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 winds of change blow through the motorcycle world, and sometimes, they carry a whisper of what’s no longer coming ashore. KTM has, with a quiet nod, pared down its American lineup.
For a while there, we saw the 790 Duke, a sharp street scalpel, and the 790 Adventure, a capable wanderer, gracing the virtual showrooms. But now, like a desert mirage, they’ve simply… faded from the U.S. website.

This is “Anet 157,” a custom Triumph Scrambler 900, brought to life by the skilled hands at Tamarit Motorcycles for a fellow named Luiscar.
Luiscar, a man of patience and purpose, opted for the 900 over the bigger 1200, knowing full well he wanted some coin left over for a proper transformation. He admired its grit, its style, and its readiness for both the asphalt ribbons and the dusty trails.

This is a dirt bike that is a finely tuned scalpel, honed for the cutthroat dance of the dirt.
They say you can’t improve on perfection, but Triumph’s engineers, bless their determined souls, clearly didn’t get the memo. This quarter-liter brawler, a beast that’s already been sniffing podiums in the brutal arenas of Supercross and MXGP, has been given a good going-over for the new season.
Continue reading “Take a Look at the 2026 Triumph TF 250-X”The road of invention, my friends, is a bumpy one, full of twists and turns, and sometimes, a dead end that looks mighty final.
Such was the tale of Energica, that Italian outfit with dreams of electric fire, building two-wheeled wonders like the Ego and Eva Ribelle, silent rockets meant to stir the soul, not just get you to the grocery store.

At the grand Harley-Davidson Homecoming, where the very air usually vibrates with V-twin symphony, LiveWire pulled back the curtain on a pair of electric whispers that just might redefine the trail ahead.
These two-wheeled notions – a street scrambler and a dirt-loving trail bike – are lean, agile, and packing a punch roughly equivalent to a 125cc gasoline engine. Think of them as urban sprites or woodland fairies, silent and swift.
Continue reading “LiveWire New Bikes: Two New Models”Alright, now we’ve got a truly special machine to talk about. This is “Tsurugi,” a custom BMW R100/7, a ten-year anniversary build by Motor Force, and let me tell you, she caused quite a stir at The Bike Shed Show in London.
Mikio Yamada, the man behind this metal marvel, poured countless hours into transforming a humble R100/7 donor from 2022 into this singular creation.

The grand old dame of American iron is making it a little easier for good people to throw a leg over a brand-new hog thanks to some summer discounts, and that’s news worth shouting through the nearest chrome pipe.
Continue reading “Summer Discounts on Select Harley-Davidsons”The rumble of a new engine echoes down the highway of life, and Suzuki, bless their hearts, has uncorked a pair of beauties for the open road: the 2026 GSX-8T and GSX-8TT.
I mentioned these were coming not long ago, and they’re here. These bikes are an ode to the golden age of riding, with a wink and a nod to the future. The GSX-8T is a handsome motorcycle, and the GSX-8TT is its sportier sibling.
Continue reading “Suzuki Launches the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT and They’re Gorgeous”Here’s the Thunderbike RockSTar, a custom machine born from the bones of a Harley-Davidson Low Rider ST.
