Husqvarna keeps us on pins and needles in what concerns the launch of the 2009 TC 250, the bike that it’s suppose to be the lightest motocrosser yet to be produced. There are many chances that it will participate in the 2009 World Motocross Championship, but what we do know for sure is that it weighs 48.5 lbs.
Much of the massive weight reduction is due to the compactness of the four-stroke engine (13 percent smaller than everything else out there) featuring four titanium radial valves. Developed in collaboration with MX3 racer Andrea Bartolini, the new bike is expected to rule on the 2009 motocross scene.
But in order to do that, it will first have to be produced and rumors are that this autumn will bring racers face to face with it. Let’s hope so!
Leave the broken bones apart and the hours and hours of training and find out that being a motorcycle stuntman has indeed profound satisfactions, especially when you learn how to pull out this stunt. Any candidates?
Motorcycle related deaths are at an all-time high, according to U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Mary Peters. We agree, but shouldn’t they start doing something else apart from presenting us numbers and doing a few fairly inspired videos? >> read

This is one of the funniest commercials I’ve seen in a while. Not about a motorcycle, but about riding gear, it shows up a neard’s idea about motocross. Just look at him go with the name and number painted on its back. That’s crazy!
If you travel in a private airplane and usually have troubles moving around either in remote areas or from the airport to the city you want to visit, there is an ingenious way to solve your problem.
Do as MotorcyclePilot. Mount a pod underneath your aircraft and fit your motorcycle in it. In this case, the supermoto-style bike (a relatively small one) needs a front wheel removal so you won’t be transporting a Harley, but it still does the job.
The pod is easily attached by the plane using an electric drill winch, but I bet you’ll still be wondering if the damn thing is secure underneath you, especially if you fly to India or Africa. If all three of you reach safely to your destination, simply unload the bike, mount the front wheel back in its place and your good to go.
Easy to be confused with an usual Bimota DB7, but a real piece of jewelery for a maker’s fan, the SP Limited Edition is a real demonstration of the Italian style.
Only five such motorcycles have been produced (only for the Spanish market) and they come with a series of improvements and modifications such as a modified centralizer and digital track speedometer, which make life on board a little more classy. Also, the fairing is made out of carbon fiber for a racing look.
Spy shots of the Bat Pod before the movie started everybody’s curiosity and the Dark Night is indeed a success on the screens, but now with the bike’s full detaliling (see video below) everybody will finally find out everything they want to know about this outrageous motorcycle.
Even more, there’s even the question if it can be considered a motorcycle as it has various features that have never been seen before. Batman has definately set the trend for motorcycling future with its engines being fitted in the wheels and the unique riding position.
But if you’re not Batman, there are small chances you’ll fill at home on it due to its size and approximately 700 pounds weight.
