    Non leather riding Jacket?

    I just bought a waxed cotton Rev'It Melville and am digging it. I had looked on Revzilla and one other place that I can't remember but they were sold out of all sizes, both colors. Found it on a site calle Motorcycle Superstore in the brown finish I was looking for. Great looking jacket, less...

    Lets see a picture of your first motorcycle, scooter, moped or mini bike!!!

    Here's my first (black CB650) and second (green CB200). Well, to be completely honest, my first was/is a '78 Kawasaki KZ650, but in the 2-1/2 years I've had it I've only ridden it around the block, so it doesn't count. Thinking about finally getting it on the road by the end of winter, after...

They've always treated me right, and have given me a deal or two now that they...

    Why "The Scene" sucks so bad...

    I've listened to indie music for years, bought a pair of Ray-Bans on Friday, have had a CB200 for a year or so, and had a CB650 for a couple of years. Sorry to be so offensive. Where's that beer?

    Invisible Helmet

    Cool video. I was watching, thinking "yeah, typical designer idealism without delivering much realism" and then BAM! My mind was blown all over the place by a protective hood being blown up around the rider's head. I can see it working for bicycles, but it would need some serious abrasion...

    Why did you pick THAT bike to build?

    I've only been riding for a couple of years, and my first bike was a slightly-modded CB650. I don't like to follow trends, so I was a bit apprehensive about getting a CB, considering its ubiquity. But I figured I had to start somewhere, and why not at least start with something reliable and...
