Dunlop refers to their new Mutant tire as a crossover tire. The idea behind that is that it blends the best parts of the DNA from sport, touring, off-road/trail, and wet race tires into a single magic do-it-all tire. Unfortunately, the problem with trying to be good at everything, is that you often end up…

2019 Kawasaki Z400 Review
I won’t get into the details of how my husband helped me decide on the Z400 for my first bike, but I wasn’t appalled by the looks, I trust his judgment (obviously, he married me), and I could sit on the bike with my feet touching the ground. Sold. Okay, bright green isn’t my jam,…
Street & Steel Moto Leggings Review
The Street & Steel Moto Leggings are very similar to both the Alpinestars Banshee and Iria leggings. At first glance, you likely wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the two. Honestly, the rise is the only noticeable one. While I had at first thought I loved both the Alpinestars Bansee and Iria leggings,…
Roland Sands Design Jagger (Gunmetal) Jacket Review
What qualities make for a good motorcycle jacket? Is it the abrasion resistance? Protective armor? Waterproofness? Cooling ventilation? Durable long-lasting build quality? Premium styling? What if I told you that there’s a single jacket that offers it all? Would you believe it? Well, the RSD Jagger is that jacket, and handily delivers on all those…
Loop Earplugs Review
When it came to hearing protection, my attitude used to be a resounding “meh, whatever.” It’s not that I wasn’t concerned about hearing loss (although it’s likely that attending dozens of heavy metal concerts over the last 20+ years has probably left me totally screwed in that regard anyway), but that I couldn’t wrap my…
10 Motorcycle Accessories I Can’t Live Without
Can’t live without? That seems a bit over-the-top, but “would rather have than not have” just doesn’t have that sort of ring to it. Idiomatic trivialities aside, these are things that I find absolutely indispensable, and certainly wouldn’t give up without a fight. So here we are, the ten motorcycle accessories I can’t live without….
2018 Indian Scout Bobber Review
Before I ever put the 2018 Scout through its paces I was able to give its stripped-down cousin, the Bobber, what-for. The two motorcycles are incredibly similar, so rather than totally rehash the whole thing, I’m going to focus solely on what’s different about the Bobber compared to its Scout base model. Hop over and…

We break down our favorite go-to all-rounder helmet, the Scorpion EXO-ST1400 Carbon, in this review.
Harley-Davidson Iron 883 Review
My love for the raw attitude of older Sportsters is no secret, but the current iteration of the base model leaves a different taste in my mouth. Find out why in my Harley-Davidson Iron 883 review.
Lextek AC1 Classic Exhaust Review
I’ve been rocking Lextek pipes on my 2018 Kawasaki Z900RS for quite awhile now. When I was with J&P Cycles, I was afforded the opportunity to take a full system; headers with an OP15 muffler, for a spin to review. You can read that review here for my initial thoughts a couple years ago, and…
