Known as the “Thumper” for its iconic single-cylinder engine, this dual-sport pioneer dominated off-road racing in the 1970s and 80s, winning the Paris-Dakar Rally twice and earning a cult following for its rugged simplicity. Fast-forward to 2025, and the motorcycle...

A motorcycle so ferocious, it could outrun the Ferrari F355 sports car it stole its heart from. Meet the HF355—a hand-built, Ferrari-powered beast crafted by custom motorcycle maestro Maxwell Hazan. This isn’t a factory prototype or a billionaire’s fantasy. It’s real,...

The Honda TR200 Fat Cat isn’t your average vintage dirt bike. With its cartoonish balloon tires, automatic clutch, and quirky 1980s charm, this two-year wonder (produced only in 1986 and 1987) has evolved from a beginner-friendly oddball into a cult-classic...

If there's one bike that's mastered the art of staying relevant without chasing every tech trend, it's the Suzuki SV650. Since 1999, this middleweight roadster has carved out a cult following, and the 2025 model proves some legends only get better with age. I've seen...

The 2025 KTM 390 Enduro R promises to be a lightweight, tech-packed dual-sport that’s “Ready to Race.” On paper, it’s a tantalizing proposition, but specs don’t always tell the whole story. After digging into KTM’s specs and talking to community riders, three glaring...

$77K for a three-wheeled motorcycle sounds insane. That’s enough to buy two Harley-Davidson Freewheelers and still have cash left for a weekend at Sturgis. But after spending weeks digging into the 2025 Boss Hoss Dragon LS3—and talking to owners who’ve strapped...

70% of new riders regret their first motorcycle within six months. Why? Because they fall for the flashy ads, the Instagram influencers, or their uncle's "back in my day…" advice. But here's the truth seasoned riders won't always tell you: your first bike isn't about...

An Italian-designed machine with a price tag that makes you do a double-take. $7,999? That's thousands less than the Kawasaki Versys 650 parked next to it. Meet the Moto Morini X-Cape 650—a bike that's been turning heads with its blend of style, specs, and sticker...

Imagine two machines so powerful that they blur the line between motorcycle and myth. One's a four-wheeled beast with a Viper engine; the other, a supercharged predator built for the track. But only one can claim the crown. The Dodge Tomahawk and Kawasaki Ninja H2R...

The 2015 Electra Glide Craze If you’ve been paying attention to the used Harley market—or just cruising down the highway—you’ve probably noticed something: the 2015 Electra Glide is everywhere. It’s popping up in dealership lots, online listings, and most importantly,...

As someone who owned a Ducati Panigale V4 S and a Yamaha R1M, I’ve learned one brutal truth: the cost of speed isn’t just about horsepower—it’s about insurance premiums, hidden fees, and the fine print that can drain your wallet. Let’s break down why insuring a...

Yep, Honda’s Koraidon—a real-life replica of the rideable dragon from Pokémon Scarlet—is the motorcycle equivalent of that high school crush who moved away before prom. It’s there, it’s glorious, and it’s not coming to America. At least, not yet. Let’s unpack why this...

Your first motorcycle shouldn’t scare you, bankrupt you, or collect dust in a garage because it’s too intimidating. I learned this the hard way when I bought a bulky cruiser as a rookie—it spent more time tipped over at stoplights than on the road. After years of...

If you’re torn between Ducati’s Diavel V4 and the all-new 2025 XDiavel V4, you’re not alone. Both bikes are masterclasses in blending brute power with Italian flair, but they cater to wildly different riders. Having spent years navigating twisty backroads and freezing...

No aftermarket hassle, no DIY wiring—just pure, factory-installed warmth. Let’s talk bikes that treat your fingers right. I’ve spent winters cursing numb fingers and fumbling with aftermarket grip kits. Let’s just say I’ve learned the hard way: factory-installed...

I loved my 2020 Yamaha R6. That screaming 599cc inline-four engine, the way it hugged corners like Velcro, the adrenaline rush at 14,500 RPM—it wasn’t just a bike. So, when Yamaha announced the 2025 R6 would be track-only, I felt like I’d lost a limb. Yamaha didn’t...

It’s 7:30 AM in downtown Austin, Texas. Cars are gridlocked, tempers are flaring, and I’m sitting atop my Royal Enfield Hunter 350, grinning like a kid who just found the secret exit in a maze. This bike promised retro charm and city-friendly agility—but does it...

Why Some Motorcycles Become Lifelong Companions Over my 17 years of riding—from rusty trail bikes to polished touring machines—I’ve learned that some motorcycles aren’t just built to last. They’re built to outlive their riders. These machines become family heirlooms,...

