Road racing instructor Keith Code says to turn in once, and turn in as quickly as possible (depending on the needs of the turn). But I wonder if staying on "the racing line" is more important to fast lap times. What do you think?

In my imagination, I see a spirit that loves to look at beautiful things. Is there a Hopi spirit known for loving beauty? Or a Hopi spirit that loves painting, the arts, children or adventure?

Personally, this thing looks like it should be called an ST700, but that would make too much sense. So, have you ridden one of these? Does it have enough power for two? How's the clutch and the storage space? My current bike is a Suzuki 650 Burgman with about 50 hp. Is the ST700/NT700V a step...

I was going to by an XB12X or Lightning Long. Now I just want a pleasant, comfortable bike with great handling and a good ride. Antilocks, and traction control might be nice, but I ride my motorcycle to work every day. I don't want a racer replica or anything that gives me shoulder cramps. What...

I'm using Apple's GarageBand on an iMac to make a demo of my Broadway style musical. I see how to drop a drum line into the mix and how to change the temp. What I haven't been able to figure out is how to add a beat with a weird time signature like 12/8 or how to insert one measure of 3/4 or...

I'm looking for a new, full sized touring bike for me and the misses and need help sorting out my options. BMW motorcycles makes three full size touring bikes: the R1200RT, the R1200LT and the K1300GT. Not having ridden any of them, I have no frame of reference to choose one over the other...

I'm not generally depressed, but today, before my head hurt and before I started seeing funny spots (but not before seeing some flashing lights), I just felt like jumping off a bridge. Other times before a nasty migraine, I'll feel like chewing off people's heads. The I-just-want-to-die feelings...

I have horrible mood swings as a prodromal warning sign before my migraines hit. These mood swings include suicidal impulses and irrational anger. The feelings are strong and frightening and are quickly followed by all those wonderful migraine bonus symptoms like phono-phobia, photo-phobia...

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...

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...

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...

...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...
