TELL CONGRESS TO SUPPORT YOUR RIGHT TO RACE The Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act (RPM Act, H.R. 5434 and S. 2602) has one more chance to pass both chambers of Congress before the end of the legislative session. Lawmakers must hear from supporters of the RPM Act before they decide which issues will be addressed in the final days of the year. The bipartisan RPM Act would ensure that converting motor vehicles into competition-only vehicles remains legal. Street-legal motorcycles are considered motor vehicles under the federal Clean Air Act. The RPM Act states that it was the clear intent of Congress when passing and amending the Clean Air Act that motor vehicles, including motorcycles, used solely for competition would ...

by Mircea Panait from https://www.autoevolution.com When you hear Harley-Davidson, what do you think of straight away? What kind of image does it spring into your mind? Easy Rider is one potential answer, but we can all agree that H-D stands for old-school motorcycles and a very strong culture built on these loud bikes. The problem with Harley-Davidson, however, is the company’s reluctance to modernize, reinvent itself, and appeal to a younger audience. Japanese manufacturers are miles ahead in every respect, but H-D is trying hard to make amends for decades of resting on past laurels. The LiveWire is the perfect example of this change, and in the spring of 2021, the Serial 1 electric bicycle will be joining the electric ...

by Kyle Wiggers from https://venturebeat.com Ride Vision, a startup developing “collision aversion” technology for motorcycles, today emerged from stealth with a $7 million round led by investment platform OurCrowd. Ride Vision also unveiled an AI-driven safety alert system called Ride Vision 1 that will go on sale in several European countries in early 2021. A spokesperson said the fresh capital will be used for marketing, distribution, and R&D as the company looks to expand its 20-person team. There are more than 700 million motorcycles on the road globally, according to estimates. And motorcycles currently account for 28% of all fatal road accidents, resulting in the death of roughly 378,000 people a year. That number could tick upward soon, as motorcycle ...

Hi It’s Keith here, otherwise known as Fat Albert. My love for motorcycles started at a very young age and has turned into so much more than a hobby - some might even say it’s an obsession. Do you feel it too? Spending all those miles experiencing something so close to freedom… it’s exhilarating. I have searched the world, looking for quality gear at affordable prices. Every item I offer to you has been tried and tested by bikers. Each one has reached our stringent standards and managed to crack the nod. So to celebrate this passion we have in common, I have a gift for you. For the next 48 hours, take $15 off any helmet of your choice. ...

by Vlad Mitrache from https://www.autoevolution.com Up until very recently, the thought of a drag race between a Porsche (any model) and a Harley-Davidson motorcycle (any hog) was one of the most preposterous ones that anyone could come up with. On the one hand, you have a German automotive brand with a strong history and deep roots in motorsport. Sure, it's guilty of also building SUVs - with some even powered by diesel - but you'd be pushing it to call any of its models "slow". On the other hand, you have an American motorcycle specialist with an equally strong history and plenty of racing connections throughout its history, though less so in the more recent years. Indeed, these days Harley-Davidson ...
