Pierer basically revealed that they will reposition the 110-year old brand. While industry experts have questioned Pierer’s plans to merge KTM, Husqvarna and Husaberg to create one large company using the car industry as inspiration, we try to find out what future may hold for Husqvarna.<a style="white-space:nowrap" href="http://www.mbike.com/news/2014/12/husqvarna-will-become-a-retro-brand/">&#8194;Read the full article &#187;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Chinese have just revealed a Europen patent of a V-Twin that suggests that they may have plans to offer bikes in the old continent. The engine was introduced at a recent motorcycle show in Guangzhou, China. Now, before you laugh at them, just take a look at recent made-in-China cars and realize how fast their car manufacturers got in the last ten years. They certainly have the money to buy a smaller European or Japanese manufacturer to get the know-how and with an attractive price tag, the well-established companies could face a serious challenge.<a style="white-space:nowrap" href="http://www.mbike.com/news/2014/12/chinese-250cc-v-twin-by-longija-revealed/">&#8194;Read the full article &#187;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Twice a year, motorbike fans from all around the world converge on the Isle of Man. Since 1907 this small island in the Irish Sea has hosted the Tourist Trophy, the oldest and most challenging motorcycle race on the calendar. For 14 days in May/June there’s only one game in town: the races on the Snaefell Mountain Course. The second motorcycle get-together in this otherwise tranquil sliver of land traditionally takes place in August, when the Classic TT (Tourist Trophy) roars into life with no less enthusiasm – if not quite the same speeds. The start and finish of the races are in the capital Douglas.<a style="white-space:nowrap" href="http://www.mbike.com/news/2014/08/bmw-group-classic-brings-together-past-and-present-on-the-isle-of-man/">&#8194;Read the full article &#187;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Interceptor® stakes out a special standing in the world of motorcycles, one that uniquely defines what only Honda can deliver. Famous for its distinctive V-4 power delivery, feel and sound, over the years it carved out a fiercely loyal following. When riders could own only a single motorcycle, thousands of enthusiasts insisted that one bike simply had to be a Honda Interceptor. Nothing else came close to matching the all-around capabilities that have made the Interceptor a true legend in its own time.<a style="white-space:nowrap" href="http://www.mbike.com/news/2014/07/2014-honda-interceptor-development/">&#8194;Read the full article &#187;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The aspirations of BMW Motorrad with regard to future generations of boxer-powered roadsters take concrete, emotionally charged shape at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2014 in the form of the BMW Concept Roadster. Last year BMW Motorrad presented the BMW Concept Ninety here - a modern interpretation of a classic BMW motorcycle with boxer engine that demonstrated just how emotional a retrospective on 90 years of BMW Motorrad can be. "By contrast, the contemporary emotional appeal of the BMW Concept Roadster shows that, as far as BMW is concerned, motorcycling is much more than just perfect function," explains Edgar Heinrich, Head of BMW Motorrad Design.<a style="white-space:nowrap" href="http://www.mbike.com/news/2014/07/bmw-concept-roadster-bmw-roadster-revolution/">&#8194;Read the full article &#187;</a>]]></description>
