Episode 9: V4s, Retirements, Electric Motocross, and More

In this episode of the Bore and Stoke podcast, the MO crew breaks down the latest motorcycle news and hot topics. We start with the big news of Yamaha introducing its V4 MotoGP prototype at the San Marino GP, September 12-14, 2025, which breaks away from the YZF-M1’s long-standing Inline-Four configuration. With that new chapter opening, another one closes with Jonathan Rea announcing he will retire at the end of the season. In other racing news, we discuss Stark Future entering the World Supercross Championship, plus the Harley-Davidson Bagger World Cup’s debut race schedule. We also look at Honda's latest dual-sport, new bikes from Husqvarna and KTM, and the mystery of the Yamaha RW700.
