Bore and Stoke Ep 11: So Many New Bikes!
Once again, the MO crew is back to talk about what's happening in the moto world — boy, a LOT has happened since the last time we met.
It's not even EICMA time yet, and we have a slew of new models that have been introduced. From sport-touring machines to dirt models, and everything in between. We tell you what we know, and then what we think.
We've also got industry news, a little bit of racing news, as well as some quirky bits to talk about, like BMW's Pope-mobile.
Lastly, we end with a discussion about our recent Middleweight Naked Bike comparison and Harley's latest twist on the Pan America.
We’d like to extend a special thank you to our podcast sponsor, the Honda Gold Wing. If you’re gonna ride, ride something legendary. Learn more about the 50th anniversary of the Honda Gold Wing here.

Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.

The Honda seems to be the most sensible for my needs. You can have all the others as they hold no interest.
