Description

The Yamaha name stands for a heritage of motorcycle performance and classic styling. Visit your local dealer to find the 2023 Yamaha sport heritage bike for you or go to YamahaMotorsports.com to find out more.
This week, Associate Editor Kelly Callan rides the new Honda SCL500. This neo-scrambler is essentially a freshly styled model using Honda’s tried n’ true 471cc parallel twin motor. This is inexpensive motorcycling on a cool-looking bike, and Kelly tells us whether the scrambler is actually worthy of the Honda brand name.
In our second segment, Arthur gets to chat with one of his buddies—“Fast” Frankie Garcia. Riding for the highly professional Saddlemen Bagger racing team, Frankie got his first motorcycle—literally—since before he could walk.  Now he’s racing in the sensational Moto America, Mission King of the Baggers series, and in the first race he finished on the podium. Frankie’s story with its ups and downs, tells the story of what it’s like to try and earn a living from motorcycle racing. If you’re curious as to what it takes to get a racing Bagger on to the grid, what helps make them so fast, and what it’s like to actually ride one, then you’re going to enjoy hearing what Frankie has to say.
