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.

2025 Calendar Photo Contest

First Place: Taylor Barnette

Taylor took this picture of his Yamaha XT250 in Southeastern Arizona. He was training for a rim-to-rim hike of the Grand Canyon and decided to explore the backcountry for a bit after his training hike. The rough dirt roads were no problem for the XT, and as the sun was setting, the entire landscape lit up a fiery orange! Taylor’s dual-sport took him to places that would be otherwise inaccessible.

Featured Rider: Daniel Byers

This month, we’re riding along with Daniel Byers from Ohio who owns a heavily-modified 2011 Suzuki DR650 with a striking yellow and white color scheme that he has named “Thousand Sunny” or just “Sunny” for short.

Daniel has replaced “everything imaginable, except the motor, carb, and airbox” with the “entire ProCycle catalog!” Some of the more notable bits include a Yenkro Rally fairing, a translucent Safari tank, a wheel set from Woody’s Wheel Works, and Acerbis frame guards.

Featured Rider: Han Kim

This month, we’re excited to feature ProCycle customer Han Kim from Utah who rides a 2007 Suzuki DR650 and a 2023 Ducati Monster.

Han has meticulously re-engineered his DR from the ground up. Starting from the powertrain, he has upgraded his motorcycle with a Mikuni TM40 carburetor, ProCycle SS Pro-Flow headpipe, DG RST muffler, and a high-output stator. He added suspension upgrades front and rear from Cogent, a Warp 9 fork brace, and a GPR V5 steering stabilizer.

Featured Rider: Raynor Vandeven

This month, we’d like to share something a little different. ProCycle customer Raynor Vandeven from Arizona owns a 1996 Suzuki DR650… with a custom-built sidecar!

While Raynor loves riding his DR650, he loves his dog, Nancy, even more. His motivation for building the sidecar was to be able bring Nancy along on his local adventures. Since she already loved hanging out the car window and the back of Raynor’s truck, getting her on the DR seemed like a no-brainer!

Featured Rider: Jeff Elliott

This month, we’re featuring Jeff Elliott from Texas who rides a 2020 Suzuki DR650 which he affectionately calls his “Desert Donkey.”

Jeff has been a long-time ProCycle customer and has made extensive modifications to his DR. When we asked what modifications he’s made, his response was “all of them.”
