Podcast 598: Why Aren't Muscle Bikes More Popular?

Podcast 598: Why Aren't Muscle Bikes More Popular?

Liza got a jeep and can't stop talking about it. But really, when you think about it, a Jeep is practically a motorcycle. You can easily work on them, and driving them gives you almost the same sensation as riding, with your hair in the wind and the smells of the outdoors. In fact, many Jeep owners are also riders, so the crossover makes sense. But here's a question that brings us to our topic tonight; muscle bikes. How many muscle car owners are also muscle bike owners? And why aren't muscle bikes more popular? We dive into the history and origins of muscle bikes, and Emma does a History Hole on the Harley Vrod. We also talk about what makes a bike a muscle bike, and which are our favorites. With Liza, Stumpy John, Miss Emma, Naked Jim and Bagel.
