    Residential parking in SF: new apt. strategies?

    Looking to move back to the city, but as you know it's hard to find a place with off-street parking, let alone something secured. I'm trying to target the rentals I look at based on finding an acceptable parking situation. Short of renting some private garage, are there particular neighborhoods...

    Aftermarket exhaust: weight savings a deciding factor?

    Sure the sound, looks, and performance benefits of new pipes are nice, but at the end of the day it seems mostly just bling, needing a Power Commander or other mods to really improve throttle response. My only nitpick with the Multistrada is the weight. Sure it's light for its class and when...

    Dunlop Roadsmart vs Michelin Pilot Road 2ct. Ready? FIGHT!

    So I got the Multistrada in for valve service and gonna put new rubber on. I'd gone in planning to get pr 2ct's for about $350 + mount, but changed my mind when they had the Roadsmarts for $70 less. Trolling the googles and mts forum it sounds like the dual compound Dunlops are getting about...

    SM Project bike ideas? 250cc street legal dirt bike?

    A buddy and I who are both kinda handy but still inexperienced wrenching on bikes have chatted about trying to cobble together / fix up a 250-ish, hopefully (prior) street legal dirt bike and turning it into a wannabe supermoto. Obviously the goal is both to learn wrenching and save money, but...

    Heavy duty boots for touring, not racing

    It seems like most tall boots are designed for racing on supersports with high pegs. What about for road / adventure touring, what's your choice on protection, fit, comfort, price, durability, etc? I have lowish cut Thor 50/50 dual sport boots which are pretty basic on the protection features...

    Fav sport/adv touring Boot? Vendramini Marathon?

    I'd seen a good review for the Gaerne GRS boots here on another thread, but skeptical of any full race boot for extended touring, especially on a full upright like the Multistrada or GS, etc. Reading about the Gaernes on webbikeworld, they said the fit was similar to the Vendramini Marathons...

    recco'd online tire shops

    Anyone have a suggestion on an online tire shop? Not necessarily looking for the cheapest, just cheaper than brick and mortar but still reliable. Pretty much considering the Pilot Road 2ct's in a 120/70 ZR17 and 180/55 ZR17 flavahs (for the Multi :ride)

    To sell or not to sell my '08 250r

    Thinking about putting up an ad for the forlorn Ninjette. Reasons to sell: -Already have a do-it-all bike (Multistrada), can save on insurance, reg -Really dislike the vibes from high RPMs -Theft magnet -Sell while it's still the new "hot" model -Can put the money towards a more capable backup...

    Broken parking meter in SF; safe?

    You guys know what it's like to park downtown. Today I came upon a 8-space meter that was totally dead. Strangely I was the only one to brave the parking. Anyone know offhand if they can/will ticket if parked there? It's not like you can feed the meter!

    Check your 6 on the Bay Bridge.......mkay?

    I know I'm :deadhorse and preaching to the choir, but I'm noticing a corresponding uptick in commute squiddery with "riding" season. Folks, when you're splitting all nicely between 1 and 2, please do check your 6 at least once per half hour, k? You might notice 3 other bikes behind you, one of...

    Do not ride Pescadero Creek Road

    It's boring and dangerous with potholes everywhere, broken glass, nails, fallen trees, oil slicks, plastic bags all blowing around that will engulf your helmet and melt on your engine, colonies of deer waiting to jump out in front of you, land mines, beached sharks with frickin laser beams on...

    Asshat bitter cager trash threat scenario #872: Let's just say were merging on I-80E in the diamond lane after clearing the Bay Bridge, you're feeling mellow and unhurried, staying in the right part of lane 1 / HOV (no shoulder on L), and some asshat who thinks he badass in his white minivan...
