As the year come to an end, and the seasons change, snow begins to fall! For those of us that love life on two wheels, what better way to enjoy the snow, then to figure out how to still ride bikes in it!!! Insert half snowmobile half dirtbike, and 100% insanity here! Kohl decided with all this motorcycling he's doing in life, maybe it's time to give the snow bike thing a shot, so we're looking forward to hearing all about his adventures out in the cold!! Back in the real world, we see some interesting moves being made by teams in Moto America, to include the Yamaha team in the SuperSport class deciding to run an R9 under their top rider for the 2025 season, it seems this may mark the official death of the beloved R6 and the end of the 600cc supersports all together!! It is sad to see this icon move on, but exciting to see where the world will go, and what else manufacturers will develop as times and emissions requirements continue to change!! Lastly, who will make their way back to MotoGP with the upcoming changes coming our way for the 2027 season, will we see Suzuki make a come back, or will BMW steal the teams out from under Ducati to make their presence known in the top racing class in the world!!!!

2024 Track season for JKMoto is essentially over and as we prepare for next season and what the future will bring, we also often look back and reflect on what we've done!! To make that a little easier we decided to bring on a guest that joined us for many of the motorcycle adventures of 2025!! If there were such thing as a track son, Kelly would fit that bill for the JKMoto Team, but he also has an interesting back story that led him to eventually riding motorcycles and doing track days. From a Toyota Corolla, to 2 different sport bikes and 6 different race tracks under his belt, Kelly has quite the track record already and has a very interesting learning curve due to being a brand new rider that hit the track so early on! Stay tuned for the rest of an amazing story and quick recap of some of the adventures of the year!!!

With the holiday season upon us many are out Christmas shopping and spending their money on cheer!! Don't forget that the 2025 race season is right around the corner, we don't know about you but for us just send tires was our letter to Santa this year! While most of the world is enjoying left over turkey and beginning the decorating for the season, KTM is inching dangerously close to a bankruptcy that could leave them out of MotoGP next year. While that's happening inside the Austrian company, CFMoto a relatively new Chinese motorcycle manufacturer surprises us with a new design for a liter bike!! Beyond the bike financial world news, remember that many clubs across the nation are posting their schedules up for the new year, so don't forget to pull some of that Christmas money aside and purchase a race license!!

It was about time we finally made a trip to the campus to visit Josh, the man behind the weekly riding tips!! From private coaching, to flat tracking, mini motos, and just an all around fun filled weekend on two wheels, this trip truly had it all! We decided it would be best to bring on Josh himself to help tell the stories about the trip down to Motor Speedway Resort Houston!! As track day junkies we have made some pretty insane trips to see race tracks all over the US, but this trip will definitely go down in the record books. Easton got his first actual taste of dirt, and the JKMoto crew proved the effectiveness of Josh's training camp by brining a brand new rider along for the trip! Tune in and enjoy as we unpack this eventful weekend!!!

This week, on your favorite weekly motorcycle podcast, we decided it was about time we talked to unique guest and certified fast guy Kreece Elliott!! From a first track day at 11 years old on a not so small Ducati, to racing Moto America, and racing locally on an R1 Kreece seems like he's already done it all!! Luckily he isn't anywhere near done yet and still has plans for a future in motorcycle racing as he makes his way up in bike sizes and up the ranks in the United States. Colorado has a limited riding season with all the snow and cold in the winter, so we'll get to hear plenty more stories than just those of his local racing. From traveling down to California in the winter, to traveling out to the east coast for multiple Moto America rounds, this episode is truly coast to coast!!! Sit back and enjoy as we get a look into the young racer's life!!

BMW saw all of the concepts of the 2025 M1000RR with much larger wings, and well, they made them true. Not only did the M1000RR get bigger wings and more HP but the S1000RR also got a few upgrades, that also include bigger wings and more HP. But besides BMW and their new bike upgrades for the coming year, MotoGP continues to give us amazing battles and an almost never ending title fight. Martin and Bagnaia gave us some of the best battling MotoGP has seen in a long time, although only for the first 5 laps it was definitely amazing to watch. The other news we have is the official change of the last round due to natural disaster events in Valencia, we will end the season in Barcelona. Who will win? Martin could be the first satellite championship winner ever, Bagnaia could retain his 2 year running title, or lose it moving into the 2025 season. Much excitement awaits and we're here to tell about it all!!

From down under we bring the recap of an amazing and exciting weekend of motorcycle racing!! This week's MotoGP "daredevils" took on one of the top favorite tracks of motorsport enthusiasts world wide, and delivered an epic battle for victory at Phillip Island! From qualifying 2nd to losing it quickly in both and sprint and the race, then regaining places to fight at the top, Marc Marquez definitely left it all on the table to prove he still belongs and deserves his ride next year!! Jorge Martin did not disappoint either, with a lap fast enough to put him on pole, he fought hard to keep ahead of the reigning world champion and score some much needed points before moving forward to the final 3 rounds of the season. In the northern hemisphere we crowned a new world champion "The Alien" Toprak completed what was needed to prove that both he and BMW do have what it takes to run with the top dogs and secure a season full of wins!!

While we'll always still cover MotoGP, this week Japan had some "normal" racing that didn't bring too much excitement. Marc Marquez did not set a lap record so we'll definitely touch on that, but besides that and both he and Martin moving toward the front from way back there wasn't a ton going on. In other news and in a different part of the world World SuperBike remains "superior" racing with excitement for the full length, all the way up to a .003 second win!! To wrap things up this week, Yamaha announced a new motorcycle the R9, and we've got some things to say about it. Despite Yamaha trying to keep some things secret about their new 2025 model, it's pretty easy to speculate what those secret numbers will be, and the biggest question is where this bike will live in the club racing world!! Questions that remain to be answered but are great to ponder on! So sit back and relax as we unwrap another great episode of your favorite weekly motorcycle podcast!!

