Cruiser Needed! / Buddy, Can You Spare A Bike?

Posted on By admin

I was talking to a friend in Germany who is in the motorcycle industry, and he told me about a ride he and a couple of his colleagues had done on his company’s big cruisers. The Germans call these kinds of bikes “Dickschiffe” which, you may be disappointed to learn, does not mean what it immediately appears to. It means “fat ships”.

They had ridden their Dickschiffe into backcountry Poland, partly to get some idyllic rural photos. He said that the reception from the locals had been outstanding: they all wanted to know just what on Earth these two-wheeled monsters

Ride1Up Cafe Cruiser 28 mph electric bike review: Comfort for two riders!

Posted on By admin

It’s a bit ironic that California-based electric bike maker Ride1Up’s name is now antithetical to its newest model, the Cafe Cruiser.

Arch Motorcycle Ramps Up Production Of Sporty 1s Cruiser

Posted on By admin

Arch Motorcycle has made a name for itself with bespoke designs, big-bore V-twins, even bigger price tags. Back at EICMA 2017, the California-based brand presented its KRGT-1 production model, Method 143 prototype, and Arch’s second production bike—the 1s. After five years in development, Arch is ready to take the sporty new cruiser to the production line.

The 2017 1s concept featured mid-controls, aerodynamic bodywork, a single-sided swingarm, and a model-specific up-swept exhaust. Those components remain, but Arch fills in the rest of the details with a full spec sheet. S&S Cycle still supplies the 124ci (2,032cc), 45-degree V-twin, but Arch
