Keith, from Quad USA (located in Dallas, Texas, by the way) dropped us a line to let us know they were indeed under pressure to get ready for the Indy show so their website wasn’t up to snuff but soon will be. He also pointed out a post on the BMW Sport Touring forum where [...]

A comment on our post about flexible fuel motorcycles mentioned the MegaSquirt Electronic Fuel Injection kit which I had never heard of, so I thought I should check it out.
In my post, I mentioned how E85 ethanol is getting a lot of coverage these days and I was wondering if any motorcycles were capable of [...]

After all, if you’re riding a classic of any kind, you wouldn’t dress like you’re racing in this year’s MotoGP, kinda ruins the illusion. You get a [...]
In all of the coverage we’ve given to motorcycle powered cars we neglected to mention West Racing Cars. They have some great track cars powered by your choice of Kawasaki ZX10R or ZX12R engines and one Suzuki choice as well. The Kawasaki engines are purchased in the crate from Muzzy so you’re not running some [...]
