    Where Do You Get The Taki Grand Touring Grip

    Here is an update. Just got back from a 800+ mile day. There is no way I could have made it without these taki's. Like Randy says the linkadapters and the Taki's make a huge diff in riding longevity. I was on the bike for over 14 hours and today my hands are a little numb but no where near...

    Riding In Extreme Temperatures

    Had a big taste of heat last Saturday. Decided I needed to get home after a week of sweet riding in the Markleeville area of Calli. Ended up in Redding headed north at 1pm heading to Seattle. You could feel the heat build as I lowered my elevation. The temps in the valley were low 100's. I...

    Gasp -- A "breathable Jacket" ????

    I've been checking out some of these cooling options. For $29.95 plus shipping I don't see how you can beat it. The sahara vest is $88 from motorcycle closeout. If you want to try one of these vests check out soundrider.com. Don't worry I don't work there or have a vested interest. I'm just...

    Where Do You Get The Taki Grand Touring Grip

    Where Do You Get The Taki Grand Touring Grip

    Been searching for a spot to pickup the Taki Grand touring grips. Anyone have a good supplier and approximate price. They look like they really absorb vibration. Thanks

    To Abs Or Not Abs

    Now that I have had both, get the ABS. I am struggling adapting to the non-abs. I could brake way harder with the abs before you felt the shudder of the unit modulating the brakes. I'll get it figured out but dread the emergency stop I know i am going to have to make sooner or later...
