Re: This Week: 2016 Royal Enfield Classic Desert Storm
Kind of cool...has EFI, a kick starter (which all bikes should have), decent power around town and should be highway-capable if necessary, and should also run on just about any grade of gas. Rear suspension travel is a bit short, but the sprung seat will help that. I give it a "cool". I just retire...

Not really all-new, just more of a reconfigured bolt. I love the idea but they should have made a specific dirt-tracker frame rather than trying to make a cruiser look like a dirt-tracker in my opinion.

Re: This Week: 2017 Victory Octane
After all the hype and teasers about project 156 we get a rebadged Scout? I like the Scout but where is the suped up standard that was going to set Victory on a new direction? Probably a decent bike (still with the crappy little tank though). Huge disappointment following the hype. Therefore fail.

Re: 2016 Ducati 959 Panigale - Coolness Factor = 79.6%
Well it wasn't all THAT long ago that the top of the line Ducati Superbikes were 851, 888, then 916cc. Now the mid-range bike has a larger displacement and nearly twice the power of the old masters. Seems a little silly.
Nice bike though.

Re: This Week: 2016 Indian Scout Sixty - Vote Now
I kind of fail to see the point as well. The original (well the NEW original from 2014), is a cool bike with too small of a gas tank that both my wife and I got to demo this past summer. The sleeved down engine in the same bike sounds like it is just as expensive to produce and it is nearly as expen...

Re: This Week: 2016 Triumph Speed 94R - Vote Now
First, there's nothing modern about that 1050 motor. That design is OLD. Second, if there really wanted to invoke the spirit of the old Speed Triples, they'd go back to the round headlights. Triumph (like many other companies) is trying to squeeze a few more dollars out of an old design through cos...

Re: 2016 Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin - Coolness Factor = 78.8%
I can't believe that I missed this! I like the bike and after trying a lot of "real"adventure riding on my Multistrada (230km of gravel on Sat alone), I need something much more dirt oriented but still able to tour effectively on pavement too. This bike looks pretty great. The wheels are the correct...

You take your chances on that road in September or any other month for that matter. Ive been caught up there in a snow storm in July and even if it is warm and sunny down below you can find ugliness up top. There are some pics in the first few pages of my blog (link in my sig) if you are interested....

Re: 2015 Yamaha Super Tenere - Coolness Factor = 76.2%
I'm late to the party on this one but Yamaha is still milking success they had in the Dakar in the 70s and 80s? Bit of a stretch don't you think?
I hope this thing has moved on from there!
Now to me at least, that 660 looks awesome and much more like the real deal.

It's only in prototype form but the pictures are out there. The KTM 390 Adventure looks like it will be a good one. After being blown away by the 390 Duke I am not sure how it couldn't be awesome.
