For all of us on bikes…KTM has confirmed that its cheeky electric E-SPEED concept scooter, which was shown at the Tokyo show, will be joining the range line-up as a 2015 model.
Harald Plöckinger, KTM Executive Board Member for Production and Business Development, said: “We believe in electro-mobility on two wheels. Because off-road sport is our core area, we have developed an E-Crosser, the Freeride E, but we are convinced that electric mobility can succeed in urban areas. Continue reading →
A big shout out to our newest guests from the Kuwait Scooter Club, who rode Vespas over an incredible 1360 kilometres all the way to Dubai, UAE! The original plan was to ride from Kuwait to Italy, which was cancelled as they had to cross Syria, and with all the issues brewing in the country, it didn’t seem like a good idea. Continue reading →
This is how you reinvent a Vespa. Rather than discarding his 1968 Vespa Sprint scooter, Australian designer and blogger David Giammetta (Reinventing Wheels) has converted one half into a comfortable lounge chair, while the rear gets transformed into a simple workstation with a seat and a laptop stand.

Way to go, Abdulla!!
Winner of our 2012 Bikers Café Instagram Photography competition, Mr. Abdulla came down to the café at around 3:30PM to receive his gift – an awesome yellow Vespa – from Mr. Khalid Bin Hadher, owner and CEO.

Apparently, postal workers in Hakata (it’s one of the seven wards of Fukuoka City) take to the streets en masse every New Year’s eve, and that too on a fleet of little scooters no less. Awesome show of small displacement power it sure is. Continue reading →
With the new year finally here, we presume there are at least a few of you who haven’t fully made the plunge into 2013, thanks to parties, after-parties and what not. So here’s a sweet little video from the guys at Skateboarder Magazine; and it’s no illusion, you’re actually seeing some cool skateboarding on a motorcycle blog. Continue reading →
Okay, it’s been a while since we posted up some scooter pictures. And no, we’re not slapping on cute Vespa snaps with blonde models slathered all over them. If you’re a fan of the Japanese trend of customising big scooters like the Yamaha Majestic, you’re in for a treat. If you’re not, these could probably change your mind. Air suspensions, killer paint jobs and what not! Rad! Continue reading →
