    Husqvarna Announces Radical New Streetbikes

    What in the heck is that abomination on wheels?? Those are ugly as sin. They remind me of the weird electric motorcycles.

    Pics from last track day

    Man that looks like fun. Can't say I have the juevos to do it, though. Or the pocket book big enough to learn.

    50 mph crash

    Houston drivers are the worst! I'm not surprised that happened, at all. Glad he's back up and going, sans bike for now.
