Tech Talk: Jets Jets Jets!

In this month's tech talk, Carl dives into the fundamentals of carburetor jetting.

First, it's crucial to ensure that your motorcycle is fully warmed up before making any jetting adjustments. The richness of the air-fuel mixture changes with temperature, so you should only evaluate jetting when the bike is at operating temperature.

Tech Talk: Storage Wars

In this month's tech talk, Carl talks about various storage options available for your dual-sport motorcycle.

Tank bags can be attached to your bike right behind the tank and sit in front of your chest while you ride. Because space is limited, we recommend keeping your most important items in this area. They are also easily removable, so you can take your entire bag with you when you get to a rest stop. Phones, cameras, wallets, sunglasses, and house keys are good items to put into you tank bag. Many of our bags also allow you to keep a paper map on top for ease of access.

Tech Talk: How Exhausting!

The EPA and CARB continue to crack down on emissions tampering, and we are doing our part to comply with the letter and spirit of the laws governing motor vehicle emissions.

All the products that we sell that have potential emissions implications (carburetors, mufflers, jet kits, etc.) are labeled correspondingly on our website. Products that are labeled “race use only” can only be used in closed-course competition racing, and cannot be used on the street.
