The Dodge Charger book I have says that they eventually went to using AMCs as stunt cars and just shaking the camera a lot, because they were a lot cheaper and looked just enough like it for low deg + massive shaking. Also one of the guys, I think Luke, was banned from driving on set because he kept crashing the cars.…

1. Since you listed Faster, I’m going to assume you are behind the People’s Champion.

Am I the only one who actually likes the 2015? I plan to shave my wing, but I generally like the looks.

I don’t think they put a revised hub on my brother’s bike, is it a recall or just later years? He has about 10k miles on it. Our dealer is pretty awesome. His vertical cylinder started leaking coolant pretty bad after the warranty ran out, and they tried to repair it then completely rebuilt the top end all under good…

Well, I have a few more movies I need to watch. I meant II.

The article about it says it gets all the goodies as an option package, other than the exhaust, if I read it right.

My brother has the 1290 Super Duke, and the motor is amazing. When it is running. And the wheel isn’t falling off. KTM’s reliability seems to be a bit sketchy lately, especially with first year models. 350, 500, 690, the SD, and I’m sure I’m leaving some off that had major teething issues. For a long distance bike,…

This DVD, then tell them “it’s like this, but with cars.” Every time I watch the video, I end up buying another bike. I have to keep it at the bottom of my safe, to keep from going broke. (The sequel is terrible)

Kit should have an inline fues. You just hook it to the two poles, and then run the lead to where ever you want it. It only drains when something is plugged in, so just unplug when you turn off the bike. If you want switched power, then you need to figure it out

I like to kick it old school. I keep one of these on most of my bikes in case they won’t start. Have to use it a lot, unless I’m parked on a hill.

12v is pretty easy, unless your battery is really buried deep. Same as a tender pigtail, then fish the wire to where ever you want it. You don’t need to splice into the harness. That isn’t fun.

No, the tie downs are wrong. You should get these. The ratchet is so much better than the slip, especially if you are carrying a big bike or non-compressible load. Your tie down does have the other good features, the loop on the hook side so you don’t need a soft-tie and the hoop on the other end to clip in the…

“When any retailer ships something, it is their responsibility to ensure it arrives at the destination.”

Any of these. Because driving a Prius will make you appreciate your car. Even if your car is a bicycle.

It was pretty hairy when I tried it on a muddy mountain bike trail on the big GS, but especially since it only had about 50 miles on it at that point. Come play with me at the Rawhide school when I go, then you can write it up while recuperating. Jalopnik will cover the class since it will be for an article, right?…

I can’t disagree with her, fueling is a big part of why my Duc is going away. A true flawed beauty, I’d keep it just to look at if I weren’t already keeping it in my brother’s place because I’m out of garage space.

Why didn’t you tell me about this a week ago, damnit. I picked up my GS last Thursday. Though currently owning a ‘12 Duc and having ridden several other recent year models, even with the power boost on the Multi I’d probably go with the GS. The brakes are night and day better (every Duc I’ve ridden with ABS I’ve…

Been there, done that. Twice. One of which I was sober, and had to tow out a tow truck that had tried to get me out of the mud. Other time, I was with my roommate’s girlfriend and we didn’t want anyone to know, so we went and found a tractor to get us out of the river we’d ended up in while trying to find a secluded…

I too have suckled at the teat of the beater tree. “My” first street bike was a beater Virago that a friend abandoned in my yard in college. He was watching it for a friend who was doing a year abroad, and claimed that the owner never told him it burned oil. Engine seized a block down the road from my place, and he…

Can’t be worse than Bajaj Auto and the KTM 390
