Victory Motorcycles earned a couple of podium places at this year’s Pikes Peak International Hill Climb with their electric Empulse RR and the petrol-powered Project 156 – placing 2nd and 3rd overall respectively. These videos (and understandably) are unfortunately not from the race day, but they’re still very cool (assuming you have a computer and internet connection that don’t suck).
Video Intermission – A Tale of Two Kawasaki Ninja H2Rs
Kawasaki’s Ninja H2R is no less absurd today then when it was released to the world two years ago. It’s the most powerful production motorcycle ever sold (a claimed 326 horsepower if you’re getting lots of flow through the ram air intake) thanks to the supercharged 998cc engine, but you’ll only see it on racetracks or closed public roads.

As if I haven’t spent enough time watching the motorcycle videos from Jay Leno’s Garage, now they’ve consolidated all their ‘2 wheels good’ videos into one playlist. I don’t think I’ll be getting any work done today…
