    Trying to pick my first Ducati?

    Hey, if you want a Ducati monster, don't care about the size and price is an issue--I suggest you call around to every Ducati dealership in your region and try to find a used 696. You'll probably be able to find a bike that's almost new, in excellent shape, well under $10,000.00 out the door...

    How can I make a Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (or other liter bike) more practical?

    I'd like to buy a big sport bike, but I commute on my motorcycle. I take weekend trips. I can't justify $10,000 on a track day toy. How can I make my liter bike into something I can ride comfortably for hours? Something that will hold not just a rain suite, but also my lunch and book to read on...

    What number should I program into my phone for emergencies?

    I'm not sure if 911 even works from a cell phone. Should I use it anyway? Program in the local police? State police? Some special mobile emergency number? What about when traveling out of state? Any suggestions. Smart Az comments are appreciated, but you get extra points if you are funny AND...

    Can I Raise the suspension on a Harley-Davidson touring bike?

    I know, I know ... most people want to lower their H-D, but I'd like to add more suspension travel so the bike handles bumps better, and to get those floorboards up off the pavement. I didn't see anything at the H-D website. Besides buying a Buell (probably the smart move), what can I do to jack...

    My Suzuki Burgman maxi-scooter has a 14" rear wheel. Where can I get a 15"...

    ...wheel and tire to fit? I want to try to set a landspeed record with my scooter (I know it's weird, but there it is). The rule books says I MUST have 15" wheels to race. Is there some way to replace the rear wheel and tire with something the same overall size, without breaking the bank? The...

    I'm planning to take my 650 maxi-scooter to the track and would like to fit a steering damper. ==> Who makes steering dampers? ==> Could I adapt one from a sport bike to fit my maxi-scooter (the scoot has a full fairing)? and ==> DANG, how can I get out of spending $500 bucks on the darned...

    How can I complain to Erik Buell about the crappy job Harley-Davidson...

    ...dealerships do with his bikes? I'd like to get his e-mail address, if you have it. They don't have an e-mail link at the Buell or H-D websites. I believe it is because they would get a trunk load of grief about how much H-D dealerships and sales people hate the Buell bikes. Hide 'em in the...
