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.

Don't be fooled though, we also covered plenty of other racing all over the world taking us from Italy with MotoGP, to a different part of Italy with WSBK, and even diving into the dirt world a little to talk about the end of the SuperCross season!

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/

As we approach the fall/winter season of 2024 we thought it would be time to check in with Josh Bittinger down and Texas and see what he's been up to. If you thought he was just hanging out down there not doing much, think again!! From moving his head quarters to track side, working with MSRH to build a better facility, all the way to kicking off a new youth training program for America this man has been busy!! Among these awesome updates we'll also get some updates from the Ridesmart side of the house as they make some larger footprints across the country! Maybe the best part of having Josh in house for this week's episode is being able to discuss the weekly riding tip with the author first hand, and this week we even had a Bonus Tip for Coaches!! Enjoy this week's episode as we dive into what has changed in the motorcycle world for Texas and for us all!!

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!!

In the motorcycle racing world this week we had a Race of Champions hosted by Ducati to close out their World Ducati Week at Misano. An all new Ducati Panigale V4S meant Ducati needed to prove the bikes worth and had all their current riders on a world stage race a 10 lap showdown at the famed Italian circuit! With only a few minor changes to make them racing safe, these bikes are all on the same suspension with the same engines, the same brakes, and the exact same rider setup no matter which champion is sitting in the saddle. For the world this meant we get to see Marquez and Bagnaia compete on the same equipment, for us at JKMoto Podcast it meant we got to see what type of excuses different riders make for not winning a non-point gaining race. From Martin being in the back of the pack, to Bautista being passed by almost the entire field there was much to consider when figuring out if these riders were trying or not. Whatever the case we're here to tell you all about it in another great episode of your favorite weekly motorcycle podcast!!!
