A guide to bluetooth helmets
Mixing leading edge technology with motorcycle owners may not seem like an obvious combination. After all, what could Harley Davidson enthusiasts want with new gadgets? The answer lies in the way in which new technologies are helping bike riders to communicate. The difficulties involved in communicating from the back of a motorbike will be clear to anyone who has had the experience. Unlike in a car, motorcycle riders find themselves positioned very close to the exposed engines. Those engines generate a large amount of noise, particularly in the case of high specification bikes. Once you factor in the additional noise provided by driving at some speed along the open road, not to mention the weather...
Car Keys Locked Inside
While backing out of your garage or even just your driveway this morning, you surely managed to leave some scratches on your car. Not only that but after a couple of miles, you seemed to have ran out of gas. Luckily, you were near a gasoline station and were able to fill up your fuel tank. However, it seems luck has fled from your side for the day. After filling up, you were able to drive for some distance when a tire of your car went flat. Of course, you had to change the tire yourself. And while you were at it, you noticed that the hubcap you purchased along with some Pontiac auto parts seemed to have fallen somewhere between your current location and your garage. Because you were already late for...

How to do general maintenance on your motorcycle
Nothing could ruin your day more when you're driving in the countryside and then in the middle of nowhere, your Honda CBR motorcycle breaks down.

What also caught people's attention in the blockbuster film that year were the rugged, yet stylish clothes that Mick was wearing. With his black leather hat adorned with crocodile teeth, sturdy walkabout pants, and alligator vest displaying his manly chest, Dundee portrayed the quintessential Australian outback...

Flashes of Motorcycle's Beginning
The motorcycle we are enjoying now has simple beginning. It has only developed into a powerful machine in time. Most of the riders are not even aware of its past so let us bring back the time and have a quick sojourn to rekindle motorcycle parts and motorcycle per se history. In 1867, Sylvester Howard Roper invented a two-cylinder, steam-engine motorcycle that is powered by coal whose connecting rods directly drive a crank on the rear wheel. Roper was also the one who invented the steam engine car. If steam engine would suffice the standard for a motorcycle then this can be treated as the very first motorcycle. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler invented the very first gas-engined motorcycle. It was an...
Where Have All the Sidecars Gone?
According to the Oxford Compact Dictionary, the definition of a sidecar is:sidecar. noun, a small, low vehicle attached to the side of a motorcycle for carrying passengers. Well, I guess that's not a bad definition, although I have seen some sidecars that definitely could not be described as "low" in any sense of the word. Nor are all sidecars particularly small. In fact, when you boil it right down, the Oxford Dictionary's definition of a sidecar sucks! Maybe I should write and let them know. Anyway, this article isn't about the Oxford dictionary's accuracy or lack of it, but about sidecars. Where did they all go? You hardly ever see a sidecar nowadays, unless you are an afficionado, of course...

Though many people are attracted to the idea of buying Used Motorcycle Frames so they can save quite a bit of money, you should always remember that Used Motorcycle Frames basically already have some wear and tear on them (which means quality goes down already somewhat.) This indicates that a buyer of Used Motorcycle Frames should never expect to get the same level of quality that new motorcycle frames could provide - it just doesn't happen that way (unless the Used Motorcycle Frames are sourced from relatively unused motorcycles which would mean the frames are practically brand new then. But don't hold your breath that that will turn your way.) Why is the quality of Used Motorcycle Frames a basic...

Oil and the Motorcycle Engine
A motorcycle engine is more compact and higher revving (higher revolutions per minute) than an automobile engine allowing for faster acceleration, better responsiveness, and more efficient fuel economy. With so many parts moving rapidly in the tight confines of a motorcycle engine casing, lubrication is of utmost importance. The primary function of oil in a motorcycle engine is as a lubricator. It provides the fluidity within which all the various metal parts can perform their individual functions in close proximity. If oil were not present, metal on metal grinding would be inevitable, resulting in irreversible damage to a motorcycle engine. Oil allows the motorcycle engine to shift smoothly...

