    The Unrideables 1&2

    Reminiscing until our next Moto GP and watching The Unrideables on Amazon Prime. A pretty good documentary with the crazy 500's when America and Australia ruled the World. Their post race pressers were nuts and definitely not the corporate polished riders and statements of today. So crazy...

    Damn Arai!!!

    So irritated at the moment. I'm pretty good with taking care of my things and I managed to break the Arai demist lock tab on my Corsair V this weekend. For such a top tier helmet manufacturer I think it is such a weak design to what is a great helmet.

    World's Best Road | DHL |MotoGP Promo

    http://dhl.com/WorldsBestRoad I think this is a pretty good promo. What road would you choose? I'd probably pick Iceland just because there's not as much traffic density and the scenery would be really cool. How can you go wrong with 2300km of scenery and twisties? Another plus would be night...

    Behaving Badly: Lane Split Edition

    Caught this dude yesterday on 101S around Burlingame. FD was responding to a vehicular crash and this dude almost splattered himself on the Fire Truck. If this dude is a Barfer, just take it easy. You almost ended yourself and you might have ended others if these guys were responding to a life...

    Morons in the rain: Fremont stunters

    Today, south bound Mission Blvd from about Stevenson & Mission to well past the 680 interchange, 3 stunters riding wheelies across both lanes just after 13:15. I'll have to check my dash camera when I get home to post a vid, but this is the kind of shit that makes people hate motorcyclists. If...

    Listen to your gut.

    Before leaving the house today I got lazy about wearing my boots. For a short ride around town I thought my regular hiking boots would be good. Damn decision almost got me Fucked up. Dang shoelace got caught on the shifter pretty tight and almost had to pull over to dislodge it. It was so...

    Brembo Brake & Clutch Master Cylinders

    My Google-Fu isn't working or getting me the desired results. Do any of you know of a chart or guide online that lists the specs for the factory Brembo master cylinders used on the various modern Ducatis?

    Forcefield Pro Sub 4

    Anyone considering the Forcefield Pro Sub 4 should really try it on with their jacket or suit. I just got mine and it hasn't made my gear impossible to wear, but it has certainly made it a tighter fit. Compared to my A* Nucleon I feel more coverage in my tailbone area and it even feels wider at...

    Props to Cycle Gear Las Vegas (Decatur)

    I know Cycle Gear catches flak here sometimes, but this Vegas crew is solid. Nice guys and they've got a great closeout section. I just got a Dainese 1pc Crono (2015) for a song. It was missing the pucks, but they warrantied those out for me and slapped on a new set. Now I've just got to hit the...

    Injector cleaning

    Any reliable shop in the 510, 408, or 650 to clean injectors? With the bike down for the winter I'm going to start doing a lot of maintenance and reliability work so she's running solid in the spring track season.

    Close call: LEO

    Not satisfied to just idle the track bike in the driveway I hopped on to take it around the block. Nothing extreme, just in first gear about 500rpm over idle because of wet road and an old set of Super Corsas. I also don't want to be "That Neighbor". Anyways, I approach a corner and throw out...

    Back protectors

    Looking to replace my A* setup. Is the Forcefield Sub4 still the most effective with the lowest transfer of energy or has it been surpassed?
