Let me tell you a story of how I started riding motorcycles.
The very first time was at my best friend’s house up in Humbolt, California where he had a dirt-bike. Well, to cap the story short, I didn’t know how to ride, didn’t have a helmet on, ultimately did a superman and sorta chipped a part of my leg bones after flipping over about 3 times on the ground.
As ugly as that experience sounds, I got the courage to actually BUY a motorcycle couple years later in South Korea, where I was staying. The traffic was so bad, the only way to get around the city fa
When I used to go to middle school about 20 years ago, I used to have a rack for my alto saxophone I’d carry to school. It was very heavy and the ropes made my bike look like a bike SUV. (if there’s such a thing)
Anyways, here’s a cool bicycle DIY on how to make a cargo trailer for your bike, sorta like motorcycles.
The front half is an old 26er mtb frame that I had been using as an errand/beater bike. The back half is a 29er mtb frame that I had purchased online a couple years ago… it showed up with a bad head tube/dow

I’ve seen camera mounts for motorcycles on the front by the steering but here’s a really radical DIY that shows you how to make a “rear” camera mount for a motorcycle that will fit on your rear peg, where normally a passenger would put his/her foot down.
This mount should support most digital cameras and small camcorders. You have the flexibility to position the camera either front or rear-wards. (or even install two at once!)
Be sure to put a small piece of tape over
I am sure most of you are familiar with automated car wash in your local city/town but here’s a new innovative automated Motorcycle wash for your bikers. I wish they had one in San Francisco so I can take my bike for a wash.
With revolutionary techniques specifically designed to accommodate the growing numbers of motorcycles on the road today, the Moto Express Wash has transformed the 2 hour hand cleaning we have all accepted as normal: into a 5 minute automated process.

I am usually in the business of riding real scooters (that people call motorcycles), but here’s a Super Scooter that comes with GPS, display, and enough power to keep all your gadgets/devices charged.
We needed to use what space we had as carefully as possible while maximizing our airflow. The logical solution was a vertically mounted system of mounting plates with all the major components stripped o
Well, I’ve never expected this to come along, a 10/30W engine oil for cars that actually produces no smoke when burned. The label says 2-cycle so I guess it’s mostly for motorcycles at this point.
Green Earth Technologies, creator of organic engine products, has released their new automotive lubricant to its G-Oil line, a 10W-30 that has set a new biodegradability standard. The oil biodegraded over 90% in a speedy 9 days, blowing the 28-day rate of decomposition required by the American Society of Testing Materials out of the water. P
Here’s a humorous pose of the Chinese SWAT team practicing on segways. (Or maybe it was a scene in the movie shooting…)
I really think this is a really good idea as parts of busy Chinese metropolitan streets will let the segway travel much faster than anything other than motorcycles and bikes.
As for shooting shot guns from a segway, I’d have to say you need more training though.

Here’s a very innovative bike turn signal jacket. This could be really good for motorcycles. When do these go in production?
