To be a crotch rocket, a bike has to have a riding position which is excruciatingly painful for the rider.
Although we have considerable control over how we age, we do not have complete control. I.e., some things are beyond our control, but I figure we...
Actually, I cheated a bit. I live in Albuquerque, NM. In 2009, when I was only 71, I took a trip on my VFR to Savannah, Georgia. On the way...
In less than one year I'll be 80 and I'm still riding. I see no reason to stop.
I don't want to lose weight. I'd insert my photo to see if anyone thinks I should lose weight, but I can't figure out how to insert it.
So some people think that 50 is to olde to ride a motorcycle? How absurd! I'm 73 now and learned to ride when I was 68. Of course I was the...
For dual-clutch transmissions to be acceptable on motorcycles, the throttle response at low speeds will have to be much smoother than it is on...

On trips, I consistently get a bit over 44 mpg with my 2006 VFR. The weight of the 2010 "VFR" probably isn't a problem one the highway. However,...
A tourer, with a smaller gas tank and probably poorer fuel mileage? I think not!!
I'm not objecting to the new "VFR." What I do object to is discontinuing the VFR 800. In Sept 2009, I took a 5,500 mile trip on my 2006 VFR...
I don't remember what kind of bike she had. Apparently she had turned the key to the accessory position; she also forgot to take the keys out....
On the highway with my 2006 VFR 800 ABS, I CONSISTENTLY average a little more than 44 mpg. Even with my Suzuki SV 650 ABS, I get better mileage...
I also wonder about the slipper clutch. Why is it needed? It doesn't take a PhD to understand that a smooth downshift can be executed merely by...
