Learning to Survive
When most of us hear the words Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF), we think of a local school or training site where new riders learn how to ride for their license endorsement. Some of us may even think about the Experienced Rider Course (ERC, now named BRC2) that we have taken or have heard a fellow rider talk about.

Motorcycling Issues: Pull Over or Else
Imagine this: It’s a beautiful day to ride. The air is cool, the sun is bright, and the road is wide and dry. It’s just you, some good friends, and your bike. Pure bliss! Now imagine that somewhere along your ride you’re confronted with a mandatory roadside checkpoint. This is like the ones used to catch drunk drivers, but this isn’t for them or even cars.

The $100 Life Saver
No matter how new your bikes is, when road debris gets in your way or slow speed parking lot accidents happen.

The Harley Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy 2012

Take A Deep Breath
Looking at a stock Harley-Davidson’s air-filter setup, it’s a wonder the bike runs at all. Talk about restricted! The small size and the density of that OE filter element is bad enough, but couple that with the tiny openings in the housings to let air in and it’s a surprise the engine can breathe deep enough to get the bike much past a walking speed.
