BMW GS 1200 & 1200 Adventure Test
The Magnificent Seven…. Letting the big GS drive the rear wheel without any throttle application, one hand covering the clutch, I watched ex Cycle World Chief David Edwards hit the ground in a split second just in front of me. Breathing deeply, fighting the anxiety welling up inside, the rear wheel slid sideways as I [...]
2010 Triumph Thunderbird on Test
Rumbling around the city of Charlotte late at night to avoid the oppressive heat of the day late this summer, a myriad of colored lights dance and play in the seamless chrome of the sculptured, headlight before flowing along the seamless gas tank. Unchecked air flows across the wide, chrome handlebars, and the rhythmic cadence of [...]
2010 Star Stratoliner Deluxe
It doesn’t seem possible that five years have passed since I rolled out of the working class city of Portland, Oregon, in the saddle of the new Star Roadliner. Riding a Yamaha that wasn’t a Yamaha, well not by name anyway, and riding a cruiser with real performance, handling and braking, it was anexciting day. [...]
BMW K1200S
While not really an all-new motorcycle, the 2010 K1300 is based on BMWs previous K1200S, the larger engine capacity and multiple upgrades ensure this isn’t just a make over of last year’s model, even if it appears almost identical to the untrained eye. The upper fairing section is slightly narrower; the cockpit trim is new, [...]
2010 Kawasaki Concours
There’s no denying the impact Kawasaki made on the sport-touring world when they introduced the new Concours 14 just two short years ago. Ballistically fast, thanks to the lightly revised 1352cc ZX 14 power plant lurking under its’ slick, stylish skin, the new Concours took the performance envelope in this class and ripped it up. [...]
Down at the Crossroads, A review of the new Victory Touring bike
Settling into the sculpted and surprisingly comfortable stock seat on the Victory Crossroads, I crack the throttle and the 106-cubic-inch (1731cc) 50 degree V-twin motor responds with immediate power and the bike almost jumps forward. Quick and nimble is not quite what you expect from such a big touring cruiser like the Crossroads but satisfying [...]
Kawasaki Voyager 1700, Road Comfort 101
Photos by Adam Campbell Story By Neale Bayly Riveted in the moment, breathing slowly, trying to absorb the intensity of Mother Nature while buzzing on my man made mechanical steed, I have attained my own motorcycle nirvana. Rolling out of Lone Pine, California, as the sun lights the gleaming white snow on Mount Whitney two [...]
The Big Z-Kawasaki Z1000 Road Test
By: Neale Bayly It’s easy for me. I’ve been wearing naked standard tinted glasses since I watched old KZ900s and GS1000s roaming the earth in the late ‘70s. Personally graduating to a Laverda 1200 by the early ‘80s, after a spotty youth in England on smaller displacement dual-purpose bikes, my path to man hood also [...]
