National Cycle’s VStream Low

National Cycle’s VStream Low

You see guy’s on baggers riding around with “blade” windshields and you wonder just how much wind could those be deflecting away from your piehole and noggin. Well, we got a chance to find out for ourselves when National Cycle sent us their VStream...
WTF! — It’s a Uni

WTF! — It’s a Uni

That’s right — a one-wheeled motorcycle. There are a few modernized, electric versions of these running around, but this one looks like it’s got some, shall we say, history.  And that includes racing! Although, it wouldn’t qualify for the...
Weimers Diner and Donuts – Sturgis, SD

Weimers Diner and Donuts – Sturgis, SD

Riding dirt through the Black Hills is bound to leave you hungry. And while the biker throngs of the Sturgis Rally have yet to descend here, the big places like One-Eyed Jacks and the Knuckle Saloon might still seem overwhelming. Especially when all you might want is...
Kawasaki KZ 650C

Kawasaki KZ 650C

Time for a bit of nostalgia. This Kawasaki was the first bike our publisher ever did 100 mph on. And that was with a passenger! The 650s were made between 1976 and 1983, and its 652 cc engine featured a double overhead camshaft with two valves per cylinder, and a five...

Black Hills National Forest – South Dakota

If you still haven’t planned your summer vacation this riding season, you can head to the Black Hills National Forest, and a trip to the Sturgis Rally doesn’t even have to be on the agenda. With over 500 miles of trail going through mixed forest...
A Multitool Works Multi-Wonders

A Multitool Works Multi-Wonders

No toolkit is complete without a multitool. And when it comes to multitools, there are really only three manufacturers worthy of consideration – Gerber, Leatherman and Victorinox. You can find others that are cheaper, but these three have some of the widest...
M1C Helmet Lights You Up

M1C Helmet Lights You Up

Yes, you’re reading that correctly – helmets with LEDs. And it’s not some gimmicky customization feature. This is a real attempt at making you more visible at night when most cagers have a hard enough time seeing other cagers. The good folks at M1C...
Triumph Tiger XCx

Triumph Tiger XCx

(This review first ran on July 8, 2015) Sometimes, getting to demo a bike for review is like riding a bagger across the Sahara — you can try it, but it’s probably not going to happen. We have to work it in when we can, convince a dealer to let us get on...
Sanford’s Grub and Pub – Casper, WY

Sanford’s Grub and Pub – Casper, WY

If you take us up on riding in the Poison Spider OHV area west of Casper, you’re going to want to find a place to eat. We hunted around and since we’re a sucker for a name that actually says what it is, we stopped off on the link to Sanford’s Grub...
Poison Spider OHV Area – Wyoming

Poison Spider OHV Area – Wyoming

Time for some dirt! Yeah, baby! How about a 200 acre park outside Casper, Wyoming that offers a wide open area consisting of a large open gravel pit, rocky trails, steep hill climbs and some obstacle courses scattered around just for fun. Since the area is open to all...
WTF! – Big Stacker

WTF! – Big Stacker

We were almost at a loss for words on this one. WTF! indeed. Then as we looked closer we realized there is at least a nice seat on the thing. But those tanks marked “Horsepower” could mean anything! Or maybe this one’s a pig shit powered bike from...
