How would you like to go for a spin on the most popular motorcycle of all time? Honda’s 2019 Super Cub is an homage to all of the famous Cub models that have sold more than 100 million units worldwide since the late 1950s. Zack Court’s ride across Los Angeles is just another notch in its belt on this episode of Throttle Out Commute.
Historically, the Tiger 800 has been a little too soft around the edges to keep up with the likes of BMW and KTM, but this third generation is upgraded all over and looks to give the rest of the Europeans a hard time. To test it, Zack Courts takes it on a typical Throttle Out Commute.
Ducati revived its decades-old Scrambler moniker in 2015 with an 800cc version, which still makes up for most models sold. After introducing the 400cc Sixty2, Ducati recently released an all-new 1100cc iteration of the Sport. Ride along on this Throttle Out Commute with Zack Courts as he learns all about this flagship model.
Since 2008, the F800GS has been a stalwart option for a midsized adventure-touring machine, but over the past few years its age has been showing. Now, BMW has introduced the F 850, with an all-new design, to take on the competition from Honda and Triumph. Zack Courts takes it for a ride across LA on this Throttle Out Commute to explore this latest GS iteration.
Indian has taken American Flat Track racing by storm, and to commemorate the company’s success it has finally given American riders a standard bike to be proud of—a 1200cc engine (taken in part from the Scout cruiser) wrapped up in a steel-trellis frame and AFT paint. In this Throttle Out Commute, Zack Courts takes to the streets to see if the FTR 1200 lives up to all the hype.
Honda’s Africa Twin has been a huge hit since it burst onto the ADV scene in 2016, with Dakar looks and a thumping parallel twin engine. Honda has since updated the dash and added ride modes (as well as updating the price), so it seemed like the perfect machine to tackle some fire roads overlooking the famous Big Sur coastline of California. Check it out on this episode of Throttle Out Commute.
Triumph reinvented the modern classic motorcycle with the first of the “new” Bonnevilles that were launched in 2001 and it has now grown to nearly a dozen different models. This Scrambler 1200 XC is the latest version of what is perennially one of Triumph’s most popular machines. On this episode of Throttle Out Commute, Zack Courts takes it across LA to see how it stacks up.
In the early 1970s, Kawasaki came out with a 750cc, three-cylinder, two-stroke machine called the H2—it was famously fast. So much so that Kawasaki revived the moniker in 2015 with the new Ninja H2. The 2019 version is a $30,000, supercharged, 998cc machine, with 190 horsepower at the rear wheel and paint made with precious metal. Zack Courts takes this beast across L.A. to see how it handles a Throttle Out Commute.
The SV650 is a living legend, from its baby-Ducati engine to the agile chassis, there aren’t many budget-focused machines that match the iconic charm of an SV650. And now there’s a new one, with clip-on handlebars and a cafe-race look. Zack Courts goes on a ride on this Throttle Out Commute with this old friend to see how it stands the test of time.
Ride along with Zack Courts as he takes Ducati’s latest sportbike around a MotoGP and World Superbike circuit in Spain. Learn what makes the Panigale V2 special as you scream through 110-mph turns and see the grandstands fly by on this episode of Throttle Out Commute.
