I bought a pair of Shift Torque jeans and have been impressed. Really comfortable and has extra Kevlar reinforcement where needed. Runs for $100 at your local motorcycle stores. But you can buy them online for cheaper.

Brakes are definietly going to be one of the main components we don't want to overlook. Plus we are going to beef up the roll cage just in case we decide to push it to the limits. A real good 5 point harness and a good seat are a must as well.
Your right about being able to bring it to the track (won't be allowed). It will most likely be a small dune buggy/go kart. The main purpose of this project is to challenge myself and to learn more about a number of mechanical and technical aspects when it comes to motorcycle engines. The...
I do not care about the title on the bike. All I want is a working engine with all the parts that I can adapt with some modifications and use it on a go-kart. Why have a little 5-10 hp lawn mower engine when you can use a 80-100 hp engine from a bike and scare yourself when you take it for a ride.
I guess that would leave me with 2 options:
1) Anyone crash there bike recently and want to buy it back from the insurance company?
2) Anyone with a dealers license willing to go to a bike auction?
I don't want to spend to much on the engine, any 600cc engine would work just fine as long as it...
Anyone know of any motorcycle auctions where you can pick up bikes that have been written off by the insurance companies? I am looking to picking up an engine with the transmission that I can use in a go-kart.
Any websites that I can look up to see whats going up for sale on the auction block?
Selling a full day motorcycle Track day for June 16th, 2011 at Cayuga. Got injured this weekend and I can't make it out this week.
Anyone interested call Tony at 416-670-3416
Maybe next time Simoncelli tries a dangerous pass he can get arrested after the race....
Pedrosa was racing really good especially with his injury. Yamaha better get some new parts before one of the Honda riders takes the points lead and doesn't look back.
It sure is strange to see a...
Looks like Lorenzo is consistent as always. Pretty sure he will be fighting for first place this weekend. Pedrosa and Simoncelli are going to be good to watch up in the front group of guys if they can put in some consistent lap times. Rossi as always is going to make the guys work for the...
This season will be interesting to see how all the riders with new teams will perform. But 2012 will be even more interesting to see everyone start from scratch on a 1000cc bike. If BMW came into the game for 2012 that would be interesting to see how they would do and who would be riding for...
Such a rookie mistake I made. Sorry to ruin your ride. Everything is good, just really sore today. You guys should drop by the bubble tea shop tonight and tell me what everyone saw. Hit my head pretty hard so there are a number of things I don't recall. Message me later tonight if you guys...