I’ve ridden the Royal Enfield Classic 350 on highways where semis blow past like freight trains and on backroads where time slows to match the bike’s lazy thump. This isn’t a review—it’s a confession. I’m a sucker for retro charm, but I also need a bike that doesn’t...

Behind every Indian-made motorcycle in the U.S. is a story of cross-continental partnership. Triumph’s Speed 400 thrives thanks to Bajaj’s manufacturing muscle, while KTM’s Duke 390 leverages Austrian design with India’s built precision. These collaborations aren’t...

As a motorcycle enthusiast who’s spent years riding everything from dirt bikes to touring rigs, I’ve learned one truth: your first bike shapes your riding journey. Get it right, and you’ll fall in love with two wheels. Get it wrong, and you might swear off motorcycles...

The Yamaha R6 was a legend. That screaming inline-four engine, razor-sharp handling, and track-ready DNA made it the holy grail for sportbike junkies. But in 2020, Yamaha pulled the plug. Cue the outrage. Fast-forward to 2025, the R7 is now the star of the show—a bike...

The Day Ducati Broke the Internet Let’s rewind to May 30, 2024. I’m scrolling through Instagram, coffee in hand, when my feed explodes with a neon-red Ducati plastered with Supreme’s iconic box logo. My first thought? “Is this a meme?” Turns out, no—it’s the Ducati...

Getting lost in the middle of nowhere with a dead phone signal is not part of the adventure. Gone are the days of duct-taping your phone to the handlebars or squinting at a clunky aftermarket GPS. Manufacturers are finally listening to riders who want tech that works...

The Royal Enfield Electrik 01, also known as Flying Flea C6, is a retro-styled electric bike that’s rewriting the rules of EV mobility. But let’s face it: electric motorcycles still face skepticism. “Too boring! Too expensive! Not for real riders!” Royal Enfield isn’t...

I’m riding through Pune’s winter streets, dodging potholes and autorickshaws, trying to decide if the Honda CB350 RS or Royal Enfield Hunter 350 deserves a permanent spot in my garage. I’ve clocked 500 km on each bike, but I’m not alone—this verdict is backed by...

I never planned to buy the Honda CB300R. I walked into the showroom for the CB300F but was left smitten by this lightweight neo-sports cafe racer. But six months and 4,500 km later, I’m that guy revving past Marine Drive, grinning like a kid. Was it worth ₹2.8 lakh?...

Owning a superbike in India was once reserved for the ultra-rich. High import duties made them expensive, forcing many riders to settle for lower-displacement alternatives. In the 2025 Union Budget, the Indian government slashed import duties on high-end motorcycles,...

I never thought I’d get this attached to a 125cc motorcycle. But after six months and 5,200 km of riding my TVS Raider 125 through Pune’s traffic, weekend getaways to Lavasa, and even a monsoon-drenched ride to Mumbai, this bike has surprised me. If you’re eyeing the...

As a motorcyclist who’s traversed India from the Himalayan passes to Kerala’s coastal roads, I’ve owned a Triumph Tiger Sport 660 (sport tourer) and a KTM 390 Adventure (ADV). Both bikes taught me one truth: There’s no “perfect” bike, only the right tool for the...

The CFMOTO 450SS is a budget sport bike that’s been turning heads since its debut. Priced at $5,499, it promises Ninja 400-like thrills without the premium price tag. But does it hold up after daily abuse, cross-country rides, and the occasional “I forgot to check the...

When I first saw it at the showroom, the design grabbed me instantly—sleek and modern, but with that classic Royal Enfield DNA. As someone who’s always admired bikes like the Triumph Speed 400, I wondered if the Guerrilla 450 could match up. After riding it for over...

I’ve owned both the KTM Duke 390 and Triumph Speed 400 in India. Let me tell you—this isn’t just about “which bike is faster.” It’s about what empties your pocket slower. From pothole repairs to surprise service bills, here’s the actual cost of loving these two...

Delhi’s roads are no joke—potholes that could swallow a car, traffic that’s more like a parking lot, and heat that can turn a ride into an endurance test. But then there’s the Triumph Speed 400—sleek, British, and deceptively affordable. Sounds perfect, right? After...

Let me start with a confession: I didn’t buy the Kawasaki Ninja 650 because I needed a bike. I bought it because I craved that adrenaline rush every time I thumbed the starter. But here’s the twist: owning this middleweight beast in India isn’t just about weekend...

Staring at a Kawasaki Ninja 650’s ₹8 lakh price tag feels like getting slapped by your wallet. Owning a Ninja 650 doesn’t have to break the bank. I’ve been there. Last year, I nearly sold my RE Classic 500 to afford a Ninja 650—until I cracked the code on reducing...
