I've been switching back and forth between Dunlop "Road Smart" and Michelin "Pilot Road" for about 5 sets total. My avg mileage for both brands is 12,000 miles. Currently, I'm on Road Smart 3 tires because you can get a good deal on the last version of a tire when the new version appears. The...

I've used them for a while now. On my old helmet (GMAX Modular), they snugged underneath the little ear pockets and I wired the male plug to the rear of the helmet and zip tied it in place. There was room to leave the speakers in all the time comfortably. This, for me, was a game changer. It...

Peter, delighted to have you here! I'm also looking to do some long distance riding. I've about given up on the Iron Butt Society 50cc (50 hours cross country), but I am planning a camping trip to Omaha and back! Some "free" campsites along the way but mostly KOA. If you take some long rides...

Greetings from Temecula. I have a 2012 FJR. Welcome to the boards.

The support structure that covers the seat so you can use it to store a bag are impressive. Wow! I do wonder if they're necessary since the seat is already designed to hold a passenger (150lbs and above is not unreasonable). I do a lot of long distance touring/camping. All the tent gear goes in...
