Summary
In this episode of Bore & Stoke, we dive into a packed news cycle: Honda brings E-Clutch to the Transalp in the U.S., KTM and Husqvarna shake up the industry with a 4-year warranty, and Ducati teases a new Superleggera V4 Centenario. Not to be outdone, Aprilia has launched the X 250th — a very special edition motorcycle. On the culture side, we talk Sonora Rally, the growing accessibility of Isle of Man TT events, and a trip to the Vespa Museum in Rome. We also take a moment to recognize legends Broc Glover and the late Jeff Smith. Then it’s review time: multiple Triumph first rides, Harley touring machines, new tires from Bridgestone and Continental, and gear from Alpinestars and Vanson. 00:00 Intro 00:35 Advertisement 01:33 Ep 22 call out 03:08 KTM/Husqvarna announce 4-year warranty 06:20 MV Agusta streamlines spare parts distribution 07:53 Broc Glover is a HOF Legend 08:59 RIP Jeff Smith 10:13 Sonora Rally Wrap-up 11:42 More from the Isle of Man 14:50 KTM 890 Adventure R Rally 17:50 Aprilia X 250th breaks cover 23:10 Ducati Panigale V4 Superlegera Centenario 28:10 2026 Triumph Daytona 660 updates 29:56 2026 Honda Transalp with E-clutch ONLY 38:48 Nolan helmet, now with crash detection technology! 41:40 Advertisement 42:14 Dennis’ Roman Adventure! 46:06 Ryan tries the new Bridgestone Battlax V03 at a MotoGP track 49:45 Troy tries the Continental ContiSportAttack 5 at a club racing track 58:31 Troy tries the Alpinestars Supertech R7 helmet 01:04:28 Vanson Full Throttle Leather Jacket 01:07:00 Cortech gloves with a silly name 01:08:51 Harley’s new Road Glide and Street Glide Limiteds 01:13:09 Triumph Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 01:18:19 Sylvia gets her first three-wheel experience 01:19:20 What we’re currently riding and testing 01:22:26 Wrap-up/Comment/Rate us 01:…
