Otherwise, I want to be able to walk into a bar, attend a meeting, or go out on a date, and be perfectly comfortable and looking fresh and fashionable in my threa...

Some of the best things in life are passed down from father to son. For me, one of the greatest gifts I was given from my father was my love for motorcycles. However, all that can be taken away if one neglects their health. For this reason, it's important that men get checked for prostate cancer. Second to heart disease, Prostate cancer is the sec...

August 05, 2016  •  Leave a Comment
There is no shortage of custom Triumph Bonneville builds out there in the world but Mike Zehner’s flat track inspired bike by Richard Pollack of Mule Motorcycles is simply too good not to showcase. In its stock form, the Triumph Bonneville is a bit of a pig. It’s a beautiful bike but it lacks the power and handling of a performance motorcycle. Gra...

We all have bucket lists. Places we wish to travel or things we want to do in life before we pass on. High on my own list was a trip to italy. I envisioned myself simply enjoying delicious food, drinking wine, and taking in the countryside via motorcycle or scooter. Nothing major. Last week I got that chance---if only for a day---and it nothing sho...

A Month with the 2016 Kawasaki Z800 - Full Bike Review

January 19, 2016  •  Leave a Comment
Naked bikes/streetfighters are svelte, sexy, aggressive, fast, and oh so much fun in the city and back roads. Primed for wheelies when hopping on any freeway or jumping off the line at a stop light (not recommended, but easy to engage), nimble and perfect for splitting lanes during times of congestion, and delightful in the canyons or on the track...

Living (and Dying) with the Royal Enfield Continental GT - Full Bike Review

December 03, 2015  •  Leave a Comment
There is no denying that cafe racers continue to trend in the United States' major urban areas. Cruisers still dominate overall sales, but you can't throw a rock in Los Angeles, New York or San Fransisco without hitting a Bonneville, vintage CB, or BMW.

November 24, 2015  •  Leave a Comment
It’s 4pm, 92 degrees, and I'm in 3rd gear barreling down a dirt road at 70 mph somewhere in California's Apple Valley. The All Wheel Symmetrical drive on my Impreza is fully engaged as I loosely skate along the arid surface. Minimal inputs keep me in control. More aggressive inputs force controlled drifts through a couple of corners. I figure befor...
