    The Cleveland Moto podcast is an entertaining and informative show that covers a wide range of topics related to motorcycles and the biking community. The hosts have a great dynamic and their love for motorcycles shines through in each episode. The show offers tech tips, industry insights, and hilarious anecdotes that keep listeners engaged and entertained.

    One of the best aspects of The Cleveland Moto podcast is the wealth of knowledge shared by the hosts. They go into granular detail on motorcycle maintenance, sharing tips and tricks that can be useful to both experienced riders and novices alike. The conversations are informative but also approachable, making it easy for anyone to understand and learn from.

    The hosts also have a great sense of humor, which adds a fun and lighthearted element to the podcast.

Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz to Retire in 2025Jochen Zeitz, CEO of Harley-Davidson, announced plans to retire in 2025 after five years at the helm. Zeitz introduced the "Hardwire" strategy in 2021, focusing on high-margin products and modernizing the brand to appeal to younger riders. Despite these efforts, the company forecasts flat to declining profits for 2025, citing tempered consumer spending on big-ticket items. Harley's stock has risen over 11% since Zeitz took charge, though it has underperformed compared to the S&P 500's 77% climb during the same period.​Reuters2. Harley-Davidson Board Member Resigns Over 'Grave Concerns'Board member Jared Dourdeville resigned, expressing "grave concerns" about the company's future. In his resignation letter, he cited "severe underperformance" by leadership, chaotic turnover, declining sales, and a lack of products to attract new customers. Harley-Davidson responded by stating that Dourdeville was not a dissenting voice in board discussions and acknowledged the challenging market conditions.​CBS583. Royal Enfield Launches Bear 650 Scrambler in the U.S.Royal Enfield unveiled the Bear 650, a scrambler-style motorcycle inspired by the brand's 1960 Big Bear Run victory. Based on the INT 650 platform, the Bear 650 features a 648cc parallel-twin engine, upgraded suspension, wire-spoked wheels, and a two-into-one exhaust system. It also includes a full-color TFT dash and all-around LED lighting. The Bear 650 is available in five color options, with prices starting at $6,849. The first units are expected to arrive at U.S. dealerships in early November 2024. MotoAmerica Talent Cup: A New Pathway to MotoGPReplacing the Junior Cup, the Talent Cup is part of the global “Road to MotoGP” program.

    This is a fantastic podcast from the vault way back in 2013.This past weekend we had a blast down at the Red River Gorge in beautiful Kentucky. This rally was put on by Logan and Amanda Miller of Rust Revival (http://www.rustrev.com/). Posted as a Do The Ton event on www.dotheton.com it went from May 17th to the 20th. We rode twisty mountain roads, drank I think ever kind of beer known to man, and ate delicious food (all cooked by wonder woman Amanda herself). It was great to see familiar faces from past DTT events as well as meet many new people. We can't thank Logan and Amanda enough for providing us with such a great location and such a great weekend. Of course our trusty R2 unite came along and many of the attendees joined us for a podcast out on the porch of our beautiful lodgings.
