Today being both Friday the 13th and with 12 Days to to Christmas it’s a weird Merrily Day indeed! Welcome to a Motorcycle Christmas at Total Motorcycle and starting it off is our Interactive Friday: It’s a White Wall Christmas! (puny right?).
Jack Frost made sure it happened just like that this week with our #1 topic being White Wall Tires! Do they look cool on motorcycles? So we had to put up 3 of our submitted entries out of several dozen to post on our front page. Love white walls or not, they do look great, on certain bikes and certain colors. And if you want to hate on white walls, well, we even had a sportbike with white walls posted! Yes, white walls on a sport bike. A real head scratcher, isn’t it?
We had a lot of great topics this week and I want to thank everyone for taking the time to submit their photos and opinions as well as getting involved as we freeze in the winter cold. Speaking of freezing in the winter, it hit -46.4°F where I am this week on Wednesday. Darn, I miss the heat of Texas badly y’all!
Also if you have visited TMW this week you would have noticed we upgraded our servers and had a lot of rough patches along the way. I’m really sorry about that poor user experience there, we are hammering out all the issues in the background and we are down to the last 1%. I do wish to thank my host, Idleserv.net who has been a solid 100% reliable provider and offers amazing support for the last 20 years! I don’t know where I’d be without them.
Also, lots of new 2025 motorcycles added this week too to our review guides!
Yes, a White wall Christmas. Man, sometimes I’m too much even for myself. Thanks for putting up with my humor for the past 25 years.
Let’s have a Christmas Top 5 countdown of the most popular topics there Santa Claus…
#1 Topic This Week
Interactive Friday: It’s a White Wall Christmas! Rider Poll… White Wall Tires! ⚪️🏍️⚪️ Do they look cool on motorcycles?😎 YES or NO? Bonus: Have you ever owned a bike with white walls on it🤣
With 46 photos submitted, it was our #1, although very close to #2. Glad to see everyone’s awesome bikes and opinions on this one! Quite the controversy and more opinions both ways than I thought with putting White Walls on a motorcycle!!
Thank you to HenceNoGameShow @HenceNoGameShow, Jemel Daughtcalm @JDaughtcalm, john havens @mrdiesel2000 for the images used in today’s featured image.
#2 Topic This Week
What is your favorite engine size? 🏍️ Is it 250cc? 500cc? 750cc 800cc? 900cc? 1000cc? or even the big 1800cc or 2300cc?
Everyone has a favorite engine type, but what about size? My personal favorite is a 750cc, as it does everything AND I get to shift lots without it being too annoying.
As I said in the post; I guess I could have said “how big do you like it” but that’s a different site than @TotalMotorcycle!! LOL.

Thursday Motorcycling Fun! When you think of the 1980’s do you remember the BMW K1?
What color would you get?
I am this OLD, I remember when they used totally radical color schemes on bikes like the K1. The 1980’s motorcycles were quite the time for motorcycle graphics, weren’t… pic.twitter.com/0SdNe7pJ0R

Do we need more RETRO styled motorcycles? Like this BMW R18 with a 1930’s aluminum airplane flair?
