AlpineStar Boots BNIB - SOLD SPF, no longer available. I have a set of AlpineStar Ridge waterproof boots in the box 43euro/10 usa. $70 gets 'em. I also have the very same boot in the same size worn but not very much. Willing to let those go for $30. or Buy both for $90...

Thinking about getting a set of the Gortex versions. Anyone use these? Currently wearing SMX-5 and they are about ready to rotate out. I am 8.5/9W depending on the shoe, but my current SMX's are 45euro size and fit well. So hard to figure shoe sizes these days. Pro's/con's, suggestions?

I've heard three main ways they break-in. 1.) First 30 turns. 2.) First 100 miles. 3.) Heat cycles. I'm kind of leaning to scuffing them up with some slow but leaned turns and some heat cycles and giving them 100 miles till they can be used in a spirited manner. So I'm thinking it's a...

It's that time again... the TT! Take a ride with Hutchinson. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vxjc5VWjzk

This takes the cake! http://wfla.com/2016/05/31/habitual-traffic-offender-in-pasco-jail-after-running-over-motorcycle/ They caught the SOB and apparently he's a habitual offender.

I give you the Bike Mine. http://www.gizmag.com/bike-mine-explosive-alarm/43300/ Not sure everyone would accept this, but it's interesting.

Thumbs up! My friend was going there today, in the rain and I wanted to keep him company. He was going to get his suspension dialed in finally and didn't know what place he was going to, just had an address, so I went along. Imagine my surprise when I saw the Catalyst sign in the driveway...

The guy everyone laps. Yesterday I took Keith Code's Superbike School - level 1, at Sears Point. My friend loaned me his GSXR 750. Really outstanding of him! He said it was already rashed, so no worries, but truth be told I was unable to wrap my mind around anything other than giving it back...

No big whoop really, but a crossing of the Rubicon for me. Took my kid for a ride Friday. I had gotten her a jacket, helmet, gloves, but she needed pants and boots, so we went to Cycle Gear and got her some. With gear acquired, we mounted up and took off. Plan was to go to San Benito House...

On the advice I got here, I took my leathers to Johnsons. I needed a zipper to hook the jacket and pants together. A* jacket to Spidi pants - no go. They removed the existing zippers and replaced them with a high quality zipper. Had to break down the pants to do it, the jacket was no...

Need a one piece suit because I am taking a level 1 course at Sears Point in September. I could have a zipper installed on my two piece leathers and if it doesn't make sense to get a one piece, that's an option. I was thinking about using it after the training, foul weather, long distance...

Got a letter from BMW stating my roadside assist was about to expire. Bought my bike new in 2012, so far so good. Question is, what's best? BMW roadside assist, CC Tow, or just screw it and go with our local roadside angels. I'd prefer not to trouble anyone if I break down, truth be told, so...

Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAo0LWQFxdE&feature=youtu.be
