In this, episode 19 of the Bore and Stoke Podcast, we break down the news of the month — including, yes, more KTM news. Plus we talk about a flurry of first looks and leaks, before capping things off with reviews of the bikes we've ridden so far. A lot’s happened — and that's just in January!
We kick things off with a callback to Episode 18 before diving into KTM’s major shakeup, including a new Chief Commercial Officer and layoffs affecting 500 employees. From there, it’s full throttle into fresh metal: leaked Ducati filings, limited-edition Vespas and MV Agustas, new Harley touring and trike models, Triumph’s growing 660 lineup, and more.
Then it’s review time—boots, tires, track weapons, cruisers, and Honda’s E-Clutch revolution.
As always, find the full written reviews, photos, and videos on Motorcycle.com.
We’d like to extend a special thank you to our podcast sponsor, the Honda Gold Wing. If you’re gonna ride, ride something legendary. Learn more about the Honda Gold Wing here: powersports.honda.com/motorcycle/touring/gold-wing?cid=dis_ver_dly&cmpcd=FY26Full_Year_Gold_Wing
