    NYC to Newburgh and back, possibly de-tour to NJ skyline drive - July 26th, 2014

    I'm going to head up to Newburgh, NY this saturday leaving UES around 11 am. Thinking about riding up on the east side of Hudson, stopping by Motorcyclepedia museum and then heading back down through on the west side, possibly heading west to NJ Skyline Drive. No precise map in mind - I'm...

    Old Helmet

    combined bragging/question post... look what big brown truck brought to my house the other day: Nolan N104. bright bright yellow (pictures do not do it justice - this thing is blinding). After doing a lot of research and even toying with idea of completely disregarding DOT certification...

    Helmet Visor Tint Choice

    I have a dark smoke visor and i wear oakley flak jackets xlj underneath. At night, I change the oakley's lenses to orange or clears, and continue with the dark shield. Usually, the amount of light at night is sufficient for this setup. For my next helmet, i'm considering one with an internal...

    ATGATT is not enough....

    This is why I wear my Sidi Vertigo to bed... [emoji3] On a more serious note - sorry to hear that! Hope you recover quickly and ahead of the schedule. It is funny how small and seemingly minor things can ground us. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Motorcycle Gear shops in London - any recommendations? (want to check out Roof Boxer)

    Thanks, guys. I probably won't have time to get out of London (if only I could bring my gear with me, I'd rent a bike and go riding in a heart beat), but I may check out Urban Rider and Gorgeous Bikes. That's exactly what i'm counting on Blah

    Test-driven: WRX, BRZ, Accord, Civic Si

    Congrats on a Subie! Sounds like a good car - I've heard nothing but good stuff about the BRZ and its twin FRS.:rockon: PS: just looked at 2015 Rex - almost had a heart attack - almost thought they've overdone it with the interior. no, all is good - we have not jumped to a parallel universe...

    Motorcycle Gear shops in London - any recommendations? (want to check out Roof Boxer)

    I'm heading to London for a week for work, so I figured I'd use this as an opportunity to check out Roof Boxer helmets. They are not sold on this side of the pond, and I'm not going to buy a helmet without trying it on first. I'll be staying around Hyde Park - any recommendations on a...

    Laser headlights, forget xenon, Halogen is for kids!

    cheap conversion kit available on ebay in ... 3 ... 2 ... 1... only, unlike HID conversion kit, this one has the opposite problem - the beam is not scattered enough. The oncoming drivers are complaining of burned windshields and fried retinas.

    Tips for Protecting What You Love Most

    Very much true - if somebody wants it, they'll get it. At the end of the day, unless you anchor it, it doesn't take that much to pick the darn thing up and put it into a truck. True, that may be a noob approach (per chop-shop operator's comments), but, and I'm speaking from experience - when...

    Tips for Protecting What You Love Most

    funny... a UPS package is waiting for me today with a dowco weatherall cover and kryptonite fahgettaboudit chain. Dowco alarm is coming in tomorrow.

    NJ/PA Ride - Saturday - May 3, 2014

    I ended up venturing out today mid-day today, rode up to Bear Mountain and then down through palisades. Here is something you don't see all that often - met the owner at the overlook on the east side of Hudson, right before Bear Mountain Bridge. 1915 Harley Davidson - that's a 99 year old...