In addition they also produced the K, G, and F series shortly after that. One unique feature was the addition of the lockable differential technology, which gave the motorcycles...

There is no bike on the road that looks like a Harley-Davidson. Over the manufacturer's century-long history, the look of the Harley has changed and the true enthusiast can tell the year of a bike at a glance. One of the most obvious clues is the distinctive Harley engine. For twenty years, Harleys got their look from the Shovelhead engine, the engine that many people even today automatically associate with the bike. The End of the Panhead In the mid 1960s, Harley Davidson motorcycles used the Panhead engine, so called because of the shape of the rocker covers. As the bikes got heavier they required engines with more power than the Panhead could deliver. In 1966, Harley introduced the next...

Motorbikes - Take Cover
As summer draws to a close, around 10,000 UK bikers start to think about laying up their motor bikes for the winter months. From the end of October through until Easter, the thought of motor biking is not so appealing and there is little point in taxing and insuring the bike. Bikes are winterised and stored away at the back of the garage awaiting the better weather. Sadly, thieves are aware of this and so some 600 bikes are stolen every month. Obviously if you have totally cancelled your policy you will be unable to claim for this theft. You can, however, reduce the cover to a minimum for fire and theft and this is worth considering. If you're more used to insuring cars than motor bikes, you'll find...

Frederick Richard Simms and Charles Harrington Moore formed the RAC back in 1897, although at that point it was called the Automobile Club Of Great Briton. It was loosely based on the French version the Automobile Club de France, by copying their constitution. In those days, I would imaging even the most optimistic motorist could not image how the motorcar would change everyone's lives. By 1901 it had already started to employ the first uniformed patrolmen in Great Briton. In 1907 the Automobile Club of Great Briton got Royal approval and then became the Royal Automobile Club or the RAC as it became popularly known as. For many generations the RAC has been at the forefront of motoring, initially as...

How to Set Up and Run Motorcycle Salvage Yards
For some people, fun is literally running Motorcycle Salvage Yards. This is because running Motorcycle Salvage Yards allows them to stay in constant touch with their motorcycle-mechanic side. Motorcycles, to such people, are like a disease to a doctor - there is always that intellectual curiosity about why this part works this way and how the teeny-tiny parts work in conjunction with one another to make a fast, sleek machine that can go from zero to 100 kph in 10 seconds (without you crashing it into a tree, that is.)

It's basically designed to protect the other guy and his bike - not you or yours. Collision: Collision insurance, on the other hand, will help pay for your bike's repairs in the event of an accident. Comprehensive: Comprehensive is well, shall we say, the most comprehensive policy you can buy covering everything from, fire, theft and vandalism, as well as accidents. When shopping around for motorcycle...
Is Death Lurking on our Roads?
Everyone knows that riding motorcycles is not only a means of transportation but also a passion for many.

It does not have to be this way-there are ways to avoid a tragic outcome! The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has published several reports to shed light on the causes and trends in motorcycle fatalities occurring in the U.S. Even though numbers do not lie, they can...
Tyre Disposal and Recycling
It is now standard practice for tyre retailers to impose a tyre disposal charge when you change your tyres, which tends typically to be about £1.00 a tyre. You may wonder why you have to pay this charge - after all tyre disposal charges have not always been the norm. The real answer to this question is that it is a simple case of economics - a case of supply and demand. Going back twenty years the scrap disposal scenario was totally different to the way it is today. It used to be the case that car tyre retreading companies would collect the majority of used tyres as the raw material for their production. They used to pick up the used tyres free of charge (or even pay for the privilege). However...

Not Just Another Sheet of Metal
Metal dominates a car's composition. Solid sheets of metal are being cut, contoured and put together to build the car's main body. The goal of the carmaker is to seamlessly incorporate these sheets with all the other car parts. Like the grille, the front and rear bumper, the doors, along with the others. The integration of all these parts must considered when completing a car's design. But, there is one vital car part that is more than just another sheet of metal. The fender of a car, for one, is often overlooked as merely another sheet of metal by a considerable number of people. This is mostly because fenders are usually installed into the sides of the car quite seamlessly. There's rarely any fuss...
