(**85s sales conference music plays**) Welcome, readers, riders, and whatever you are in between. This is another article where I tell you stuff about I DON’T use on my bike, but you SHOULD. (My mind: Tell ‘em you use it. It will set more authority. Wink, Wink.) Why? You are a super-sport bike addict. Like…
Loud pipes save lives! Loud pipes save lives! Look, I get it. You don’t have to say it a third time. Loud pipes… Seriously? To be honest, I love sexy, loud motorcycle noises just as much as the next guy. But I also love not going deaf sooner than I have to. There is a point where…
