CURATED CREATOR

RevZilla

RevZilla’s Common Tread XP brings motorcycle travel into a spirit of experiment and discovery. Hosts Ari and Zack take on journeys and riding challenges that put different machines, routes and ideas to the test.

About the creator

RevZilla is an expert-driven video resource for the motorcycle riding community, known for product reviews and how-to coverage. Common Tread XP gives that practical interest a travel-oriented frame: its hosts seek out authentic experiences, question familiar assumptions and keep the emphasis on enjoyment on two wheels. The series ranges across machines old and new, from vintage motorcycles on long-distance trips to comparisons between contemporary models. Its journeys reach places including Wyoming, Alaska and the route from Vermont to Canada, while other outings take in a road trip to Sturgis and a ride described as following the world’s highest road. Together, these films make RevZilla a distinctive presence in a curated motorcycle-travel library, pairing a knowledge of bikes with a willingness to see what happens beyond the usual test ride.

What to expect

Expect travel documentaries shaped by a clear premise rather than a single kind of motorcycle or route. A journey might compare two vintage bikes over hundreds of miles, or use a small-displacement motorcycle to explore the demands of a much longer ride. Alongside those trips, Common Tread XP tests ideas about city riding, beginner motorcycles, touring and adventure machines. The tone is curious and hands-on: questions are posed through the ride itself, with the motorcycles and the challenges they encounter kept in focus. For viewers, the appeal lies in seeing how varied bikes perform across real journeys, and in following hosts who treat the road as both destination and experiment.
