Hamilton Wins on Last Lap, Supercars on Isle 9 - Garage419

The industry does offer U.S. consumers a training course similar to that offered to the military. In fact, the military course is based on the widely available Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) course. They have courses for beginners and long-time riders.

BTW: Breaking an embargo, and bragging about it? Obviously not a professional ... seems any hack with a keyboard is a motoring "journalist."

The Streetfighter/Streetfighter S is kickass, but not in a class that's popular in the U.S. (naked bikes). Other big Ducati news? The year-old 1098 has been upped to an 1198.
There were many other cool bikes at EICMA in Milan last week. The Aprilia Mana X concept, the BMW Lo Rider concept, the Moto Morini Scrambler, the Husqvarna SMQ450 concept, the Suzuki Gemma scooter, etc.
Too bad Wes didn't get an interview with MV Agusta President Matt Levatich. I did, and toured the production facility to see how Harley-Davidson dollars have made massive changes.

Should I care what a rapper is going to drive next?

Nope!

Rappers drive Chrysler 300s, Chargers, Magnums, and European/Japanese sedans anyway...Can't see that it'll change much. Maybe CTS-Vs and Hummers?  How bout full custom Ford Flex...I could actually see one of those things fully tricked out, and look good (of course they look like a stretched Scion XB as is.)

Hey Matt, i got a good answer for you, the rappers will start buying older and older luxury SUV's beacuse they're too fukin high to think straight and buy a different car.(i hate rappers, i listen to metal, which motivated me to write you this comment) 

Prediction: the next new gangster car the new ford flex, cuz its slow big and good looking. Or the range rover, lots of rapper already r using it as a gangster car. Or that pimp out prius in that show i forgot always work, and mayb with those rappers on pruis, youngsters will follow and "save the earth" 

Prediction: If GM survives they will reverse course and continue making the Suburbans. A 2007 Yukon Denali XL is my main vehicle and it's the best car I have ever owned. It does zero to 60 in 6.5 secs, cruises comfortably at 100MPH, rides great and holds a TON of gear. In almost 30,000 miles it has not had a single problem. People who have kids, dogs, gear and travel a lot need room. GM should make them lighter with diesel hybrid powertrains.

Love the Ducati Street fighter.

Next Rapper car: Mercedes S Class, four door Cabriolet V-12 that will be at the Detroit Auto Show in January

Garage 419 is great but why motorcycles? Thecould have been much better topics like tesla only having 9 million in the bank and 200 undelivered cars. Also you should have had another guest. Pilot has more room than a suburban? Really?

Even though I'm not really into bikes I liked this episode!
Do you need an extra drivers license for riding ab bike in the US? Here in europe you must attend driving school before hitting the roads. So you need a license for cars and if you wanna ride bike you need one for bikes... But even with the advanced knowledge about handling the bike there are a lot of deaths in Germany every shiny weekend.

The G's will take the Segway because you can shoot your gun in all directions and still put your 24 inch wheels on it;-)

that is my take on what G's will be rollin out in 
idk why they wanna drive SUV's u can fit some 22's on a prius!

That guy is a total idiot who doesn't know a thing about SUVs, i mean they are gas guzzlers but they have been huge sellers for the american car companies for the past decade, and there is no way in the fiery balls of hell that any honda has more cargo room than a suburban. I really hope he doesn't ever come back.

According to KBB Suburban does have significantly more room than the Pilot. Unfortunately for GM the big trucks have run it's course very early in the life of the GMT900 platform. Well the Lambda platform is the only cross over platform right? Trailblazer is gone too. A tweaked platform can still make for a decent Escalade. At this point, lets just hope and pray GM can survive.

Ducati-what a beautiful bike. If a motorcycle doesn't scare you or you don't respect it, you should probably not ride. Glad to hear the Marines have that class available to them. Have fun, but don't lose your life. Ride smart, please, you deserve what you earned, but stay alive to a ripe old age and enjoy life.

Congrats to Lewis Hamilton.

decked out custom prius's might actually catch on in the rapper community after this snazzy one at sema

You know that International Pickup truck... thing? Yeah- that. It would be a cool Garage 419 car actually, hell it would be cool to see a road test of that thing.

Or a Brabus Unimog...

Another road test we'd like to see Matt. =P (And another awesome Garage 419 vehicle.)
