I like the bikes quiet stock sound too. Noise just annoys others and also lets the cops know where you are when in the higher revs.

That's a great idea.

It's truly unbelievable that the laws are actually protecting the criminals instead of the victims. You can thank bleeding heart liberals, lawyers and people that just allow it all to happen without protest. I often quote the famous words of Edmond Burke. "All it takes for evil to triumph is for...

Good post Michael. Being as safe as we can be should be our primary concern. People think it wont happen to them like a friend that lost a leg. What is worth that?

These are the kind of guys that make gun laws tough on the rest of us. If you are this paranoid when you go out you're a loose canon. Not cool.

Thank you for that video. Safety can never be overemphasized. We have to expect the unexpected.

So sorry to hear about your pain. One second all is fine and then the next this happens. Hopefully we learn from our experiences. So what was the lesson you learned?

Maybe he has balls but for sure he doesn't have brains.

Since he has no respect for his life I don't really care if he looses it. I'm all for cleaning the gene pool of stupid people anyway. I am only concerned about him hurting innocent people. This kind of thing makes all the people in the cars he passed think what an a.. hole. It takes all bike...

Surf junkie is totally right! First buy her all the protective gear she needs. None of the superficial bike add ons will be important at all if she has an accident. Any of us that have had an injury can attest that pain, suffering and bodily harm should be avoided in every way available to us. A...

When it comes to anything that compromises safety for questionable looks I'll take the safety every time. Our stock mirrors may look odd to some (too me they look fine) but they are effective because the engineers designed them to stick out so you could see. Even with the stock ones I felt...

Any loud noise will take a permanent toll on your hearing especially as you get older. Imagine a world without sounds or greatly diminished hearing. Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) – this is hearing loss due to exposure to either a sudden, loud noise or exposure to loud noises for a period of...

Naples is one of my favorite cities. I have many fond memories from there. What a lot of fun to go across alligator alley through the glades on your bike. Thanks for your posts Marthy and Sage.

Do you guys that have actually tried the CNC bar end mirrors feel they have a better view than the stock mirrors? Better safety is most important to me. The look of the stock mirrors doesn't bother me at all. I feel they could have a better view of what's behind me. I put the little Pep Boy...
