About AllMoto

(Pic by Lou Martin)

AllMoto is run by Guy 'Guido' Allen. Since 1984 I've been writing/talking about motorcycles through magazines, video and radio (AMCN, Radio Rider and Motorcycle Trader, among others) on the web at various sites and have accidentally become a collector.

At the time of writing (Dec 2025) there are 25-ish bikes in the shed, across brands and eras from 1952 and up.

Being a glutton for financial punishment, I've also flown light aircraft across a couple of decades.

Plus I have had the honour of running Unique Cars magazine in print and digital forms for near enough to a decade and remain a contributor. So of course there are a bunch of tintops bending the wallet, as well.

AllMoto has existed as a name since the late eighties and has emerged as a digital publication a couple of times over the last few decades. The first time was as a weekly e-zine through the mid-to-late 1990s.

In case you were wondering about the creature in the AllMoto logo, it's a lemming riding a motorcycle. That's thanks to a long-term association with the Lemmings Motorcycle Club, which luxuriates in the motto Death before Courtesy. It's a long story...

This, the latest version, has the Motorcycle Investor tag attached. My thinking there was to separate it from the usual news-new-models-reviews cycle which is already amply covered by very capable people.

We all invest financially and emotionally in motorcycles, though more often than not they are an indulgence rather than a stake in our financial future. (That of course doesn't stop us from defending the purchase as an investment...)

This is a mix of collector views and features. Much of it talks about auctions and values, good buys, motorcycles that have passed through the shed, along with the occasional new or used bike review, or something that looks like it's interesting.

My motorcycle tastes are broad. One of the machines I'm currently enjoying most is a 1974 Harley-Aermacchi Sprint 350SS, a very basic air-cooled single.

However I have a soft spot for big and powerful sports-tourers (Blackbird, Hayabusa, first-gen Kawasaki ZX-12R, Daytona 1200), also some more traditional classics (Triumph T160, Vincent Rapide), full-house cruisers (Kings Mountain Indian Chief Vintage, Honda Valkyrie Interstate), the odd sports bike (Ducati 916, MV Agusta F4 1000 Nero), an adventure tourer (R1150GS) and a bunch of other stuff.

At the moment I'm mixing fresh work with stories from a deep well of I've been lucky enough to see published across the years. I hope you enjoy it.

The material is shared across Facebook (@allmotoblog), Instagram (@allmoto1), YouTube (youtube.com/allmoto), Substack (allmoto.substack.com) and of course this website at AllMoto.com.

I hope you enjoy it.
