KTM has quickly gained credibility in the MotoGP paddock since the 2012 inception of the Moto3 support class. With 34 race wins and five combined rider/manufacturer World Championship titles already to the Austrian maker’s credit, it’s no surprise to see KTM’s RC250R-based machines become the most common bike on the grid. Recently, at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain, I had the pleasure of riding a trio of KTM Moto3 race bikes. RC250R Production RacerKTM Factory Moto3 machines...

Ducati celebrated the start of production on the 2015 Scrambler with a party for employees at its factory in Bologna, Italy. The Scrambler is an important new model for Ducati and, in many ways, a unique one in the manufacturer’s lineup. While most of Ducati’s models were designed to set new limits in performance and technology, the Scrambler’s key themes are fun and freedom of expression. Unlike more exotic fair like the Panigale, you’re more likely to find the Scrambler on a beach than a...

Check Your Tire Quality Going into the winter months with a shagged set of 3-year-old race take-offs is a recipe for a high side. If you prefer to avoid intimate engagements with the city’s roadway, then take winter head-on with a motorcycle tire that has at least 50% tread life – try the ol’ penny tire tread test. Check the birthdate of your tires by scoping out the 4-digit code usually adjacent to the DOT markings. The first two digits indicate the week of manufacturing and the second...

Tire-maker Michelin has formed a partnership with Chinese textile company Jihua to manufacturer soles for high-performance footwear including motorcycle boots with tread patterns inspired by the company’s tires.

The two companies hope to secure a 5-10% share of the technical sole market within five years. That may not seem like a...

I noted that MotoGP rookie Jack Miller, describing his recent test at Malaysia’s Sepang International Circuit, spoke of the “smoother, more controlled power delivery” of the pneumatic-valve Honda RC213V-RS. I like to emphasize that pneumatic springs have value other than the raw ability to reach high rpm. What pneumatics do best is make the valves follow short-duration, high-lift cams that metal springs cannot. Engines with metal springs must be given longer duration and reduced lift if...
