I Fell in Love With Motorcycles. But Could I Ever Love Sturgis?

November 6, 2021 sNawaWebs.ADV

My motorcycle journey started in May 2019, when Revel, an app-based “urban mobility” start-up, dumped a few hundred electronic mopeds into the gentrified regions of the outer boroughs. At the time, I was living in Queens, a half-mile outside the rental radius. Despite some vague sense that the scooters were bad — that they might represent creeping privatization in the lead-up to an infrastructure crisis (or something) — I soon found myself taking furtive strolls down into the app’s coverage zone. The Revels were humiliating to ride — with the sexless body style of a Chase A.T.M. — and yet

– Honda NT1100 revealed

– Gets Africa Twin engine

– Design is quite radical

Honda has finally unveiled their new big touring motorcycle – the NT1100. This tourer is based on the famous Africa Twin and yes, it does look a bit radical.

Honda says that this bike is for riders who wants comfort practicality and performance of a modern adventure bike but doesn’t want the intimidating nature of it and also the cost. So there’s a market for such bikes as they tend to offer bang for their bucks along with lots of pillion comfort.

The Honda NT1100 Is A Slimmed-Down Africa Twin For The Road

November 4, 2021 sNawaWebs.ADV

Big Red makes some of the more versatile touring motorcycles out there, and being a Japanese automaker, practicality is what it always strives for. Currently, we are witnessing a new spike of sports tourers, just like the SUV craze that hasn’t subdued among car-buyers. Honda’s counterparts have been in full swing with new desirable sports tourers like the Kawasaki H2 SX SE+, BMW S1000XR, KTM 1290 Super Duke GT, and the very new Suzuki GSX-S1000GT.

Honda has been lagging here and hasn’t churned out a worthy sports tourer since the ST1300 that ended production in 2012. It sure shines

If the those wide wings of cylinders don’t get your attention, the upswept fishtail mufflers will.

It’s the question or comment I got most often while riding BMW’s new R 18 cruiser, so let’s address it right off the top: Is the R 18 cruiser lineup Bavaria’s bid to take on Harley-Davidson (and Indian)? And if so, is the R 18 “BMW’s Harley” – something it was often accused of being while I was riding it. Answer One: Well, I guess so. Answer Two: No.

Let’s dig a little deeper. Back in the late 1990s, BMW took an

8 of the Best Adventure Motorcycles for Hunters

November 2, 2021 sNawaWebs.ADV

Not every hunter or angler needs a truck, SUV, or even a car, especially if they spend a majority of their time in the woods or on the water alone. I hunt and fish solo most of the time, and as long as the weather is cooperating, I’ll ride my motorcycle. Adventure bikes have become popular amongst many cross-country riders who also want to take their motorcycle off-road. They’re a perfect option for minimalist hunters and anglers (as long as you don’t need to haul huge amounts of meat home). If you haven’t ridden before, learning is easier than you

BMW have given their six-cylinder K1600 tourer family a big (and probably overdue) boost for 2022 with updated engines, improved suspension, LED lights, uprated music and, best of all, a massive, all-new 10.25in TFT dash.

Originally launched in 2011 the K16 initially wowed the world not only with its super-smooth, 160bhp performance (which made it far and away the fastest ‘full-dresser’), but also slick high tech including ESA suspension, adaptive lights which significantly raised the touring bike tech bar.

New BMW K 1600 mod… | Big tourer motorcycles are back!

October 31, 2021 sNawaWebs.ADV

Freshly announced today is the return of the BMW K 1600 range. Initially revealed back in 2010, the K 1600 range was initially put to market with the intentions of combatting the Honda Gold Wing, and with its release brought full premium touring capabilities to the roads.

It’s a segment that has seen an influx of new metal in recent months, most notably the Suzuki GSX-S1000 GT & upcoming Honda NT1100. Perhaps the surge of ‘staycationing’ has prompted manufacturers to ready their long-distance touring options for riders with full luggage sets and their +1s in tow.
