I got my m2 in 2012, never rode again til my first bike in 2017. Bought from a dealership, went behind the dealership for about 30mins getting use to it, then just rode home. I drive as well, so the whole watching for traffic etc isn't new. It's just the changing gears and getting used to...

I think I found my problem, which is my leathers a bit loose, so I went the cheap route first and got the Costco one. That was enough to fill the gap plus fleece lined for minimal warmth. Tested sat night and sun morning around the 5-8c mark. Worked well. Will see again once I ride in the -5c...

@Mad Mike you think polar fleece or the one I posted is better? Under a leather jacket. Men's Midway Jacket Primary_27795&utm_campaign=Viglink Primary&utm_content=27795&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=impact&utm_term=506982#230380%5Bcolor%5D=BLACK

@robertv19 I'm looking at this right now https://www.marks.com/en/helly-hansen-mens-midway-jacket-230380.html#230380%5Bcolor%5D=Black Not a bad price, but if I were to go cheaper, maybe one from Costco like this...

@Mad Mike does regular malls have these, like from eddie bauer, etc? Can't seem to find who uses that tech @regder oh I see, thanks! I'm an idiot when it comes to searching ?‍♂️

Would a simple heated vest be enough, my research shows that heated jackets only heat the front and back, not arms. Unless I'm missing something here lol

Thanks a bunch, I guess I will aim for wireless heated stuff first ? and does one prefer heated gloves or heated handlebars?

I'm tempted with the heated gears but it's just a short commute to work, approx 20mins, so I don't want to deal with charging it here and there. But I do ride during winter as long as it's above -10 before windchill. I survived with leather jacket and the 2 layers from an old Olympia 3in1. It's...

Hello, first off I'm sorry for posting here but it seems the apparel section doesn't get much attention.. I'm looking to get a mid layer jacket under my armored leather, for a bit more warmth during the night rides. I'm debating between a soft shell fleece lined, whether it be Columbia...

@JFD it clamps ok, just cause some minor scratching during installation. No vibration sounds. I'll leave it for now then, cheap exhaust anyways to toy with for now lol. Thanks all.

@Trials I'm not sure if it's for grip purposes or just there as protection tbh.. @Mad Mike ya just the inner black band is missing from the bracket. As mentioned above im not 100% sure if it's for gripping or just for protection.

Sorry for this dumb question.. But hope someone can help. Bought an exhaust that has a bracket to mount to passenger pegs. It doesn't have any rubber (silicone?) protecting the bracket from scratching the exhaust. What are some options? I searched Amazon and stuff and it's 2+ weeks til...

I started on a 300 and had a few close calls where I skidded and fish tailed but didn't rear end the car in front. I think if you ride smart you won't really need it, but definitely nice to have it for those close calls.

Yup.. After everyone's response I figured it's such a personal thing. I think I'll go with custom and get a better understanding. Half the price of name brands too, so it's worth the risk. Thanks all. ?

I've got a cb500x, tbh I'm doing fairly ok, it's the wife that needs seat upgrade.

Seems the custom makes most sense, would love another motorcyclist measuring my ***. Joking aside, definitely less headache with returns if any discomfort, shipping costs etc.. Thanks everyone!

With a big price tag, before I pull the trigger I would like to ask for feedback if you've tried multiple seats.. Corbin, saddlemen, Sargent..? Definitely going the foam route. Also found a nice guy that does custom using existing seat and adding wheelchair foam. Please and thank you!

@CriticalCore I also got a chance to hop on @MacDoc cb and then pulled the trigger on it. I don't look back at all on that decision. Cheaper insurance and fuel than the strom and versys, much lighter (the other two felt so top heavy for city commute), and honestly plenty of power to have fun...

I just went from a ninja 300 to a cb500x (I'm 200, 6'2). I'm under 30 and have only been insured for 2 years. Paying $100 a month atm. My understanding is after 3 years of coverage and 30 is when prices drop for bigger bikes (500+ cc). I think there's really only 2 options for minor off roading...

I'm just saying.. If there are riders that have loud pipes and do stupid stuff they'll just deal with the law. Anyone that has stock or non stupidly loud pipes shouldnt even be concerned. Sure, but what I mean in terms of fair game is.. Break the law and deal with the consequence if you get...
