ny knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiast will tell you WP is a Dutch suspension manufacturer. That was true once, but in the nearly four decades since the firm was established, it has become more. Much more, as I discovered during a tour of the Austrian factory. WP was founded in 1977 by Wim Peters, whose initials purportedly gave the company its name. That’s only part of the story, however, because for many years WP went by White Power. This made sense for two reasons: First, the company’s...

Amidst driving rain, flooding, delays, and great racing at Road Atlanta’s round two of the 2015 season, we had a short chat with MotoAmerica’s Communications Manager, Paul Carruthers. If you’re unfamiliar with Carruthers, his credentials make him the perfect fit for his job. Carruthers grew up on the racetrack. He’s the son of Kel Carruthers, a 250 Grand Prix World Champion who also won the Isle of Man and was manager of the team that brought Kenny Roberts to his world championships. Where...

May 21st and 24th, 2015 at La Marina Joseph Khoury- Dbayeh   It is a universal truth that the best way to understand a man is to think like a man. Men have their own mindset, needs, interests, aspirations, not to mention dreams. In a nutshell, men have their own world. Stemming from that belief, FEW, a newcomer in the event management arena, decided to dedicate an entire exhibition for men. Whether they are seeking simple apparel or aiming for a tad of sophistication, men can find it all...

What makes road racing so great is that it’s one of the only sports that lets women race with the men. Since it is a coed sport, it’s not always easy to pick out a female motorcycle racer in the slew of bikes.   If you’ve read my previous story on Joy Higa, I mentioned my background of being a turn worker for the American Federation of Motorcyclists (AFM). I also described how she was easy to spot in a sea of similar-colored bikes—the main indicator being her braided ponytail. At first,...

By that I mean advancements unique to motorcycle design have kept the motorcycle industry in near-constant forward motion, but adaptations of new and existing technologies alike from other industries have also powered motorcycle design itself forward.   This is an exciting time to be a motorcyclist because now, more than ever, it's electronics that are revolutionizing motorcycle...

For better or for worse, I bought a Hipster bike. This Hipster special is complete with rattle-can black wheels, upside-down Clubman bars that hit the gas tank on both sides, worn out brakes, open exhaust and pop-on air cleaners. It’s a vinyl-owner, kale-eatin’, Liberal’s wet dream and it’s now mine. Starting life as a 1976 Honda CJ360T, it has since lost its fenders, tail section, mirrors, handlebars and factory paint.   “I got it at a good price, and I couldn’t pass it up,” is what I...
