This Is Considered The Quietest Harley-Davidson Ever Made - SlashGear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The LiveWire all-electric motorcycle is the quietest model Harley-Davidson has ever produced. Rather than the deep rumble of the air-cooled V-twin engine inextricably linked with the brand, this electric bike emits a subtle whine that grows in intensity with increased acceleration. The sound is a major sonic departure from typical Harley-Davidson motorcycles, especially when you consider that the LiveWire doesn't have traditional gears, so there is a complete absence of shifting and the sounds a
4 Common Problems With Cylinder Deactivation - SlashGear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the more curious inventions of the automotive industry is something called cylinder deactivation. Essentially, when under light load, an engine will shut down some of its cylinders. When a driver is only placing a partial load on an engine, efficiency drops by up to 15%, according to research by engineers at the Brno University of Technology published in the journal Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews. This is because the amount of fuel being used just to keep the motor operating is
IMAX With Laser Vs. Regular IMAX: What's The Difference? - SlashGear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Many may recall a time when IMAX was mostly reserved for documentaries, with popular titles like "To Fly," "Grand Canyon: The Hidden Secrets," and "Everest."

This Mad Scientist Mechanic Actually Turbocharged A Ford Model T - SlashGear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
YouTube channel Merlins Old School Garage decided to combine a modern turbocharger with a Model T engine in an intriguing what-if scenario. The Ford Model T engine was special and was dramatically influential in America's perception of the automobile. However, this early motor is very basic compared to modern engine designs — a hand-cranked starter until well into its production life, a total of two forward gears and one reverse gear, gravity-fed fuel, and other components showcase just how far
What Does MFD Stand For In Boating? - SlashGear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before modern technology, seafaring was a complex affair. Navigation instruments like the backstaff, used centuries ago, utilized the stars to determine position. In order to calculate depth long ago, poles called sounding rods were lowered until they physically touched the ocean floor. Suffice it to say, vessel data used to be much less precise and somewhat open to interpretation. Fortunately, tools on modern vessels have advanced dramatically. Things like GPS, sonar, and radar provide a wealth
