Tamburini’s rolling artworkSince yesterday’s Craigslist quickie was sold way too fast, it’s time for something completely different. Also, an Angel visited Facebook and suggested we share it with the community. Today we bring you a zero-mile 2005 MV Agusta F4. This color scheme and design could not look more Italian. Mike covered one of these…
2024 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 40th Anniversary Edition – In the crateWell, since it is Christmas, we figured we would post a present from today that honors the past that we all cherish. How rare is this? We do not yet know. This model is one of the anniversary editions, but not one of the limited…
More a “sporty” bike or a “sportbike-inspired” bike than an outright sportbike, today’s Honda GB500 Tourist Trophy offers looks inspired by classic British machines of the 50s and 60s like the Norton Manx and Velocette Thruxton, along with a characterful, reliable, and durable Honda single-cylinder engine and modern running gear.

The MV Agusta F4, often cited as the most beautiful motorcycle ever made, was the instrument that brought the legendary brand back to life. And it should be no surprise that it was designed by legendary Massimo Tamburini, the genius behind the other “most beautiful” bike design, the Ducati 916. There is a ton of…
No matter how many calendar pages flip or what new technology comes out of the showroom, Ducati’s 996 will always be a “must have” experience. Today’s example shows moderate miles, new belts and Pirellis, re-freshed cosmetics, some nice updates, even a spare biposto seat and subframe. The 996 was an almost automatic successor to…
