These Motorcycles Are Honda's Greatest All-Time Hits
On episode 130 of the Lowdown Radio Show, Motorcycle Global’s Michael Uhlarik talks Honda's greatest hits. You may not own a Honda. You may be indifferent toward Honda. You may even poke pins into a stuffed effigy of a Honda. But it doesn’t change the fact that they are the most important brand in all of motorcycling. You know the old chestnut about rising tides raising all the boats? That’s Honda. Their innovation and quality so transformed motorcycling that their arrival was the watershed moment in the history of powered two wheelers, even if, at times, they’ve exhibited the frivolity of a calculus teacher. But when Honda is on, they’re really on. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

America's Unknown World Champion Rides Like A Girl
On episode 129 of The Lowdown Radio Show, Neil Graham speaks with a woman who, last year alone, won two world and three US enduro championships. Despite having manufacturer sponsorship and despite a peerless record of success, it’s still necessary for Rachel Gutish to have a part-time job. She’s not sore about it, however, it’s just her reality. And in her 23 years of racing—she just turned 30—she’s seen women’s racing come from the dark ages into the light.

The Isle of Men: Inside the Madness of the TT
On episode 128 of the Lowdown Radio Show, Neil is joined by Trevor Daley. As a former race-winning superbike rider, Trevor never met a hay bale he couldn’t explode, and now he’s moved on to a career as a master motorcycle race fabricator and crew member for leading MotoAmerica superbike teams. Recently Trevor had the opportunity to work on a team at the Classic TT at the Isle of Man, where he rubbed shoulders with John McGuiness and tweaked the bike that carried the mercurial Michael Dunlop to a record-setting lap.

The Good, The Bad And The (Really) Ugly
ADVrider.com managing editor Zac Kurylyk joins Neil this week for a summer summation. Zac talks about getting back on a motorcycle after a serious accident last season, Neil confesses that after years of middling feelings towards the BMW boxer flat twin grudging respect has turned into genuine fondness, and the lads address motorcycle rallies. Zac's been to a few in his time while Neil swears that gunpoint won't be enough motivation to get him to another one after a debacle this summer. The Moto Craft rally was pitched as a different kind of rally, which is noble, except the same old thugs showed up and made a mess of things. Finally, Zac talks about time on the Kawasaki KLE 500 and Neil says the BMW R 12 G/S is a bike to be taken seriously. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Can Sturgis Change Into An Adventure Bike Rally?
Numbers are down at the traditional motorcycle rallies. Way down, depending on who you talk to. And who hasn't had more than enough of fat old men on Harleys blatting about at 25 mph making enough noise to wake the dead? Perhaps it's time to stage a revolution. (Peacefully, of course!) The backbone of the cruiser movement--the baby boomers--are doing their part by dying off, but what are the rest of us doing to resurrect rallies from a slow death? Texan Robert Pandya has an idea. Why not turn Sturgis into an ADV rally? The riding is spectacular, the scenery is stunning and, once all the classic rock bands are put out to pasture, maybe even the music will be tolerable. (Daytona, however, remains hopeless. Can't think of a less interesting place to ride a motorcycle. No offence, north Floridians, but geography has not favored you.) Give the Lowdown Radio Show a listen and let us know if you'd go to an ADV-based Sturgis rally. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Yamaha Fixes The Problem Before There Is One
On Episode 125 of the Lowdown Radio Show, Motorcycle Global's Michael Uhlarik tells us about the quiet revolution taking place within Yamaha. Unlike certain American motorcycle manufacturers, Yamaha wasn’t bleeding cash or mired in a crisis of confidence. Yamaha makes money. And yet the CEO for the world’s second-largest motorcycle manufacturer envisioned a day when the wellbeing of the company could be at risk. Is this the sign of a millennial mastermind (the new CEO is in his 40s) or is it paranoia brought on by the instability of the tumultuous world in which we live? You be the judge. But remember this: American taxpayers were spared the weight of billions in dollars in loans because one domestic automotive CEO had the foresight to do exactly what Yamaha’s boss is doing right now.

The Doctor And The Designer Go For Broke
A motorcycle designer and a plastic surgeon walked into a bar in New Orleans. What happened next? A plan to set a world speed record on the salt flats at Bonneville. Ex-Confederate designer JT Nesbitt and LSU-based surgeon Praz Patcha fell into a fast friendship and decided to take a shot at speed record immortality. But nothing comes easy on the salt, as Nesbitt knows. For Patcha, who’d be doing the riding, this was his first go-round. How did they do? When the pair finally made it back to New Orleans after the attempt, Patcha broke into tears. But were they tears of joy or tears of sorrow? All will be revealed within.

Don't Shed a Tear for Indian
On the Lowdown 123, Harrison Withers gives us the skinny on the aftermath of Indian Motorcycle’s Harley attack ads from a few months ago that split the punters into two camps. One side praised Indian’s guns-loaded, America-first agenda while everyone else gagged on the whole affair. According to Withers, both camps missed the story. Did Indian motorcycle lose its mind or is a plan executing on schedule? Here’s a hint. The product isn’t an Indian motorcycle. It’s the company itself. Learn more about your ad choices.
