I genuinely can’t understand anyone who’s still a fan of his, but particularly the people he hates most. His own daughter wants nothing to do with him, he’s getting more and more transphobic every single day on Twitter, yet he still has fans. Boggles the mind Read more

Staff Writer at Jalopnik. Sucker for big adventurous motorcycles and tiny sporty cars. It doesn't make much sense to him, either.
The Versys still has that 19" front wheel, is my issue with it. Also, somehow, it’s heavier than an F800GS? Read more
I really liked that comparison, because it showed off something i think is key with beginner bikes: Helping you figure out what part of motorcycling you want to pursue. A Ninja is a great beginner bike if you want to do Sportbike Things, but the baby GS will do everything. Try it all, see what you like, and buy a… Read more
I actually desperately want an airhead, but not as my only bike. If I had room for two, I’d like to have one modern fuel-injected adventure bike as a reliable ride and one project airhead to tinker and tune carbs on. Alas, I live in Brooklyn, so it’s looking like I’ll end up with only the former Read more
God, I wish. I’ve been salivating over that and the Tenere 700, but unfortunately would need to win Powerball to get either Read more

I spell both “bimmer” but pronounce them “beemer.” I’m the worst of both worlds Read more
The head gasket issues were largely an early-aughts thing, but this is a completely new engine design than those older cars--FB rather than EJ. The FB’s design considered the head gasket issue, and Subie changed some things to try and mitigate it. I don’t know that the cars are old enough yet to truly know how they’ll… Read more
Eh, on an off-road focused car, it makes more sense as protection Read more
Nope! It’s the FB25D. The EJ25 finally died with the previous generation STi Read more
You’re Subaru’s ideal buyer for a Crosstrek Read more
They mentioned the “big block” version when I attended the press event for the 2.0, and it was definitely tongue-in-cheek Read more
I can confidently say that, in my years of commuting on the subway and seeing all manner of people onboard, I haven’t killed a single one of them. Read more
If it isn’t, how do you explain this?
Buell’s just a different kind of experiment! Aermacchi supplied H-D’s last offroad bike before the Pan America. Buell was sportier, but still meant for asphalt Read more
If I had to suffer through that, I’m gonna democratize the pain Read more
You’re not wrong Read more
