ICBC and the RCMP are inviting motorcyclists to test their mettle on a closed-circuit course in the parking lot at the university’s North Vancouver campus.
Think you got what it takes to ride like a motorcycle cop?
The RCMP and ICBC are putting riders’ prowess to the test, at the North Shore Motorcycle Skills Challenge Saturday (June 11) in the parking lot of Capilano University’s North Vancouver campus.
North Vancouverite Michael Brennan, 57, took the challenge Saturday morning, saying the skills course made him “crazy nervous.”
“Was it the six or so RCMP officers watching me, or the other fellow
Vintage-styled modern bikes are an incredibly popular segment in the motorcycle world. Harley-Davidson lives to evoke its machines of the past. Japanese marques crank out modern interpretations of the famed “universal Japanese motorcycle.” Somewhere in America, right now, someone is in their garage hacking up a bike to build a vintage-style cafe racer.
One company really embraces vintage motorcycling more than all the rest, and it’s not just about mimicking classic style. The Janus Motorcycles experience is about as close as you can get to buying a new-old motorcycle in the modern day, and that’s just
Story has been updated with new pricing and preorder information. Quick note: ADVrider will be riding the new bike in Italy in mid-June, so look for an in-depth review soon.
Representing ADVrider.com, I recently took some of Energica’s street models on a short spin around New York City following the acquisition of the brand by EV-focused investment firm Ideanomics (IDEX). Thumbnail review: Energica makes three high-quality, high-performance electric motorcycle models that are as good if not better (especially performance-wise) than anything else out there. The only problem: with very limited production capabilities, they’ve only produced just over a thousand
The new Experia is touted as a “green tourer” but it sports an adventure bike aesthetic.
Story updated June 1 with pricing and pre-order information.
Italian electric motorcycle maker Energica, which was recently purchased by U.S.-based EV firm Ideanomics (IDEX), revealed a fourth model that is a departure from its current model line but is also a welcome addition.
Called the “Experia,” the new machine is being billed as an all-electric “touring” motorcycle, but it has a decidedly “adventure bike” bend to its style and accessories. Energica says it should be available in Autumn this year, starting
After my many years riding with Schuberth’s C3, C3 Pro, C4, and C4 Pro (and all the way back to the original Concept) motorcycle helmets, the German manufacturer of high-line head protection has introduced the all-new C5. Many readers know that Schuberth has been making helmets for motorsports (two- and four-wheels), industrial safety, firefighting, law enforcement, and the military for 90 years.In the face of competitors offering new helmet models rapidly, Schuberth has leaned on the C4 since 2017, and the C4 Pro from 2019, while slipstreaming improvements during its run. Schuberth’s website still offers the C3 Pro, which I
Cape York Motorcycle Adventures are bringing 15 CFMOTO 800 MT adventure-touring motorcycles on to their fleet to run luxury Cairns to Darwin and Cairns to Cape York tours, while their existing DR-Z400E enduro models will continue to do the more hard-core adventures.
Cape York Motorcycle Adventures is owned by Roy and Renae Kunda, with the business now in its 33rd year of operation. Roy, who did his first ride through the Cape in 1986, leads most of the guided tours while Renae keeps the business
In a recent interview with Goldmine magazine, JUDAS PRIEST singer Rob Halford — who has roared onstage astride a Harley-Davidson for the intro to “Hell Bent for Leather” for decades — explained how a motorcycle became a part of the band’s live act. He said: “There was a moment when we first had the song ‘Hell Bent For Leather’, and we’re at a club, somewhere in U.K., still making our sound happen in any venue we could play in. And we pulled up and there were bikers parked outside the venue, down the alley and stuff. I said out
