2009 Kawasaki ZX-6R vs. Triumph Daytona 675
Jun 15, 2009 - 4:31 PM - by admin

You've probably heard the phrase, the battle is won but the war isn't over. That little saying certainly could apply in the case of our 2009 Supersport Shootout. After assembling the current crop of middleweight supersport weaponry from the Big Four earlier this year, Kawasaki’s new-for-09 ZX-6R found itself atop the heap in our annual battle.

It wasn't an easy victory for the Kawasaki, as all the bikes in this class are excellent machines, separated by razor-thin margins in just about every respect. But in the end the ZX had just enough ingredients in the right combination to edge out the CBR600RR, GSX-R600 and R6.

2009 Naked Middleweight Comparison: Kawasaki ER-6n vs. Suzuki Gladius
May 22, 2009 - 11:38 AM - by admin

What brought you to motorcycling? Maybe you grew up riding 'cause your old man rode, so it was only natural you would, too. Or perhaps you came to the two-wheeled world a bit later in life, either out necessity for affordable transport or because a friend talked you into taking a ride on the back of their bike despite your previously having no interest in riding. You might even be one of the many recent moto virgins who finally reached a point in life where years of squirreling away enough discretionary coin finally granted access to two wheels.

Of the various paths that brought us to motorcycling, one common factor keeps us here: fun! The fun... [Read More]

Motorcycle Safety Tips
May 01, 2009 - 5:25 PM - by admin

May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, so we thought we'd get share some advice on safe riding.

Motorcyclists know how much skill is required in riding. You have to be aware of your bike, the road, the traffic around you, and most importantly, yourself, when you get behind the handlebars.

But even the safest, most experienced riders can still make mistakes. That’s why we’re presenting a series of articles on motorcycle safety, because you can never be too safe.

2009 Literbike Shootout
Apr 27, 2009 - 10:24 AM - by admin

It's been nearly 12 years since I began working as a full-time motojournalist, and I get wistful for those simpler days. Back then, the literbikes (CBR900RR, ZX-9R, GSX-R1100 and YZF1000) were separated by nearly 100 pounds of weight and huge power disparities, and ergonomics ranged from racetrack refugee to something we now call sport-tour-y. Even a neophyte motojourno could pick a clear winner.

But today, we're stuck in a world of finely honed and fully featured literbikes whose level of diversity is amazingly insignificant. They all haul ass around a racetrack, chassis geometry distinctions are measured in... [Read More]

2009 Supersport Racetrack Shootout
Mar 10, 2009 - 11:30 AM - by admin

It's a reasonable thing for most enthusiasts visiting this illustrious webzine to expect our reviews of motorcycles to be conclusive. After all, when we factor in the talents of our current crew of "volunteer staff", our collective experiences span nearly a century of riding and getting to know just about every make and model of bike available for the past 30 years. So plucking out the best should be as easy as getting out of bed, right?

Oh, if only it were so easy. Sometimes even the pros are left scratching their noggins like a small party of confused chimps. Such is the case with the 2009 crop of Japanese Supersports.