Moto America has officially come to an end for 2024 so it's time for a little season recap! From the start of the season it appeared that we would have a repeat of the previous years, but the Red Mist rose to the fight and secured himself another championship win after 11 years without! Beyond Josh ending an 11 year drought for himself he also secured Ducati their first in 16 years!! Outside of Moto America we travel across the pond to cover the weekend with WSBK where Toprak continues to gain the points he needs to also secure a championship. Most would say he has that nailed down, but the season is far from over and anything could happen. In the land of Moto GP we had quite the weekend with Jorge Martin making everyone question his odds of winning a championship on the Ducati. Meanwhile on Sunday Marquez and Bastianini both lost some hefty points in the fight due to DNF's.

This week we bring you a very special episode as we partner with Joe Adams from Slick Talk Podcast (Powered by Blackstone Laboratories)!!! Located in Indiana USA, Blackstone Labs analyses all sorts of oil and honestly just fluids in general, but one of those items specifically is motorcycle oil!! Here at JKMoto Podcast we've always been curious how often you actually need to change the oil on a race/track bike as opposed to a "street" motorcycle. Often when searching the marketplace or talking to club racers and junkies alike, you'll see that oil is changed after every day that a motorcycle spends on the race track. Whether or not that is an exaggerated frequency, or people are actually changing their oil that often, we decided to call in an expert and see what they had to say! Not only about oil change frequencies, but also what other awesome benefits you can gain from oil analysis! So enjoy this weeks episode with "Blackstone Joe" Adams and send them a sample to see what the overall health of your oil and motorcycle engine actually is!!

Last week we missed Kohl as he was off on grand adventures racing motorcycles in the High Plains of Colorado!! Legion Superbike, a brand new traveling race series based in Colorado held their "last" round at High Plains Raceway and Kohl was out there to check it out. So if you're looking to hear all about his experience and being High in the Plains while racing motorcycles this is the episode for you!!! Beyond just Kohls' awesome weekend we did have another week in a row of Moto GP racing, and since we didn't cover MotoGP last week, we had a lot to catch up on!! When we say a lot to catch up on, we're mostly talking about all the drama that has occurred over the last two weeks. A certain rider has, after quite a period of drought, found him self back on the top and won not just 1 but 2 races in a row now! This "new" success from Marquez has struck some chords across the paddock and is of course all the talk. But hidden in the background is just the simple drama of two very talented Ducati riders continuing to hand the championship lead back and forth between them! So make sure you stick around for the entire episode, there is a lot to unwrap this week!! https://www.bittingermotorsports.com/ (Weekly Tip: Sorting Fact from Fiction) MotoGP Fantasy League Code: CVYZ2MY7 (log onto MotoGP Fantasy and enter code or search JKMoto Podcast) https://fantasy.motogp.com/

This week we decided it was about time we walked you through the ins and outs of your first season of club racing!! Maybe you've been thinking about it for a while, or maybe you just started track days but gained some speed quick and know that's the next step. Whatever the case, we're here to give you a quick rundown on how that process looks, and what steps you will need to take for you and your bike! Not only is there the physical side of building a race bike and acquiring your race license, racing entails quite a large mental game, and the 1st season can operate much smoother with some planning and forethought put in!! From the beginning there is so much to wrap your head around and to think about before you tackle the amazing addiction that is Club Racing motorcycles!!! So we decided to share some of our experiences and knowledge on the subject before the winter so you can have plenty of time to accomplish everything and be ready for winning in 2025!!

JKMoto: a weekly motorcycle podcast for the everyday rider, covering current bike and racing news, specializing in Track Days, Club racing, and great entertainment. We Truly do it all! Another week down and another great week of motorcycle racing all over the world!!! MotoGP continues another great season of two very talented riders trading who holds the top place week after week, but another rider is slowly emerging from behind. Does Bastianini have enough time left in the season or is it too late? Does he even have the talent to give it a fighting shot? Another big question that will remain unanswered until next season is just how much talent Marc Marquez has left in the tank, and whether he will be able to show it next year on the top Ducati equipment on the grid!! Much to still be answered and we're here to deliver it all. Back home here in America we had quite an eventful weekend at Mid Ohio returning after a long absence, was Josh Herrin just lucky to have raced there in the past, or does he have the talent to pull off a championship win this 2024 season? Will rain continue to affect Moto America at almost every race? Beyond all the racing of course we'll give you any and all coverage of our own riding adventures which took place this week at the infamous Road Atlanta!!!

This week we bring you yet another amazing episode from your favorite weekly motorcycle podcast! From weather to movie critiques to race coverage, we fit it all in there. MotoGP's championship this year remains extremely tight in the point leaving many of us wondering who will actually take the title, there are still quite a few races left and the top two are definitely the most likely, but there are others starting to stretch their colors a little. With the nearing of the end of the season we do also have a few 2025 rides to wrap up and decide where everyone on the grid this year will race for next season. On the other side of world motorcycle racing we have another perfect weekend for Toprak on his unstoppable BMW!! Beyond racing this week, we did have a new motorcycle movie hit the world, specifically one on club racing that we think is probably worth checking out, but don't hold your breath for it!!
