At the end of the week, I try to do a motorcycle news roundup. I wasn’t spot on for a Friday roundup the last couple of weeks, but this time around I was able to make it happen.

Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha are all already in the consortium, so it makes sense for Honda.
MIPS Releases Annual Report
