Getting a leather jacket but can't decide on perforated or non-perf. These past few weekend mornings have been pretty cool up on the hill, so the extra wind protection would be nice. But then I think of summer and the heat. Just doing weekend riding in the south bay. Opinions?

How to fight big bidness and take down the man? :dunno

Pages take quite a while to load when posting a reply. Is some periodic database maintenance required?

It's about time to replace my chain. Suggestions on an inexpensive breaker/rivet kit or just have a shop do it?

https://www.compmag.net/ "Permanently" attached magazine, loaded from the side. Makes AK47/AR15 no longer considered assault weapons because no detachable magazine. Just moved back from TX with my AK and really would like to keep the pistol grip.

Used to go to Road Rider (15 years ago :wow ). But I see they're now closed. Where's the "go to" place to get a tire mounted/balanced in the south bay?

:applause

Last weekend outside of Austin: Rider survived with several broken bones. https://www.reddit.com/r/CalamariRaceTeam/comments/64dtxi/yammienoob_squidding_it_up_on_destination_way/

So here in TX, there's this set of roads called the 3 Twisted Sisters.... but they're quite a bit west of Austin (~3hour ride to get there, and 3 hours back). With my cotton Hanes boxer-briefs and Levis, by the time I reach the roads, my ass is already pinkish, to say nothing about after the...

So the last time I had to buy tires (~2003), I got a BT010 front and BT020 rear for my SV. I need tires again for my FZ8, and looking at the different Bridgestone models, I have no idea what the differences between all the BT0xx models. Went out for a ride this morning, when I left the house...

Congrats Chris Siglin! I haven't really paid much attention to the races (being in Austin, TX these days), but I just got an email announcing AFM's top rider results, and Siggy [:teeth] is #1 for 'Formula Pacific' and tied for 1st in 'Open Superbike'. Normally, I wouldn't care, but I remember...

Just installed a set of Givi engine guards on the FZ8. Can't wait to test them out. :wow

I guess the Handy Stands went out of production years ago. :afm199 What's the current hotness in cheap stands?

http://www.cyclegear.com/CycleGear/Street/Boots/Riding-Shoes/brand/BILT/Pit-Motorcycle-Boots/p/40398_59409_519 I already have a pair of *real* boots, but need something decent for around-town/riding to work. I used to have a pair of Alpinestars SF Riding Shoes which were great for this, but...

Want to buy this bike, but the seller is the original owner (2 years) and he financed it, so there's still an outstanding balance and the bank is the lienholder (Yamaha Finance). What's the best way to handle this? I was thinking about getting the payoff amount then getting a cashier's check...

Hello again friends! :Party Used to be a regular on BARF back in the day, then sold the bike, went back to college (Chico State) and graduated in December with a degree in CIS. Got a job down here in Austin [:wtf] (I know), and today completed the 1st half of the MSF course to get my MC...

Anyone else here non-competitive? There are so many folks who love trackdays, watching racing, etc, but personally, I'm not all into that. I like to speed safely and push myself in the corners at all that, but I don't feel the need to compete with others. Am I alone in this? Anyone else like...

Walked down to the Safeway on Nord and saw a (formerly red, now black) 88 NT650 in the parking lot. Left clip-on broken away along with tank and other damage. Would like to get in touch with the owner, if anyone knows who (s)he is.... mainly just to offer help in repairs. Couldn't tell if...

I'm a senior at Chico State majoring in Computer Information Systems (minor in Business Administration). I'm set to graduate this December and would like to find a summer internship. No real particulars in terms of the field.... I'm good with C++, learning Ruby (2nd semester currently), and...

Now that possession of <1oz has been reduced to an infraction in CA, I have a question with regards to probation. If I'm on "court probation" (no check-ins or anything like that) for DUI, would a possession ticket count as violating that probation? Or would only misdemeanors/felonies be...
