The faster it goes, the more Simon likes it. Cars, motorcycles, computers, rockets... it doesn't matter. He's an avid sim racer (it keeps him sane during Calgary's 6-month off-season) and is thinking it's time to upgrade his ride. Then again, isn't it always?
We all know how tempting a twisty series of corners can be when riding. You and the bike in perfect...

Review Summary The 2023 Suzuki GSX-8S is a perfectly acceptable sport naked bike for city usage with occasional corner carving expeditions, and I think would make for a great first bike as well as a commuting bike. Issues arise in the OEM tires being very numb and not giving good...

To those that follow the news about new and exciting motorcycle technologies, crashing is often the furthest thing from one’s mind.

It’s fairly hard these days to find a movie playing in theaters that doesn’t have some kind of motorcycle involved. It could be background action, it could be a character’s bike, and in some movies, it could even be the entire star of the show. No matter what, however, there...

For almost as long as motorcycles themselves have existed, two American companies have waged a silent battle that we only truly hear when the V-twins that power their bikes fire up. Both companies started making their V-twin bikes in 1903, and were the only two major American manufacturers to survive...

When someone mentions Italian motorcycles, the first image that goes through pretty much everyone’s head is that of a sleek, powerful supersport carving corners like a scalpel. If you ask the scooter crowd about Italian bikes, you’ll get your ear gnawed off about Piaggio and Vespa. These are two extreme...
