A designer at @bmwmotorradusa has lost their mind, and I love it.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
BMW has been offering the “Option 719” package for a few years – decades ago the internal code 719 was used for one-off customization requests, so modern BMW has semi-bastardized it by offering “exclusive optional extras” under that same code for a little bit of flair. The Option 719 paint job for the just-announced R18 B and R18 Transcontintenal is “Galaxy Dust metallic/Titanium Silver 2 metallic”, and it is CRAZY.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Per BMW, “Galaxy Dust metallic is an iridescent paint finish that shimmers in the spectrum from violet to turquoise blue, depending on the lighting. In addition, the metallic components create a unique visual effect when exposed to sunlight. This special finish is combined with a Titanium Silver 2 metallic mirror on the fuel tank, cases and front trim. The transition between the two-color surfaces consists of a hand-applied smoke effect familiar from the legendary R 90 S. In addition, the mirror surface is surrounded by a classic white double line. In this variant, the R 18 Transcontinental also comes with the excellently matched matte black engine.”⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I’m getting serious Ford Mystic vibes - remember their crazy color-changing paint job from the 90s?

Looks like @nathanmay and I have a new subject for our next "sparky" photo (swipe left). Link in bio for the full press release from BMW.⁠⁠

Many thanks to @nathanmay for capturing a bucket-list wheelie for me: doing 105 mph down the front straight of Laguna Seca on the @iconicmotorbikes Ducati Panigale that Steve Rapp raced at Barber!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
⁠⁠It was the perfect ending to an amazing couple of days on track - see you at the next event!

@rsapirstein reports from his experience last month at @raceuscra, an organization I'd definitely be more involved with if I was still living back in New England. What a treat to see classic motorcycles and sidecars getting used as they should - check out that Kawasaki H2 lifting the front at the start of the race!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I sponsor the tankshifter class because I figure it's the most "curious" one, so it's cool to me to see those guys dicing it up, but there’s also the requisite two-strokes, a Vincent, and even Dave Roper on a Moto Guzzi Dondolino!
⁠⁠
If you're on the west coast and like vintage racing, make sure you head out to Laguna Seca this weekend for the AHRMA Classic MotoFest! I'll be up at Laguna a few days earlier for the @iconicmotorbikes track day and will have miss out on the classics, but we'll have a few vintage rides of our own to enjoy. Hope to see you there!⁠⁠

Spend enough time at @iconicmotorbikes and it's pretty much a given that you'll fall in love with the @honda_powersports_us RC30. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I tried to resist but I guess it was inevitable...so now I've got myself a very special commuter!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Many thanks to Adam, this wouldn’t have happened without him.

Now I've got two Hondas with @yoshimura_rd exhausts - though I think the Monkey has the advantage this time around with the sweet banana logos.⁠⁠

Last year’s R6 had magnesium engine cases, magnesium subframe, aluminum fuel tank, titanium valves, titanium muffler, and ceramic-composite-plated cylinder bores. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
That doesn’t sound like something you’d sell to a 18 year-old, it sounds like something you’d send to space – and that’s even before the electronic whizbangery like multiple ride modes, multi-stage traction control, and an optional data logger. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
It also means that the bike got too expensive for the target market, so @yamahamotorusa has just released the new R7 in an attempt to get more riders onto sportbikes. It's much more than a MT-07 with fairings, and it's a great package at $8,999.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
It’s also a triumph of common sense: the 2022 Yamaha YZF-R7 is what the average sportbike rider needs in terms of style, chassis, suspension, and braking, but there’s a not-so-small part of me that wonders if ~75 horsepower is what they want.⁠⁠

About to take the new @yamahamotorusa R7 out for a spin at the US press launch! What do you want to know about it?

It's very rare that I share a press release from @harleydavidson (last week they announced that they had a 9% increase in sales in Q1 compared to the pandemic-stricken 2020, and that bored me so I didn't mention it), but I'm a huge fan of what showed up in my inbox this morning. Harley has announced the "Icons Collection, an annual program offering very limited-edition motorcycle models designed to elevate traditional forms and celebrate Americana, either by revisiting classic Harley-Davidson design themes or by exploring ideas that represent the future of motorcycle style." ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
That's apparently a long way of saying that they're going to make new versions of classic Harley designs, and I think it's pretty cool.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The first one is the Electra Glide Revival, which is "inspired" by the 1969 Electra Glide (the first Harley with the optional Batwing fairing). The new model is limited to 1,500 examples and will set you back a hefty $29,199. I'd spend my money on something else, but I do think this is a great idea from H-D...now I need a modern take on a XR750! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
What do you think of the new program and their first effort?

All seven colors of the new @royalenfield Meteor! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
There will be three models:⁠⁠
The Fireball base model will retail at $4,399.⁠⁠
The Stellar, which features a passenger backrest, will start at $4,499.⁠⁠
The top of the line Supernova, standard with backrest and windshield, will run from $4,599.⁠⁠

@misterfleming just got some quality time with @royalenfield_na's new 350 - check out his First Ride review on Bike-urious through the link in bio.⁠⁠

Was drooling over a gorgeous resto-mod KZ1000 created by @motorelic on @bikebound earlier today only to find out that it's owned by my buddy Bob Kelly. Looks like I'm going to have to go back to Colorado to visit him again!⁠⁠

Check this beauty out, and the head to the link in bio for the story on BikeBound!⁠⁠
