The world of motorcycles is a robust one. There’s a motorcycle designed for pretty much every use out there. The companies selling bikes are trying to appeal to every area of the market from the folks who love to cruise to the racers to the adventurers.
Then there’s the custom bike scene. Geniuses, craftsmen, artists take motorcycles and turn them into rolling pieces of art.
I try to cover a little bit of it all. From the new bikes rolling off the production lines at the various motorcycle manufacturers to the littlest of custom shops and individuals tinkering around in their sheds.
Here are the main types of motorcycles I typically write about on this site.
Note that this isn’t an exhaustive list, and the article linked above about the different types of motorcycles will explain the full picture.
The fun doesn’t stop with the various types of motorcycles. There are also tons of brands that sell each type of motorcycle. I’ve written an article on the different motorcycle brands out there, and that should give you a pretty clear idea of what you’ll find.
Motorcycle type and the different brands matter a ton, but I often find myself and other riders classifying motorcycles by their engine size or displacement.
This is typically how the industry categorizes motorcycles. You’ll see a 250cc class, a 600cc class, etc. To learn more, check out my article on the various engine sizes out there in the world of motorcycles.
Lastly, I want to talk about the price of motorcycles. Everyone has to work in a budget, and you can buy a nice bike for very little money, but you can also spend a ton.
Price is a big deciding factor, and I would hope you take it into account. Here are my thoughts on motorcycles and their prices.
Below are the latest articles on various motorcycles.
The Bimota KB4RC is proof the company never does anything boring—part cafe racer art, part engineering flex, and entirely lust-worthy.
The Bimota machine is a cocktail of Italian craftsmanship and Japanese muscle, blending a hand-assembled chassis with Kawasaki’s snarling 1,043cc inline-four. That’s 140 horses wrapped in a lightweight frame, tuned not just for speed but for sheer riding pleasure.

Once a promising name in the EV world, now another tombstone in the growing graveyard of electric bike companies. Lack of funding, dwindling sales, or just bad business—take your pick, but the result is the same. Now the auction of Energica is happening.
Energica threw in the towel last October, unable to pay off its creditors or secure a financial lifeline. Now, the whole operation is up for grabs, set to be auctioned off to the highest bidder.

Their new Premium Manufacturer’s Warranty isn’t just a handshake and a promise—it’s a 4-year, no-cost safety net for select models, covering the Norden 901, Norden 901 Expedition, Svartpilen 801, and Vitpilen 801. That means four years of adventure, backed by Husqvarna’s commitment to quality.
Unlike your typical warranty, this one stays with the bike, making secondhand Husqvarna buyers just as lucky as the first owners.

Thanks to some fresh EPA paperwork, we now have proof: the R 1300 R, R 1300 RS, and R 1300 RT are on their way for 2026. That’s a naked roadster, a faired sport-tourer, and a full-dress tourer, all borrowing from the GS’s playbook—whether they’ll get the same 145-horsepower punch remains to be seen.

It’s got a history that stretches way back to 1922 when it first rolled out as a big, sturdy bike meant for long rides and sidecar duties. This wasn’t just any bike; it was the kind that could haul police gear or take you on a cross-country adventure without breaking a sweat.

But like any good story, there’s always a comeback, and the Indian Chief has had its share of those too. Today, it’s a symbol of classic American motorcycling, still turning heads and winning hearts.

For years, American riders watched from across the Atlantic as Honda rolled out some of its best bikes—only to keep them locked away in European showrooms. But patience, as they say, is a virtue, and it’s finally paying off.
Three of Honda’s most anticipated motorcycles are heading to the U.S.: the NT1100 sport-tourer, the CB750 Hornet middleweight streetfighter, and the CB1000 Hornet SP. This was rumored before, but now it’s official.
