How Much Power Does the 2024 Triumph Speed 400 Make?
How Much Power Does the 2024 Triumph Speed 400 Make?
Triumph’s Speed 400 is the British manufacturer’s latest entry into the lightweight category. Designed in England but built in India, the Speed 400 costs just over $5,000. A recent price bump brings MSRP from $4,995 to $5,195. Its styling and design are inspired by the Speed Twin 1200, but the 400′s smaller engine, reduced curb weight, and lower price make...

Kove 800X Pro Preproduction First Ride
Kove 800X Pro Preproduction First Ride
Adventure bikes might be the best form of motorcycling—current market trends reflect this. The ADV segment has boomed in recent years as manufacturers continue to develop and produce new models while the riding public snaps them up. Every major OEM from Japan and Europe—even Harley-Davidson—offers at least one adventure bike. So for Kove, a small, relatively new manufacturer, it’s...

How Much Power Does the 2025 Indian 101 Scout Make?
Indian Motorcycle’s 101 Scout is the brand’s most performance-rich cruiser, edging out the Sport Chief in power, weight, and componentry. Indian updated the Scout platform for 2025 with a larger 1,250cc liquid-cooled engine, a new steel tube front frame, and an adjustable electronics suite. The Scout Classic, Scout Bobber, Super Scout, and Sport Scout receive different styling, but performance is...

2025 Husqvarna 801 Vitpilen First Ride Review
2025 Husqvarna 801 Vitpilen First Ride Review
When it comes to choosing a Husqvarna, you’re spoilt for choice these days thanks to the KTM-owned manufacturer’s habit of providing not just one but two variants of each new model. Should you opt for a single-cylinder 125 or 401, or this, the all-new twin-cylinder 801? Any way you go, you get a brace of options: Vitpilen or Svartpilen....

1,000 Miles on the 2024 Harley
1,000 Miles on the 2024 Harley
Coming down the Chiriaco Summit just south of Joshua Tree National Park, I could feel searing rays from the eastern sun raking my right flank like a row of hot needles. A quick glance at the Street Glide’s notebook-size touchscreen showed an ambient temp of 105 degrees—at 11:30 a.m. Still three hours to go.The choice to jump on Interstate...

2025 Royal Enfield Bear 650 First Ride Review
2025 Royal Enfield Bear 650 First Ride Review
Scramblers are often seen as streetbikes that compromise on-road performance for off-road style, and most of the time, that’s a pretty accurate description. Royal Enfield’s Bear 650, however, is promised to be more than a brown seat and some knobby tires. Compared to the INT 650, the Bear sees new wheel sizes, updated ergonomics, a taller subframe, updated suspension,...

This KLX line is designed as a recreational bike with an emphasis on low seat height, affordable pricing, and green-sticker designation.

2025 BMW R 1300 GS Adventure First Ride
2025 BMW R 1300 GS Adventure First Ride
Without BMW’s original GS there may never have been adventure bikes as we know them today. Sure, there were large dual sport or multipurpose bikes that preceded the R 80 G/S, but that was the motorcycle that most credit for creating what we now know as the ADV category. As has been the case since the original R 1150...

2025 Ducati Multistrada V4 S First Ride Review
2025 Ducati Multistrada V4 S First Ride Review
At face value, it appears Ducati has only mildly tweaked its Multistrada V4 S for 2025, which is why we arrived in Perugia, Italy, a few hours north of Rome, expecting a couple of easy few days on the classy adventure-tourer. However, it quickly became apparent that despite only mildly updating the Multi’s familiar looks, beneath the bodywork lies...

2025 Indian 101 Scout Review
Shakespeare references aren’t the first thing that typically come to mind when thinking about a motorcycle, but after a few weeks aboard the 2025 101 Scout, it’s hard not to consider Romeo and Juliet’s famous “What’s in a name?” question. If a rose, by any other name, smells just as sweet, then wouldn’t the 101 Scout, by any other...

Bosch Can Stop and Start Your Motorcycle Automatically
Bosch Can Stop and Start Your Motorcycle Automatically
I’m following a Toyota hatchback at Bosch’s Shiobara, Japan, proving ground with the adaptive cruise control set. My prototype Automatic Manual Transmission (AMT) equipped 2025 KTM Super Adventure S follows at a safe distance adjusting speed as the driver speeds up and slows down. This is nothing new; radar-based adaptive cruise control made it to production on the 2021...

2024 Honda Africa Twin Long
What makes a great adventure bike? Well, that’s about as loaded a question as there is in motorcycling. The class is so complex these days that there is literally a bike for every type of riding and rider. But there are a bunch of bikes that can just about do it all—ones that walk down the middle of the...

Kriega OS
When I started being intentional about upping my off-road adventure riding ability, I realized I had a lot of mental baggage about dropping the bike. It wasn’t just that I was afraid of damaging the motorcycle, it was more that I thought that falling over meant I wasn’t any good. After dropping motorcycles like it’s my job (well, I...

How Much Power Does the 2024 BMW R 1300 GS Make?
BMW practically invented the ADV class back in 1981. In German, “GS” stands for Gelände/Straße which loosely translates to terrain/street in English. More than 40 decades later, BMW’s philosophy of the GS remains the same: Produce a motorcycle capable of tackling any terrain over any amount of miles. The R 1300 GS does that better than any other BMW we...
