- From: manybikes
-
Description:

You will get a better understanding of how the technology works and an even better understanding of the superior quality and dedication to the customer that National Cycle brings to the motorcycle industry.

Windshield Mounting Kits: Strong, sleek, elegant and functional! QuickSet4 secures your SwitchBlade windshield with bulldog tenacity, but is attractive and refined when the shield is off. Our innovative Cushion Wheel spools turn and flex, allowing the shield to lock into place with a reassuring "pop". Want to remove or change the shield? A gentle tug is all that is needed.Windshield Lowers Chrome Lowers extend the protection of your SwitchBlade windshield and, with a National Cycle Light Bar, form an integrated front end look. We engineer our Chrome Lowers with these other components to ensure proper fit and appearance. Designed specifically to fit with our innovative QuickSet4 SwitchBlade windshield mounts.

AirHawk Tip of the Week from C
- From: manybikes
-
Description:
Kyle Bradshaw meets with Greg Beck of Tucker Rocky to discuss AirHawk Seat Cushions by the ROHO Company.
AirHawk seat cushions have been providing comfort to the world for over 33 years after getting their start in the medical world. Their products have been lifesavers for those bedridden and wheelchair bound by providing a product which eliminates hot spots and bed sores.
In 2004 ROHO decided to bring these products into the motorcycle world by offering motorcycle specific cushions they named AirHawk.
The AirHawk is an air cushion featuring shape fitting technology which is in essence a system of soft flexible air cells interconnected by small channels that allows air to flow from one cell to another at a controlled rate. This is what sets the ROHO AirHawk apart from the rest of the gel or memory foam seat pads on the market. The AirHawk has the ability to protect the body from multiple forces such as fatigue, pressure, friction, sock, vibration, and much more...
For the Ultimate Air Ride, give the AirHawk a spin and you'll have a grin!

not dead yet, what now?
- From: copperguy

Description:So, I was looking in the barn this morning, 16'x28'. Three boys, two raised and gone, last one almost 16. Do you ever get your space back? Ya I know you will miss them when they are gone, bla,bla,bla, But how long do I hold onto their crap, what do I do with all the toys,dirt bikes, go kart???? let alone the amount of bikes we have collected.This pic is only the tip of the ice berg. it does not show what is next to me and in the loft. NO TORNADO could carry this barn away. To long to wait for Grandbabies, let alone, long enough for them to grow up to enjoy this stuff, but I surely dont care to buy it all again IF I HAVE IT NOW. How did u all deal with empty nest??? I already went to neighbors house and asked if he hunted or fished, or just enjoyed shooting. To young to curl up and die. Everything I do, I have done with my boys. Not going to tell you it wont be nice to have a clean house. But for 25 years all the fishing,hunting,wrenching,target and sport shooting,mushroom hunting, ICE fishing, movie watching has all been with my boys. NONE OF THAT I DO WITH THE WIFE. Never thought I would live long enough to have such questions, but time is upon me. WOULD BE REAL INTERESTED in your stories relating to this problem.

When Ya got a "bad hip"
- From: CromagnaMan
-
Description:
A couple of members here recently wrote to me whining about how it was so hard to throw their legs over the saddle because of a recent comment I made about getting older and having a bad back and hips. I've know about this little "trick" of mounting my bike for years and was surprised that many folks don't know about it. Such as it is, here's a demonstration.

Frustration
- From: bjwaz
-
Description:
In August I order chrome parts from Cruiser Customizing. The order was being held up for a back ordered rear fender tip. I asked that the available items be shipped and they were. The fender tip delivery was delay until September. Then October, then November and now December. I canceled the order and will go buy one at the dealer. Why advertise parts that you can't seem to get??
I will never again order anything that is not in stock, if I order anything at all.

10 Things You Really Need - Te
- From: twest137
-
Description:
A list of ten essential items that everyone and anyone who rides a motorcycle should own.
1 An owner's manual
This is the most valuable tool you can own. It'll tell you everything you need to know about your motorcycle. Including how to tell when something's gone wrong.2 Tire pressure gauge
Even a cheap one is better than none. If you can't check and adjust your own tire pressures, you shouldn't be riding without adult supervision. Check them once a week or whenever you ride the thing.3 Four-way screwdriver
A halfway decent four-in-one screwdriver with interchangeable tips cost about five bucks at your local big box store. Use it to change that burnt out tail light bulb or tighten that loose light switch in the hall.4 Medium size adjustable wrench
You can use a good adjustable to do everything from tighten a loose bolt to open a can of beans. Figure on spending about 15 clams for a good one.5 Locking vice grips
Your bike tips over, and breaks a shift lever, how do you get home? Clamp the vice grip on the stub of the broken shifter. Oh yeah they work well as pliers to.6 Flashlight
Peer into dark spaces, signal on-coming traffic, find out what evil lurks in men's souls. Okay, the last is a stretch, but a good flashlight is worth its weight in just about anything, and should be carried by anyone that ventures out after dark or just wants to see where that drop of oil is coming from.7 Shock adjusting tool
Carrying a passenger or even yourself is a lot more fun when the shock preload is properly adjusted and its lot easier to do when you've got the proper spanner. If your bike didn't come with one, and most don't, order one from your favorite local shop.8 Battery Tender
If you don't ride your bike on at least a weekly basis, the battery should be kept up to snuff with a plug-in charger. I use one on my infrequently ridden dual sport bike and the battery has lasted nearly 6 years.9 A funnel
I have a real aversion to riding my bike when it's low on oil, and an even bigger one to spilling lubricant all over it. You should be checking, and if need be, topping up your oil on a regular basis. Having a funnel handy makes the job a whole lot easier.10 Cruz tools Econo-Kit
(or equivalent) Okay this last is something of a ringer. However, if you want to delete items two thru six buy one of the prepackaged tool kits that are on the market, and yeah, I unabashedly recommend one of Cruz-tools kits. They contain everything you need to perform minor (or not so minor repairs) and start at about 40 bucks.Keep it upright and ride it like you mean it!

Protecting Those Numb Fingers
- From: twest137
-
Description:
We have all ridden in cold weather and despite having heavy gloves, possibly including extra liners, those fingers get too cold and begin to numb.
(By the way, I have found that silk liners offer better cold weather protection than heavier cloth liners.)
So, what to do about it?
Here is a tip that my partner, Cash Anthony, came up with a couple of years ago when we were out on the last leg (612 miles) of a week on the road and it was so cold that our fingers began to get numb. We pulled to the side of the road, got off our bikes, and dug into our first-aid kits. We pulled out a set of latex gloves and put them on over the liners, then put our regular gloves on over the latex gloves. It's amazing how effective that simple idea turned out to be.
(You do carry latex gloves in your first-aid kit, right?)Courtesy of James R. Davis of Motorcycle Tips & Techniques
Keep it upright and ride it like you mean it!
