One logical result of freestyle motorcycle riding is a lot of bent motorcycles and broken plastic (over and above the broken bones). Drop your sportbike one time and you can expect to pay hundreds of dollars for new parts if you want to return your motorcycle to pristine condition.
The other day on Superbikes on SpeedTV, [...]

A few months ago I mentioned what I called affordable classic motorcycles and said motorcycles come and go from the hot sheets of the collectors. If you have one that comes to their attention, you might make a lot of money but if you buy with that intention, you could get burned and not enjoy [...]

Scanning the October issue of Cycle World, I came across a short [...]
