    North Carolina Highway Mileage Tax

    Sorry, but that is some **** right there! Well, first if I were a citizen of NC I would not allow this state owned device to be place in my privately owned vehicle that is a GPS tracking device. (Side Bar) Not only is this device tracking my mileage in and out of state, but it can be used to...

    Next EOM?

    I attended NAFO 1 and enjoyed the hell out of it! Met up with Wombow and donaldb from Mississippi on the way out and rode through the northern side of Nebraska over to The Bad Lands and Rapid City, what a great diversion! The ride back home through Kansas and Missouri for that matter were...

    Vega Touring Boot - Review

    The Vega Touring Boot: I was looking for motorcycle boots this summer for my NAFO trip. Previously, I had been wearing a Wolverine waterproof work boot with a steel toe and shank that I purchased from Wally-World. Very good boot but it was lacking in the shin and ankle protection. Doing sone...

    Cockpit Covers with no top case

    Bradley, Even though you don't have a top case now, if you keep the bike long, you will eventually have a top case. Get the Nelson-Rigg UV-2000 XL, you can't go wrong with it. It fits fine with or without the top box. V.
