Michael Uhlarik joins us again to talk about the state of the motorcycle industry, how the Chinese brands are going to fit, and fills us in on what really happened at Damon Motorcycles. But first, we talk about what's been happening in the garage, how we lost an old friend, and why you should go ride the Lost Sierra.

In this rousing episode, we start with a segment called Fight Me! The Misfits take turns making declarative statements, and then challenge everyone to fight them if they disagree. There's a good chance you may be arguing back at your listening device, so send us your comments in an email. Next up we review a bunch of items Liza bought on Ali Express. Not all of them are great, but some are pretty good and may get your attention. The interesting takeaway from this segment is that you don't always find the best deal on AliExpress, and that you may be buying the same item from someone else for a much higher price. Lastly, we read listener emails and answer some questions. With Liza, Neal, Charlie, Matt and Bagel. www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT
The One Motorcycle Show is the best show in the world. There, I said it. And I truly believe that, which is why you will find me there every year, absorbing the vibe and conducting interviews. This year I roped stunt Misfit Wendy Crockett into joining me for her first time. She shares her observations while helping with interviews, but also managed to become part of the story herself. We had a great time, met so many people, were greeted by so many listeners, saw so many things, and came through waiting for the announcement for next year's event. Thanks to Doug and Jason for tagging along and helping us find the stories. #Onemotoshow www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT
We are back from the Misfits Rally and have stories to tell. We had an amazing time, and want to thank everyone who attended and made it so much fun. Motorcycle industry veteran Michael Uhlarik joins us to talk about current state of the dealerships and manufacturers. A lot of changes have happened in the past couple decades, making it harder and harder to make a profit selling motorcycles. We learn that the USA is only 1% of the global market share, and with some of the highest standards, make it hard for manufacturers to bring their bikes here. And the dealerships are struggling with rising rents and insurance costs, making it even harder to make a profit. So what's the answer? What does the motorcycle dealership industry look like in the future? What is going to save it? Let us know what you think.

The Misfits Rally is in the bag, and oh what a fun time we had. There were street rides, ADV rides, dirtbiking, a food tour, games and more. But the best part about the rally is all of the people who attended. There were long nights in front of the fire pit, with drinks and stories being shared. Thanks to everyone who attended for making it the best rally to date. We were also fortunate to have Rob Day from ADV Moto Pros there offering private instruction. We sat down with Rob in front of an audience and talked to him about riding technique, the pros and cons of different off road bikes, and how much fun he had at the rally. The next day Emma entertained the crowd with a recording of Ask Miss Emma live. They asked her any technical questions they had, and Emma gave thorough answers. Thanks to Breaking Away Adventures, ADV Moto Pros and all of the Misfits who attended. What a great event! https://advmotopros.com/ https://www.breakingawayadventures.com/ www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop
Is the Suzuki Gladius a good bike? Yes. Then why did it fail so big? It was the next version of an already popular bike, the SV650. Known for being great performance at a great price, the SV650 became a hit on the road and on the track. So where did Suzuki go wrong? They marketed it to women. This backfired in 2 ways. Men labeled it a 'girls' bike, and women were insulted that they substituted aesthetics over performance. Suzuki learned their lesson, and the follow up to the Gladius was the gen 3 SV650. We go into detail about what went wrong and also talk about why the SV650 was so great (and still is).

It's Easter Sunday and New Bike Season! We welcome podcast newbie Yosemite Bill, and share our confessions about things motorcycle.

Welcome to another rousing episode, where you get to learn all about things you didn't think you needed to know. Liza is back from her trip picking up her new bike which is not a Tracer, or is it? Hmmmm. Either way, it's a sweet triple that purrs like a kitten. This brings up some questions, like why is the gas gauge designed for maximum anxiety? And why aren't there more sweet triples on the road? In fact, this whole episode is basically Emma answering questions about all sorts of things, and continuing to wow us with her knowledge. Is there anything she doesn't know?
