Soon to celebrate three years since it was first introduced on the market, the Kawasaki Ninja e-1 ABS is making a comeback in the Japanese manufacturer's lineup in the U.S. for the 2027 model year. Without boasting spectacular changes, Kawasaki's first-ever electric motorcycle remains a solid contender for customer attention thanks to its low price - and that's what is betting on in the coming…
The nature of my job has brought me face to face over the years with an unending stream of custom motorcycles, but I have to admit, I believe I never came across a pink one, and that kind of wired me to think pink custom motorcycles would look bad. Luckily, the Norton Manx [P]R is here to change my mind. The design is the work of British bike maker Norton and an equally British art collective and…

I don't know about you, but I have no clue just how hyped people in India are about on-screen superheroes. Yet, if I am to judge things based solely on what a local motorcycle maker called TVS did soon after the first trailer for Marvel's latest superhero movie dropped, I'd say they are pretty hyped. That's because the long list of the company's available motorcycles has gotten even longe... (…
In the places where the year can still be divided into four distinct seasons, summer is almost over. With just one month left, there are people out there rushing to make the most of it by either going places or buying stuff. It is for them that Vespa released earlier in July what may very well be the most summer thing of the year: a yellow scooter dedicated to one of the planet's most impressive…
As we're getting ready to enter the eighth month of 2026, Japanese bike maker Honda is busy refreshing its lineup for the upcoming model year.

Although it appears to be a very discreet presence on the American market, Italian motorcycle maker Benelli already has a very solid portfolio for the riders living there: there are two naked bikes, four adventure machines, and a classic motorcycle.

Indian's PowerPlus models are the backbone of the bike maker's lineup, and from time to time the recipients of some upgrades.
