Podcast 426: The Problematic Hondamatic

This week on our motorcycle podcast Liza has returned from Peru with stories to tell, and Wendy Crockett joins us to confirm Liza's stories aren't all made up. Vintage Rides is a French company that has been curating moto trips around the world, and have figured out the right combination of perfect roads and authentic experiences off the bike. Liza and Wendy's trip was no exception, with visits to Inca ruins, loads of llamas, and plenty of off road challenges. They share their stories and reviews, and also talk about the Royal Enfield Bullet, and why it's the little bike that could. With Liza, Douglas, Nak, Stumpy John, Craigzilla, Connor, Todd and Bagel. www.vintagerides.travel breakingawayadventures.com/misfits-rally-vol-2 www.adifferentagenda.com/ www.leodescapes.com/ Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew

This week on our motorcycle podcast our favorite Pakistani sexy mofo is here, none other than Moin Khan himself. Besides our upcoming Stumpistan trip (now combined with Chickistan, so we're calling it Chumpistan), Moin is first leading a new tour in Vietnam next month. In addition to adding Vietnam to his list, he lead his first tour of Tanzania last year which came right after a record rainy season. This lead to some true adventures that included drowning bikes in a river, seeing elephants, giraffes and ostriches, and riding on some slippery dirt roads. But the group banded together to overcome the obstacles together, which makes for some good story telling from Moin. Also, Liza introduces a fun new game you can play along with, and see if you can guess the model of bikes being described. Lastly we finish up with listener emails, one of which brings Scottie to tears of joy. With Liza, Stumpy John, Moin, Scottie, Ray Ray and Bagel. breakingawayadventures.com/misfits-rally-vol-2 www.vintagerides.travel www.adifferentagenda.com/ www.leodescapes.com/ Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew

This week on our motorcycle podcast Liza has returned from LA, and has stories of her adventures on a mobility scooter in Disneyland. In addition, she visited the Bike Shed and the Petersen Museum, where she spotted a weird looking bike called a Münch. This gives Emma the perfect opportunity to do a History Hole on Münch Motorcycles, as well as other bikes using motors from the automobile world. Next up we are joined by Thor Drake of See See Motor Coffee and the One Moto Show in Portland. We love to attend this show every year, and are sad we can't make it due to a scheduling conflict, but Thor is here to tell us all the amazing things we will miss. Lastly, we read some listener emails.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we talk about ways to get more power out of your bike. You can start with the basics, like air filter, exhaust and remapping. Then you can move on to big bore kits, superchargers, cams and lifters. And don't forget about race fuel and fuel additives. How well do all these things work? And the bigger question; are they worth it?
