OneWheelDrive.Net - BMW K1200S Review

The gang over at OneWheelDrive.Net has posted a really well nice review of the new BMW K1200S and while I’m not the biggest Beemer fan anymore, I find it interesting that they’re comparing it in many ways to the ‘05 999. A really interesting read and further proof that OneWheelDrive.Net has their act together in […]

“Trail-Braking 101″

Just in case anyone missed, AngryBob over at MotorcycleBloggers.com wrote up a really nice bit onTrail-Braking a few days ago. I highly recommend anyone who has no idea what I’m yapping about (and even the folks who do ) to head on over and check it out. Well worth the read.

Dawn Of A New Ducati

5:00 AM - This Morning
It’s way to early to be awake and I’m a bit out of sorts right now. During the past several hours I simply have been unable to sleep very much. So many random thoughts have been running through my mind it’s hard to imagine that it’s already morning. Just about a […]

A Taste of The Democedici

Seems the Ducati Club of The Netherlands has posted an update to their Ducati Multimedia page which features a pretty awesome collection of Ducati related sound files. The most remarkable if not completely blood pumping is the Desmocedici wav file. Sounds like it’s part fighter jet and part Michael Schumacher trackday adventure…Can anyone say […]

MotoCreations Newest Beast

Seems that Mark Savory from MotoCreations has been hard at work on a new custom Monster. As some of you might recall, Mark made some noise last year during the Ducati Monster Challenge with his chopped monster. (See previous posts, “American Chopper meets Italian Muscle” and “LBMC Show: Mark Savorys MotoCreations Ride” for more BG)
