continental GT 650, putting out more power than the Kawasaki Ninja 650!
The Much-Awaited Honda Hawk 11 Neo-Retro Bike To Debut In March
Honda has dropped the first-ever teaser image and video of its upcoming Hawk 11. To jog your memory, there had been several rumors suggesting that a new old-school Honda motorcycle is set to swoop in, essentially replacing the CB1100 that was discontinued last year.
But that’s not all, another teaser will drop sometime between now and the official launch date of the bike, set to take place at the Osaka Motorcycle Show 2022 scheduled for March the 19th.
With that out of the way, let’s dive into the details (or whatever we know so far).
2018 - 2022 Kawasaki Z900RS CAFE
Kawasaki maintains the momentum it garnered in 2018 by rolling its popular Z900RS CAFE straight over into MY2022. And, why not? It’s hard to argue with success, and the retro-tastic looks and modern performance make excellent bedfellows, especially with the Seventies-fabulous graphics as the icing on the proverbial cake. The “CAFE” falls at the southern edge of liter-bike territory, which could potentially be dangerous for a new rider, but it carries all the requisite safety equipment needed to keep it dirty-side down.

2016 - 2022 Yamaha Bolt R-Spec / Bolt C-Spec
The Bolt from Yamaha’s Star cruiser line is a cool little bobber-style bike with its high tank, short wheelbase, and solo seat. It’s a nice around town bike — lightweight and agile — and naked with real-steel sheet metal, so it just begs you to customize it. What could be better? Enter the Bolt’s siblings, the dressier Bolt R-Spec and the café racer Bolt C-Spec. The Spec duo are every bit as snappy and fun to ride as the Bolt, but with some upgrades, both hardware and cosmetic. Powered by the air-cooled 942 cc V-twin engine, the Specs are in the same size slot as the Bolt: not too small that you’ll outgrow it right away and not so big to be overwhelming for new riders. At just a few bills more than the Bolt, they’re worth a look.

2017 - 2020 Harley-Davidson Street Rod
Traffic-carving performance wasn’t the first thing I thought of when hearing the name Harley-Davidson, but the MoCo started changing that perception with the new-in-2017 Street Rod 750. While it is, in fact, based on the Street 750, multiple changes in the setup and equipment turn it into another animal entirely. Shorter steering geometry, a more aggressive rider triangle and a more powerful engine come together in H-D’s decisive push into the sport-standard market.
Is The Two-Stroke Road Bike Dead? This Company Doesn’t Think So.
0The Two-Stroke Is Not Dead Yet0
Who wants a two-stroke road bike? Who is disappointed you can’t buy one? Who would be happy if you were able to buy one?
There are many of us who remember with great fondness the 2-stroke engine, with its distinctive sound, smell and blistering performance out of all proportion to its capacity.
Back in the 1990s, the writing was on the wall for the two-stroke. The emissions were just too high for the bleating environmental lobby, and the manufacturers were (...)
Unico Moto Transform A Monster Ducati into A Classic Cafe Racer
There are custom bikes and there are custom bikes. And then there is this beauty from Unico Moto in Florida. Featured in www.pipeburn.com, it was too good to not share here. It started life as a Ducati Monster and a Ducati 900SS but that’s where the similarity ends. Unbelievable attention to detail and some of the best fabrication work we’ve seen go to make this one very special creation.
