    Motus MST American V4 Sportbike

    Their website shows dealers....they have to be close. You are right......deeeeeep pockets. Let's hope the money doesn't run out. Buell did a lot for the industry....these guys could be similar. We're they even talking demo rides?

    Cell phone GPS

    It is if I put it in a waterproof cover....plus it has bluetooth....I can store it anywhere i want on the bike (my bike has top box and waterproof compartments) and it will notify me of upcoming turns.

    Agressive Motorpatrol's move passing a rider

    if emergency services waited for every vehicle to pull to the right before passing them most of us would be moaning at lengthy response times. The fact is sometimes we have to pass on the right when there is no other option.....but you better have lights and sirens on be prepared for the...

    RV + Motorcycle

    Remember you'll lose your truck bed for the receiver if you opt for a 5th wheel. I see lots of folks up our way with different configurations for rv's and motorcycles. If it were me I'd stay with the bike in the bed of the truck and a smaller trailer. The option of keeping your bike in the bed...

    Skully Helmets

    How lazy are we that cam't gaze down to our instrument panel or gps for the info we need? Sounds like a cool idea I admit but like Nelly said....my helmet is to protect my noggin....and I replace it every 5 years. With all those angles on the surface I'd hate to see how it would react in a real...

    Bell RS-1: Agressive, Sport Touring, or All Around?

    Shoei may have something for that issue. As your dealer or peak into the shoei site to see it they make something. I know there are aftermarket products but aren't shoei. Colour is?

    Where to buy kevlar?

    My only word of caution would be that the surrounding material needs to be strong enough to support the aramid (kevlar) in case of a slide. If the surrounding material isn't strong enough you can imagine the aramid bunching or being ripped from the material around it......leaving you pretty much...
