Changing my tire last weekend I came face to face with the exhaust valve coming out of the cat on my bike. The DVT is known for the midrange torque dip, and seeing that the valve defaults to open with a spring and is pulled closed with a servo, I wondered what would happen if I defeated it...

This vest comes with refurbished Kevlar panels used by police, with a new black carrier. Size is Large, regular length. I am 5'8 with a 40 inch chest and 37 inch belly and it fits very well, and it overlaps in the belly on me so it would fit someone who is larger as well. $160 in downtown San...

These are 10 year old boots. There's a tear in the heel that I patched up with tough patching film 9 years ago...still holding. The velcro on the top of the boot has seen better days, it'll pop open sometimes if you really flex your ankle. Selling because I have 4E wide feet and the toe box was...

Selling 3 rifle cases. I've gone to soft cases because my car is full of other stuff all the time and these won't fit anymore. They're just taking up space in my closet. One double gun case, and two single gun cases. All will take scoped rifles. $40 for all of em. I'd prefer not to have to...

It took me 280 rounds to admit that my M&P 15 does not want to eat steel case ammo. Selling at 25 cents a round for a price of $180. You pick it up in downtown SJ or meet me at a shooting range around here (Reeds, Target Masters West). I need the excuse to go shooting anyway. Please only buy...

I'm selling the AR500.com level 3 curved plates with Line-X base coat. They are 10x12 inches. I'm also selling the Condor Sentry black plate carrier, with loops for accessories. It has a pistol holster, dual pistol mag pouch, and dual rifle mag pouch. I bought it just recently and haven't worn...

I'm selling these lightly used boots because I sold my dual sport bike and I don't have a use for them anymore. I probably rode only 12 hours in these. They're dusty (duh) and the right boot has a little scuff from a fall, honestly I had trouble finding it and had to remember which boot it was...

I got these jeans last year and wore them a few times. The fit just isn't right for me, the knee armor rides up my leg when I'm on the bike. $60 Some info and pics of the jeans here: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/65153/i/scorpion-covert-jeans

Selling an almost new AK pattern rifle I bought some months ago when there was a scare that CA would ban semi auto rifle sales. I have a Saiga and other rifles too, so this really doesn't see much range time. I probably have something like 100 rounds through it. Comes with a 30 round mag...

So having an old carb'd sport bike I never really got into the whole mapping thing. Got the carbs tuned when I got it, threw a pipe on at some point when the old one got crushed, and it's been good to go forever. Strong, idles well, smooth off idle, the damn thing barely notices the difference...

I figured this sort of thing had to be shared. wgpXyvOGM_Y

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=powered+parachute Powered Parachuting. One thing that struck me right away was the number of people attempting to fly without any kind of training. "Yeah, I'll just figure it out." OK, you'll figure out 3D movement, in wind, in a vehicle you never...

Anyone have any info on the availability of fully kevlar lined jeans, or any testing of the effectiveness of such jeans or kevlar liners? I saw some fully lined jeans for sale on a UK website for 200 pounds, and it seems Draggin Liners under whatever would be cheaper...if they work.

I'm becoming increasingly interested in the s1000r. It's not as sexy as the ktm but all the details make it sound practical and easy to live with. I especially like the dynamic damping control promise of on the fly adaptation to road and riding conditions. I am finding conflicting info however...

I always told myself that one day I'd get two piece leathers for street use made locally. Then I bought an alpinestars jacket on sale, and went through 4 pairs of pants chasing their insane sizing chart before realizing the pants were just of dubious quality for the cost. 400 bucks for something...

If I have written down settings for my suspension and am switching between riding conditions (two up, track, winter riding, etc), does it make a difference with my F4's conventional forks if I adjust preload or compression first? I have red it makes a difference in some forks due to the...

2013 crf250l Putting a feeler out there for my CRF250L. It's a nice bike and fun, but I have a single car garage chock full of bikes and I want to start riding two up with my girlfriend. The CRF does a lot of things, but two up touring isn't one of them. It has about 3k miles. I changed the...

Between crappy chip seals (mt Hamilton, mines) and absurd speed limits (redwood, frontside of 9) it is slowly becoming boring to ride in the Bay Area. There are a few decent roads left, but traffic tends to be high (84, San Jose soquel) or they start being a long way from home. Honestly I don't...

I got my 250L a few months ago and have gone to Hollister once and Metcalf a couple times. I've got maybe a few hundred miles in the dirt, and one minor getoff that busted some turn signals etc. I've figured out a few things about my 250L: Turn signals, mirrors, etc on the dirt are a bummer...
