Motorcycles – So Many Choices

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.

Types of Motorcycles

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.

Motorcycle Brands

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 Engine Size

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.

Motorcycles and Prices

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 Sale of Public Land: A 250 Million Acre Disaster for America

A significant concern has emerged regarding the potential sale of public land, vast tracts of it, across the United States. It encompasses over 250 million acres, stretching from the arid Southwest to the rugged Alaskan frontier. That’s 40% of public land in the country. Just a reminder, it belongs to all of us.

These are the nation’s shared natural resources, critical habitats, and recreational grounds. Adventure and off-road riders should be pissed, hunters, fishermen, campers, and every goddamn American should too.

Check Out This Custom 1948 Harley-Davidson Panhead

Picture this: a flat-out, custom-built contraption, a 1948 Harley-Davidson Panhead, but this beauty’s got a secret, a heart ripped right out of a wartime flying machine.

A fellow with grease under his fingernails and dreams in his head, a real mechanical wizard, decided he wasn’t content with the usual kick-start dance. Sean Jackson, from Competition Distributing, is a mechanical enthusiast and vintage motorcycle lover. He built this beauty.

A New CFMoto 500SR Voom Coming Soon. Will it Come to the US?

The CFMoto 500SR Voom. That’s a terrible name for what is potentially a super cool bike, a sportbike that is stirring up memories of those wild and wonderful 400cc rockets from the late ’80s and early ’90s.

The Voom’s got a look that’ll make your heart skip a beat, with a curved front and those “retro” round headlights that are actually ram-air intakes. Sneaky, right? And under the sleek bodywork, she packs a punch with a 78-hp, 499cc inline-four engine.

It’s the Superveloce 1000 Ago, a tribute to a legend named Agostini, and they’re only making 83 of ’em. Just 83! That’s rarer than a perfect alignment of stars on a summer night.

This old BMW R100RS, a machine of forgotten grandeur, has found new life in the hands of Kenji Heianzan at Minami Motorcycle, a quiet corner of Tokyo where custom bikes of a special quality are born.

Kenji, a craftsman with a unique vision, isn’t as interested in gleaming new parts or factory perfection. No, his canvas is the discarded, the forgotten, the parts that whisper tales of roads long traveled. He breathes life into what others cast aside, fashioning cafe racers that hum with an outcast spirit all their own.

The Suzuki GSX-8T and GSX-8TT Are Coming

Word’s come down the wire, folks, that Suzuki’s got a couple of new irons in the fire for the 2026 riding season. Seems the California Air Resources Board, they’re the ones who keep tabs on these things, has given the nod to two fresh machines: the GSX-8T and its kin, the GSX-8TT.
