A review of the DVD movie "Chrome & Hot Leather" starring the hard core movie biker William Smith.

Aerostich are offering an interesting alternative to having a motorcycle hydraulic lift in your garage.

Basically, it's two "milk crates" and two pieces of metal with some tie-downs, but all done in a way that saves a lot of space in your garage, and you can set it up in seconds.

Ideal to work on your motorcycle without having to crawl on hands and knees.

Fake Ducati In Movie Knight and Day. Aprilia Used

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 10:30 PM PDT

Knight Day Ducati Aprila
The new blockbuster movie, Knight and Day, with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz riding on a Ducati Hypermotard motorcycle is a .... FAKE!

Not the movie, nor Diaz or Cruise, but the Ducati is a fake. The Ducati is in fact an Aprilia SXV550 motorcycle, since the Ducati is too fragile for stunts, so the producers replaced it with a disguised Aprilia....

Vespa Trophy 2010: Nice Initiative

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 08:30 AM PDT

Vespa Trophy 2010
Vespa logo
Vespa's annual gathering, this year in Fatima, Portugal, combines a pretty novel concept, called the Vespa Trophy.

Each European club, must on its way to the gathering, pass by as many Vespa dealers as it can, collect a stamp, get their photo taken, and the club with the most stamps wins.

Great idea.

France: New Location Type For Radars Cameras

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 03:30 AM PDT

Toy Railway crossing
The French authorities, always on the look out for novel ways of parting you from your hard earned money, have found a new location for their radar cameras.

The first railroad crossing camera was installed this week, in Picardy (North France). They are hoping to catch 60 motorcycles and cars per day, at €135 per photo.

Obviously, placing barriers is not in our interest, since it doesn't generate money...

Four, reasonably funny TV ads for Motorcycle-Superstore.

All four involve people ordering motorcycle gear, and then using it in a way you're NOT supposed to... like a cute bikini clad girl rubbing motorcycle oil on her while sunbathing.

We're listing many different video game platforms (not all - yet), and more titles will be put on-line shortly.

Paris Hilton on motorcycle
The Paris police have released the 2009 mortality stats of the French capital city, and almost half of them are motorcycles.

But is that the whole story, or are the authorities hiding the real truth?

Ducati Motorcycle For F1 Racer

Posted: 21 Jun 2010 12:45 AM PDT

ducati desmosedici rr motorcycle fernando alonso
Ducati gave a very nice, and very expensive gift to the 2 times world champion Formula 1 Ferrari driver; Fernando Alonso.

I doubt that the Spanish F1 racer is a motorcycle rider, so a Ducati keychain would probably have been a better gift.

Am I jealous? What do you think!

Design: New Traffic Lights

Posted: 20 Jun 2010 11:00 PM PDT

Traffic Light Color Blind
Nice design idea for traffic lights. Instead of three round lights, top one a triangle (but red), middle orange remains round, and bottom green one is a square.

This way color blind people can see the light at a glance. On top of that, it looks nice.
