Cake Reveals the Makka Polestar Edition

Just a few days ago, I posted an article about the new Cake Makka. Now there’s the Makka Polestar Edition.

Both Cake and Polestar are committed to an electrified, clean future of mobility, and this partnership that birthed the Cake Makka Polestar Edition makes perfect sense for both brands.

The bike is mostly just a fancy version of the Makka, but the tweaks to the model are notable. Let’s take a closer look.

Honda Is Auctioning Off Three Repsol CBR1000RRs for Charity

The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation’s Ride for Kids is a big thing that’s happening in September. And Honda is a sponsor, and now it is auctioning off three Repsol-edition CBR1000RR sportbikes.

The bikes are from Honda’s own private collection, and each has zero miles. These bikes will be auctioned through Iconic Motorbikes and the proceeds will go to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

The auction will happen from September 3- 10 and the ride will happen on September 12.

BMW Motorrad Reveals the Electric Concept CE 02

If you’re a young urbanite who loves all things two wheels, then you’re probably on board with the electrified future, at least BMW Motorrad’s Concept CE 02 assumes that.

The new concept bike from BMW is a sort of mashup of an e-bike, motorcycle, and scooter into one machine that’s designed to appeal to the next generation of riders.

This bike won’t blow away sportbikes on the road or cruise like a Harley, but that’s so far from the point. This is a new kind of electric motorbike.

7 Pieces of Motorcycle Gear on Sale for Labor Day You Won’t Want to Overlook

Labor Day weekend is upon us, and that means there are some good motorcycle gear sales out there.

I know summer is coming to an end and for some riders that means there’s not a whole ton of more good days for riding, but for myself and others who ride well into fall and winter, I suggest you take advantage of these sales.

So, without further ado, let’s get into it.

If you’re the kind of rider who wants to help the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, then listen up.

I’m late in announcing it, but if you use Rever, you can still participate.

Cake Reveals a New Bike, the Makka

Cake has a new bike in its lineup called the Makka. This new bike is billed as a true commuting machine, and it sets itself apart from the Kalk and the Ösa that the company already sells.

The Makka is the third real design coming from Cake, and it looks like a good, purpose-built machine.

It’s built for the urbanite who needs something better than an electric bicycle but doesn’t need some big motorcycle either.

What You Need to Know About Motorcycle Wraps

If you’re ready for a new look for your motorcycle, you might be thinking about motorcycle wraps.

Doing some kind of vinyl wrap on your motorcycle can be a really great way of enhancing it visually and getting your bike a fresh new look.

But are motorcycle wraps really the best way to go about doing that? Let’s take a closer look at this to help you decide if a wrap is right for you.

Andromeda Neowise Jacket Is Made from Non-Leather and Sustainable Fabrics

If you’re looking for a killer motorcycle jacket but don’t want to have something that’s actually leather, then the Andromeda Neowise Jacket is for you.

This retro-styled jacket is made of ultra-resistant polyethylene UHMWPE with a full Kevlar inner lining and Keprotec.

The jacket also comes with SAS-TEC Level 2 armor for the back, shoulders, and elbows. All told, this looks to be a great jacket.

Alpinestars Idol Jacket

There are plenty of great jackets out there, and the Alpinestars Idol Jacket is one of the great new options for you to choose.

It is a jacket styled on the classic bomber jackets. This textile jacket comes with quite a few great features.

Let’s take a closer look at this new motorcycle jacket.

Harley-Davidson Reveals the Arctic Blast Street Glide Special

The new Harley-Davidson Arctic Blast Street Glide is a limited edition release of the Street Glide Special.

Harley recently revealed the new version of the bike. This comes after the Pan America and the Sportster S, so as you can imagine, this bike has had its limelight stolen.

This new bike has a brand new colorway. It’s a unique white, light blue, and dark blue blend that to me looks really good.
