The Touring Bike Owners Keep Riding Long After Everyone Else Trades In (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Travel on a motorcycle has never been quite so compelling. With the rise and rise of the ADV segment, many riders have discovered the advantages of these dual-purpose machines. Unfortunately, the advantages can pale in comparison to all the compromises you need to make. Touring bikes, on the other hand, are quite literally designed from the ground up to get ridden across the country. Only some of these make sense in the long-term, though, and a certain Yamaha does that well. By creating an accou
The Motorcycle That Explains Why Suzuki Still Matters (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At one point in time, Suzuki was at the top of the world. Well, at least in motorcycling circles, with the fastest production motorcycle as well as a host of other great sport bikes in the stable.

So, while these bikes offer an impressive array of travel features, they are not exactly the most versatile motorcycles on the market.

The Motorcycle That Quietly Defines Yamaha's Philosophy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Research a bit, and you'll find that Yamaha’s corporate philosophy centers around Kando. This Japanese word roughly translates to a feeling that moves you. In the context of what Yamaha wants customers to experience, it is “a feeling of deep satisfaction and intense excitement,” which also ties in with the brand’s “Revs Your Heart” slogan. Rider engagement and value are naturally the two key characteristics that are baked into every model. Thus, all of its bikes try to follow that to the core, b
