2013 Triumph Scrambler
The 2013 Triumph Scrambler is fitted with a parallel twin, 865cc, air-cooled engine that produces 58hp and a very respectable 50ft-lbs of torque. Carburettors have been discarded in order to meet EU emissions requirements so the engine is now fed by a multipoint sequential electronic fuel injection system with SAI, this has the added benefits...
Mercury Mountain
The background of this photograph has been the source of much debate between us here at Silodrome, I think it's Pikes Peak but I'm being told there's no way that's the case.

The Roach by Icon 1000

From a design perspective the Explorer has that angular, industrial look that I think will define many motorcycles from this period and ensure the bike's place in history as a classic off-road tourer.
Ural Solo sT
I have a huge soft spot for Ural motorcycles, the classic styling and staggering toughness of the Ural bikes is legendary. The standard Ural is a sidecar motorcycle and both rear wheels are powered via a shaft drive and a 745cc boxer engine, this model is called the "Ural Solo sT" and it's the company's...
Petrol – Food – Beer
This wonderful short film tells the tale of three British men who decided, in the early '90s, to climb onto their £500 motorcycles and ride them around the world. With no preparation, forethought, research or very much money. And they did it.
