Show Notes
In episode 3 of the Bore & Stoke podcast, we question what’s going on in the world today. With the latest news that Bajaj has saved KTM and basically owns it now, to Baggers joining MotoGP, there are a lot of big things to talk about.
After diving into the weeds with our discussion about KTM and Baggers, we continue the conversation talking about BMW’s new concept bike and what it means going forward. Then we get into the meat of the conversation, as Ryan and Troy talk Next Gen Supersports. Specifically, the latest test we did with the 2025 Ducati Panigale V2, Suzuki GSX-R750, and Yamaha YZF-R9. We had a lot to say about them, and so did you, as evidenced by the reactions on our Youtube video. So, naturally, we talk about it some more!
Finally, we cap things off discussing some of the new bikes we’ve ridden recently, like the Ducati Streetfighter V4, Suzuki DRZ-4S, Kawasaki Z900SE, KTM 450SMR, and one more Ducati, the XDiavel V4.
We cover a lot in this hour – you won’t want to miss it!
