    CBR Clip-On Risers

    A search is not returning much, so... I'd like to see options to raise the stock clip-ons on the old 954. The ageing body is begging for more comfort. HeliBars is the popular brand, but it doesn't seem they carry anything for the 954. Understandably. And that may be a blessing, as their risers...

    Your Exhausts Sound Great!

    Fellow SOMA/SoBeach Denizens: Your exhausts sound great! Both on sporty I4s. The first goes by 10 or so before 6am. Slowly, which is nice, because there are too many sleepy heads that early. The rider goes down the street in either first or second, high revs, the baffles nicely reverberating...

    Just Paid For 1/2 Of Nephew's Licence

    Lil' nephew has been wanting to try that two-wheel thing his three uncles do, but tier licencing ain't cheap, so, WTF, 'here's half, kiddo, and now go after the other half'. But wait, the poor sap sees himself on a Harley-Davidson. :rolleyes :laughing

    Recommend A Messenger Bag

    This one is tricky: 1. It has to look hip. I already own dopey bags and tankbags; 2. It has to stay up on the shoulder/upper back. I already own a POS bag that slides down to the butt or that rolls onto the belly; 3. It has to fit a laptop and a few other work goodies; 4. It has to be...

    How do YOU talk to people driving dangerously? (Part 1001)

    Perhaps the answer is simple: let the fool go, if he kills somebody, oh well. But... It happened again, about 9 this morning, NB Hwy 1, between Bodega Bay and Hwy 116, for hire saloon with Colorado licence, an older-than-me gent turning those 5-6 hairpin-ish left-hand bends IN THE LEFT LANE...

    For Those With Or Curious About Tinnitus

    Nice conversation, especially regarding prevention in the last seconds of the segment. No definite cure yet, but it sounds promising. Enjoy! https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/a-temporary-relief-for-tinnitus-sufferers/

    BBBB, Magnitude 4.4 Edition January 5 2018

    If you've been there, you know the drill. If it's your first time, Bay Bridge commuters stop by the 'entry' of Treasure Island, share coffee and eats, chit-chat, and carry on. I usually get there around 7, and confirmed, will bring a Starbucks Traveller box. Weather app is saying 50% chance of...

    Isle of Man TT on HBO

    Nice segment on Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. Gumbel has of lately become a bit of a nanny, but respected the TT for what it is. If you have HBO, enjoy it.

    Mobile Service While in the U.K.

    Off to the U.K. next month, the first time in donkey's years, definitely post the modern area of smart mobile phones. The plan is to attach the iPhone 6s to the handlebar as GPS-ish. Not constantly, only if and when in a hurry to find shelter, but otherwise "exploration" is part of the holiday...

    Buell Knocked Over, Stillman at 2nd, 6/29, 5p

    Hey, rider. Your Buell was on the side, and I've put it up. By the markings on the asphalt, it feels it was pushed a foot or so before it fell. The car parked next to it was small and 6-8 feet away, so likely not the culprit. Sorry there was nothing else I could've done.

    McKean and Uvas: Finally!

    These two have been in the bucket list since moving to the Bay Area and reading about them on teh barfs. Cute roads, a solid B for scenery, bumpy, nothing technical, good for n00bs. Definitely on the repeat list. Worth mentioning ... I was leisurely following a pick-up, 4-5 seconds behind. In a...

    Next Up, Renault-Nissan

    The Economist is reporting French regulator are onto Renault-Nissan for emissions cheating. How long before this trickles down to the motorbike world? VW owns Audi which in turns owns (a chunk of) Ducati. BMW, Honda and Suzuki have their own motorbike brands.
