    Podcast 661: Naked Bike, Ride

    2/02/2026 | 2h 7 mins.
    Liza is back from England, where she spent time at the Ace Cafe, as well as the Triumph Factory. It was here that she got to hang with some of the engineers who design the components for the new bikes, and they were all women! She also shares a UK trivia game that you can play along with.
    We learn the difference between a naked bike, ride and a naked, bike ride.
    A young man came to the garage on an old CM400 and was surprised at all the cool stuff he learned about why that bike is so cool.
    Jim is back from another Misfits desert trip to the Mojave, and has some cool stories including how to light the campfire the right way.
    Neal has an itch, which means it's time to start talking about what the next bike is going to be. He's also been working out to maintain his skills as a rider. What's your regimen?
    With Liza, Miss Emma, Neal, Naked Jim and Bagel.

    Podcast 660: Retro Episode w/Mike Corbin

    1/26/2026 | 1h 31 mins.
    We are dipping into our back catalog this week, with another of our favorites from way back. In 2015 we went to the Corbin factory in Hollister, set up a mobile studio in the R&D department, and interviewed the man himself, Mike Corbin. You may know him for his motorcycle seats, but there’s a reason he’s in the AMA Hall of Fame. He tells us about how he got started in the seat business, what crazy things he did in his younger days, setting a land speed record, starting a car company, and so much more.
    With Liza, Zach, Froot Loop, Bagel, Nak, Jonathon and Mike

    Podcast 659: Delete That

    1/19/2026 | 1h 59 mins.
    We had a beautiful sunny day in the garage, with lots of projects going on. Funnily enough, there were two people with the opposite problems with their clutch, that had the same solution. "Get rid of the judder spring" Emma exclaimed, which led us to a conversation. What other things had mechanics figured out that were better removed, even though the manual and schematics included them?
    We also talk about common misunderstanding with mechanics and shops, and Emma give her best advice on how NOT to piss off your mechanic.
    With Liza, Stumpy John, Miss Emma, Naked Jim and Bagel.

    The AimExpo in Anaheim was the place to be this week, and the Misfits were there. We saw old friends, new tech, and lots of bikes. We managed to get some really cool interviews with:
    Rekluse Clutch, Blue Armor Coms, Grip Edge Tools, Jess Stone and her dog Whimsy, Samco Sport Hoses, Tuff Jug, Yuasa, Motul, Motoz, and we even got an update on the big new announcement from Verge Motorcycles.

    Podcast 657:Retro episode It's All in the Design w/Darrin Caddes

    1/05/2026 | 1h 27 mins.
    Darrin Caddes may not be a name you know, but you know his work. Darrin is a designer who has worked for many companies, most recently Plantronics. But it’s his time with BMW and Indian that made a mark on the motorcycle industry. Ever heard of the BMW GSA? As in Adventure? Yep, he’s the one who turned the GS into the proper adventure bike we know today. Darrin shares his stories with us of the old school design process of sketching and sculpting to design components and whole bikes. He also tells us his story of why he never got to ride any of the bikes he designed. Enjoy.
