    AltRider Crash Bar Test

    I recently had what safety engineers refer to as an "event". My left side front came in contact with the right rear tail light of a car. Other than scratched and scuffed paint and a broken plastic Go-Pro mount I can find no damage the bike. I didn't even go down. I'm pretty happy with my...

    First Mudding of the S10

    I finally got an opportunity to take her off road. My brother and I spent the weekend running around the forest roads and well access roads of Allegheny National forest. I don't know where to start. She was just outstanding. We got into some places that at first looked kinda iffy, we splashed...

    Found One

    I've been on a quest to actually rub my butt on the seat of one of these. It's really tuff to even consider dropping this kind of cash on something practically sight unseen. Not that I don't trust you nice peoples personal opinions. I found one. I got to look at it, touch it, examine it. I...

    SW Pennsyvania

    My DL650 is at 58k miles and showing the abuse. So, the race is on. The T800 and the 800GS took the hole shot. The GS started falling back as the new T12 slowly worked it's way to the front running neck and neck with the T800. But wait, here comes the S10 blowing past the GS and taking the T800...
