How To Use A Motorcycle Helmet Communicator
Wed, 05 Feb 2025Stay connected even when you’re trying to disconnect It used to be that we would hop on our motorcycles to disconnect from the world and find peace and serenity out on the open road. But now with our interconnected world, some of us have no choice but to stay tethered to the technology gods – even while riding.

KTM Sells MV Agusta Back to the Sardarov Family
Fri, 31 Jan 2025Transaction in the “mid double-digit million” euro range MV Agusta is returning to the control of a wealthy family that had previously owned the Italian brand, shortly after it had been purchased by a larger motorcycle company. If that sounds familiar, it’s what happened when the Castiglioni family regained full ownership of MV Agusta from Harley-Davidson back in 2010, after the American company had purchased it from the family in 2008. Fast forward to 2025 and history repeats itself, this time with the Sardarov family regaining 100% control of MV Agusta after KTM exercised its option to gain a majority stake just a year prior.
Limited Edition Vespa 946 Snake Celebrates Lunar New Year
Fri, 17 Jan 2025Vespa probably isn’t the brand you’d think would be celebrating the Lunar New Year and honoring the Chinese zodiac, but for the third year in a row, the Italian brand has done just that with a limited edition 946 scooter. The 2025 Vespa 946 Snake comes after last year’s 946 Dragon and 2023’s 946 Bunny as the third entry in the brand’s Lunar Collection. We can probably expect the collection to expand over the next decade to complete the Chinese zodiac’s 12 animals, with a Horse-themed model for 2026.The 946 Dragon came in a muted golden color with a bold green dragon graphic on the front shield, while the 2023 946 Bunny had a more playful look, with a lime green color and a cartoon rabbit on the shield.
