Interested in the Suzuki TL1000S or TL1000R, but too shy to ask all the obvious questions? I try to answer them in my post. Including: TL1000S vs TL1000R, why the TL in general, other motorcycles the motor was used in (a few surprised me!) and whether the "widowmaker" moniker is justified.

The Suzuki TL1000S and TL1000R — Iconic Suzuki V-twin sportbikes that are now collector's items. Not for everyone, but if you know, you know.

High school math, motorcycles, and fun. There's a lot of stuff I used to wonder about "long stroke" or "oversquare" motors, and so I summarised it all here in this article about bore, stroke, and engine displacement.

How to calculate engine displacement from bore and stroke, plus a discussion of some terminology about engine formats.

I rode a VFR800 the other day, and I thought... wait, what other V4 motorcycles are there out there... aside from the Panigale V4?

Not quite ready for a Panigale V4? These are all the other V4 motorcycles you can buy.
