    Anti fog

    Absolutely Rain-x not to be used on plastics. This is due to the chemical used it hardens the plastic to cause a brittleness when exposed to UV light. Not something you what to be happening to your helmet. That said the guys I rode with in the UK had all the tricks but still used both rain-s...

    COLD RIDING! It's that time of year again...How do you stay warm?

    Oxford heated grips do the trick for hands in Oz - I know we are known for our sundrenched landscapes and the beach and the never ending summer. But the south does get cold and we do get the chilly Antarctic winds and snow. I have never had an issue with clothes I find when it really gets...

    HVMP bar ends (HEAVY!) review

    Got mine the day before my first really long ride on the Fz6 - My thoughts are this: nice to have the buzz above legal speeds but still not enough damping. After four 10 hour days right had totally stuffed. Loved the ride though and loved the country side. Victoria has some really nice roads...

    Anyone had this kind of experience?

    Only from a mates perspective - he was run up the back of by a guy who said he would pay but had no insurance. Then he was asked to use an unlicensed repairer and when he objected was told he was on his own. No police were involved. My opinion is call the police report the incident and let...
