    Brakes "Skipping" at end of Braking Cycle

    I noticed a problem with my brakes the other day. At the end of a deceleration cycle, say reducing to speeds suitable for a right hand turn, I feel a cyclical grab then release from the front brakes. If you think about ABS grabbing and releasing, but with a far lower frequency, it might give...

    Side Stand Foot Enlarger

    I'm looking at side stand foot enlargers. I'd never considered one before but I am running over to a site I leased for a garden and gravel and soft sand are the primary surfaces. I'm seeing devices for ¢.79 up to about $50.00. This sounds like a really stupid question as I am typing it, but...

    Hurt Report

    Many of us have probably seen the Hurt Report major findings. I posted them on another forum today and thought it might be good to share here too. Approximately three-quarters of these motorcycle accidents involved collision with another vehicle, which was most usually a passenger...

    Looking For Opinions: Touring Mods

    I am seeking opinions on this so there really is no right or wrong. I want to go on two longer rides in the next three years; one to Canada and the other out west to a place to be named later. I was planning on buying a bike that would also be an all rounder but with a little more power, better...

    Electric Bikes For Motor Cops

    For me, as a retired cop, this is very cool! I have no idea how this escaped my attention for so long. @670cc I thought you'd be particularly interested. https://illumination.duke-energy.com/articles/electric-police-motorcycles-help-florida-city-meet-sustainability-goals

    Question How to cut down a screen?

    This may seem like a basic question but what is the proper way to cut down a screen? I may or may not cut it down, just considering it. I am pretty particular and don't want to screw it up if I do decide to do it.

    Schuberth C5 To Replace An Arai Signet X, Fits a Long Oval Head

    I purchased the Schuberth C5. I'm not trying to open the discussion on how long one should continue wearing a helmet, but the Arai was six years old, the detents stopped holding the visor, and the protective wings that cover the visor mechanism blew off and broke free of their lanyards. Plus...

    Perishable Skills

    There have been quite a few posts here lately that reminded me that riding skills, like every skill we learn, have a shelf life. I try to remain cognizant of this fact and practice certain skills routinely to keep them fresh (emergency braking, swerving, low speed drills, etc.) I also watch...

    Noco Battery

    I popped in the Noco lithium battery today. It was nice that they include spacers to make up the difference in size between the lead acid and smaller lithium battery. The weight of the two batteries are significantly different though I’m not certain that translates into any real operational...

    Comedian Tim Hawkins

    My wife and I, along with another couple, went to go see this guy tonight. He is a Christian comedian and was one of the funniest I've ever seen! He's on tour now and if you get the chance, I would highly recommend seeing him. So incredibly funny and it wasn't an F-bomb every other word...
