Suppose you could work anywhere in this state; Great roads, offroad trails, scenery, outdoors, and a relaxed vibe. Where would that be?

I’ve yet to come across grips that are designed like the OEM grips - with grooves/slots built in to the ends that fit over the lips of throttle tubes. (Dirt bike throttle tubes don’t have this issue but a lot of street bikes do) Sorry for the confusing post, I lack the proper grip terminology...

Why do cruiser riders like such thick hand grips? If it’s comfort, do any sport, sporttouring, or adventure bikes do this? Contrarily, do any cruiser riders like sporty grips?

I’ve accumulated these wrong sized items over time. Hoping someone can make use of them at a good price. -Dainese/Ducati leather pants with unused knee pucks. Size 38/48. $175 -SOLD Racer USA high Gloves - kangaroo leathers, supple, strong, comfortable. XL. $125 -Shark RSR2 Miguel Duhamel...

Can someone recommend a handlebar for me? I want to get a lower rise and less swept handlebar on my Brutale but all the dirt bars I've seen have the rise too gradual so that the master brake and clutch cylinders would end up being on the curved portion of the rise. Who makes a selection of...

I was goofing around at Chaparral a few days ago and sat on a ktm 85sx. Its cockpit was surprisingly roomy. Let s just say it seemed like fun and who knows - it could help me work on some skills. Any full sized adults here own/ride mini dirtbikes? Were they big wheel conversions? Do it? Don t...

I pushed my hot bike into the dark garage last night and didn't see the car cover on the ground which melted black right onto my beautiful header pipes :( What can I do?

Price set at $6750 '11 FS570 with 2,700 miles. I don't like that I'm selling this one at all but someone else will enjoy this. Clean title, registration through 02/2018, two keys, original manuals, and tool kit. Modifications/additions: Full Akrapovic exhaust with proper mapping, sliders...

I'm gathering parts to fighter my RSVR. It's got gold Ohlin forks so I thought I'd match those up with a natural alloy finish triple/risers and some gold handlebars. Anyone know which handlebar company's gold color matches Ohlins' best? (Pro Taper, Renthal, Spiegler, Rizoma...) Btw, my ape...

A guy is selling a very nice :ride 2016 (120 miles) that I've been lusting over. He needs to sell to finance some medical expenses. Problem is he still owes the dealership. Is there any safe way to go about buying this badass bike from him? His plan is to write some contract up, pay off the...

Years ago, I got my first liter bike. Since then, I haven't looked at or considered 600's when looking at potential sport/naked bikes - it just sort of happened without me realizing. But now I'm curious. I'm wondering if that's been the case for most riders out there? Has anybody gone to...

Love this bike. I think more barfers can appreciate this than the general craigslist public. Those that haven't ridden one should see it in person. It's what's often referred to as a 2000.5 Mille. 17xxx miles. She is turn key and needs nothing. Clean title on non-op. -Factory 'R'...

Clean title, June 2017 green sticker (i've been riding it on tt tracks). I lost all the documentation of the frame and engine work, unfortunately. It is, however, heavily modified and runs great, which you can see in person. Only needs tires since they're weather-worn. Extras included will...

Moving and selling all but one of my rides. This one pains me particularly, seeing as it's practically new, is a ton of fun, and i just installed the extras. It's been run less than 10 hours since new, so it needs absolutely nothing. Ran on Belray H1R 2t oil and Belray gearsaver oil. Devol...
