And gets more fugly. :wow http://hellforleathermagazine.com/2012/10/suzukis-bringing-back-the-v-strom-1000/

So my Multistrada's seat is starting to look more than a little rough around the edges. Actually one side of it's starting to come apart. It was never that comfortable to begin with so I planned on replacing it. I stumbled across an upholstery place in Palo Alto that will redo it and replace the...

So I've been on the hunt for a dual sport boot for some time to replace my falling apart A* Ridge half boots. I'd narrowed it down to couple, finally tried them all on and both the Gaerne Balance Oiled and Sidi Discovery Rain's are the only boots that come close to fitting but both have this...

Looking for a decent stand that fit my multistrada. I'd rather buy used but if have to I'll just order the damn thing from pitbull. :laughing

Anybody know of one? I want to check out the G-Midland and Balance Oiled trial/dualsport boots from them. :)

So my Multistrada came with a set of almost brand new Qualifers on in it. I've put close to 3k miles on them in 2 months and I've found they were okay. I didn't really like them in the rain which was the whole first month I owned the bike, in the dry they are great but I've noticed lately the...

A cool starry bra. Now that is out of the way. So last night around 1am I leave a friend's place to head home. It's about time to gas up the Multistrada, she's got a 150ish miles on this tank. Which should be good for another 25 at least. Stop at the only gas station on my way home before...

Thanks, no really. I can totally understand how someone riding a bike round with no plates at 1am is a little suspicious. Sorry it took so long to notice you behind me, the stock mirrors on the Multistrada are criminally terrible at actually being mirrors. As soon as I noticed the red lights...

This may seem odd by my mom is in SF for a medical conference, she's never been to the west coast and would like to see some red woods. I was thinking about taking her up to Point Reyes Station because she's got a thing for beaches too but I've not really explored the north bay much at all. I'd...

Meet Dev, a new old stock 2004 MTS 1000 DS with 5k miles on her. The ride over 17 home was not the most pleasant thing ever but she took it like a champ! Heated grips and a little fairing make riding in this weather way more tolerable. :teeth

Just accepted state farm's settlement offer so it's time to start looking as I should have the money in a week tops. I'm looking for an 03-05 Multistrada 1000 DS or 05-06 620 or a 02-04 Futura. My budget is ~4500-5000. Hard bags or at least a top case is a must. Mileage is not a huge deal as...

So shortly I should be getting my check from State Farm soon then shopping for a helmet. My last two have been Silver, modulars (HJC BT-Max and then Exo-900). Lately I've been borrowing a Black Exo-1000 (still new in box.. Housemate bought it for Auto-X which he has decided he's done with). I've...

Last week I went down on one of the pullovers on Uvas, State Farm needs the bike assessed and Moto Italiano is Santa Cruz is going to do it. I called them on Thursday and originally they were going to arrange a free tow. It's been 4 days and they still haven't been able to do it. I don't have a...

My two housemates and I where pulling off onto a rest/parking area along the side Uvas opposite the reservior. Tixens has been riding for almost 7 years.. I was riding tail.. with a whole 9 months of riding every day under all conditions and in the middle was my other housemate who has about...

Thank you soo much Sasquatch! I'm sold and their will be a Futura in my garage by spring! :thumbup I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on a new bike and I've narrowed things down to a Multistrada or the Futura. I have put some seat time on the Multi but not the Futura and I'm concerned about...

End up with bikes like this? I mean.. how do you not look up what it is you are selling when you try to sell it? It's a freaking GTS1000.. I've seen one once in person and I knew with out looking at the pictures what it was. Pictures confirm it's a GTS what with the RADD swing arm...

So this morning it was cold.. in the 40s and I don't have any winter gear yet. I have a first gear mesh/textile blend (can't remember the name right now) and when it got cool I put the rain liner and it was great. This morning sucked. I've been trying to decide on a decent 3/4ths textile jacket...

SOLD I'm interested in trading (or possibly selling) my 1999 Monster 750 because I want something with fairings for the winter. Price: SOLD Year: 1999 Mileage: 23,000 (This will increase as it's my only transportation) Title: Salvage history (Was salvaged and inspected for title previously)...

So I got to do a demo ride on a 2011 Tiger 800 today. I was absolutely floored. Basically because CalMoto doesn't have any demo F800 (I'm really interested in the ST) and I can't demo a Vstrom I wanted to find out if I'd be comfortable riding something as tall as the Tiger. I can safely say I...
