Old motorcycles represent good memories for me and I suspect for many of you reading this blog. Honda introduced the CB750 motorcycle to the U.S. in 1969. The bike was targeted directly at the U.S. market after company officials fully understood the opportunity for a larger bike. It had 750-cc, 4-cylinder SOHC engine, electric start and disc brakes. The motorcycle [...]

Steve Jobs has passed away and what we’ll find over the next couple of weeks will be planned storylines about the life of Apple’s co-founder and his time in Oregon attending Reed College. I had an article ready to post about the letdown of the iPhone 4S launch. Given all the hyperbolic speculation and secrecy leading [...]

We now have the first documented incident of how the HAMC and Vagos violence has provoked a response from law enforcement in Manteca, CA which is about [...]
