    Might get back into an S10

    I sold my 2012 s10 for a 2014 vstrom and aside from a way better stock suspension, I don't like the vstrom too much, everything on that bike rattles or vibrates. Anything deals to be had out there on one of the newer s10? Any issues with the ES? Is it worth it?

    So glad I own the tenere.

    This has nothing to do with comfort, looks or handling. It's all about the soul of the bike. So I was at my local BMW dealer looking at the F800 / f650 and seeing about a trade on the tenere. They are the most smug, arrogant and condescending dealership I've ever been to. It's my first...

    Shoei Quest vs Arai RX q

    I'm looking into one of these helmets my current helmet is a shoei rf 800, the new rf 1100 didn't fit quite right. I don't like modular helmets and I'm looking for something cool, light and quiet. The ability to not fog up is also great. The rf 800 comes with a piece that prevents you...
