You've probably heard the phrase, the battle is won but the war isn't over. That little saying certainly could apply in the case of our 2009 Supersport Shootout.

2009 Triumph Thruxton Review |
|
May 14, 2009 - 10:13 AM - by DiscoStew

For a lot of motorcycle enthusiasts there’s something romantic about bikes from the “good ol’ days.” Generations of riders grew up with names like Norton, BSA, Indian, Ariel, BMW, Harley-Davidson, and a whole lot more. Many of these brands bring back memories of simpler times.
Machines like the Commando, Gold Star, Square Four or the R90S, weren’t cluttered with complicated wiring harnesses or layers of bodywork. Constant-velocity or slide carbs, points ignition systems and a kick-start were about all it took. To be fair, th... [Read More]

How Well Do You Know Your Motorcycle?
Getting to know your bike as well as you can still makes a lot of sense. Learning how things work and what systems or components need the most attention will at least reduce your bike's chances of a premature failure and could also prevent a crash.

2008 Benelli Tre1130K Review
For some riders it's not enough to ride just any bike. The cookie-cutter sportbike or sport-tourer no longer satisfies. Can't bankroll a Confederate Hellcat and still want a modicum of comfort and utility? We may have your ticket: the Tre1130K.
