Moto Guzzi to Make a Street Version of the V85

Moto Guzzi’s V85 won’t be alone for long. A street-focused version is coming and nobody is mad about that.

Moto Guzzi now has an adventure bike called the V85. A lot of people are thrilled about it. Rightfully so. The bike looks like it’ll be a real winner, but Moto Guzzi isn’t going to stop there.

The company has plans to put out a street-focused version of the bike, according to Italian motorcycle magazine, Motociclismo.

It sounds like the company is making the most of the design, to me.

The Norton 650 Superlight Mission is the Lightweight TT

A twin tube chassis and tons of carbon fiber make the 650 Superlight, well, super light.

Norton isn’t joking around with its new offerings. It showed off the 650 Atlas in two trim levels, and it also has an all-new 650 Superlight, that should be a screaming-fast bike.

Norton designed it to compete at the highest level in the Lightweight TT at the Isle of Man.

It’s like a baby V4, which is what some are calling it.

Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire Electric Motorcycle Sounds Weird

The Harley LiveWire whirrs instead of rumbles and it’s kind of awesome.

For the record, I’ve always believed Harley’s path back to prominence wasn’t going to be through electric bikes. I don’t think the LiveWire will save the company.

I do, however, find something alluring about how freaking weird the electric motorcycle sounds in the video above.

The New Norton Atlas 650 Looks Awesome

The Norton Atlas 650 is all new, and it comes in two variants.

Norton has always made super-cool motorcycles, but the company’s bikes are usually high-displacement, high-dollar, and low-volume machines. With the all-new Norton Atlas 650, that changes a bit.

Both new versions of the Atlas 650 have a, you guessed it, 650cc engine. They come with a surprisingly affordable price tag.
