Obama’s Financial Overhaul may affect your next motorcycle purchase

by : Kempol Modification

President Obama’s financial overhaul may have an effect on the financial institutions of manufacturers like BMW and Harley-Davidson, manufacturers that provide buyers with loans directly from their institutions.

These companies own state-chartered industrial loan companies that benefit from federally insured deposits and lend money, but are not regulated as heavily as normal banks. The Obama administration’s plan would force companies with ILC charters to register as bank-holding companies with the Federal Reserve.

Does this mean you won’t be able to get that loan for the tire burning, corner cutting sport-bike you’ve been eyeing up? No, it may be more difficult for first time buyers to obtain a loan though. It does mean that you might have to go to a real bank to get your loan. The good part is you may not get charged the 20-something percentage rate that comes along with borrowing from some of these institutions.

And don’t think these companies will back down without a fight. Even if regulation makes it more expensive, those firms that depend on providing such loans will presumably accept the stricter oversight that comes with owning a bank.

So, if you’re under the age of 20 years old, you might not be able to go out and buy a brand new R1 or a BMW K1300S, but I’m sure there are tons of bikes that you can afford without signing your life away at the dealership for 25 percent interest.

Types Of Motorcycle Fairings Prevalent Today

by : Kempol Modification

Motorcycle fairing is the shell positioned over the frame of sports bikes and racing motorcycles mainly to reduce the air drag. It also protects the driver from wind, weather and debris and cushions the vehicle in case of a crash. As speed of the motorcycle increases, body of a motorcyclist experiences increasing wind resistance that slows down the bike. With fairings, a biker can duck low and nullify almost all air resistance.

Types of Fairings Depending on Coverage Area

Depending on area of coverage fairings may be full, half or quarter.

• Full fairing – They cover both lower and upper portions of the motorcycle, minimizing air drag and providing protection to the engine, gearbox and chassis.

• Half fairings – They feature a windscreen, extending below the handlebars. Many half-faired models have kits by original manufacturers to convert them to full fairings.

• Quarter fairing – This generally comprises a windscreen and minimum fairing around the headlight.

• Belly Pan Fairings – These are used in combination with quarter or half fairings below the engine to minimize the aerodynamic lift and to increase the appeal of the bike.

Types of Fairings Depending on Their Placement

• Depending on their position you can have
• front fairing
• rear fairing
• left body fairing
• right body fairing, and
• tail fairing.

There are some specialized fairings manufacturers that have come up with innovative and attractive fairings, adding a new dimension to the biking experience.

Some popular motorcycle fairings brands:

• Batwing fairing: Clean aerodynamic shape, easily detachable, 36 inch wide and 17 inch tall, without windshields from Memphis. Windshields are available in three heights and seven colors. The inner wall is black textured, ABS outer shell is black and paint ready. However, it is not compatible with any other windshield other than Batwing.

• AirMaster Universal Deluxe Fairing: Way ahead of time, this subtle and classy styling of Kuryakyn fairings will set a different look for your bike. The attractive standard features and tempting list of optional accessories make it one of the finest fairings in the market, especially, for music buffs. Stereo, CD, AM & FM, specially designed and fitted speakers, direct ipod control, and glove compartment are some of its distinct features. It can be fitted to all types of bike.

• Arlen Ness Fairing: Designed to be used on all front ends, its body is constructed by heavy ABS plastic and the windshield is made of smoked plexiglass. It is smart, good looking and inexpensive.

• Premeux Classic Fairing: These fairings give excellent protection from wind and rain. Made of composite fiberglass, chromed brackets, and black gel coat surface, these are available ready to be painted to match the colors of the motorcycle. Inside the inner fairings enough place for speaker mounts, antenna and glove box are kept.

Gone are the days of Dustbin fairings and Dolphin fairings. Today, fairings have become an integral part of design and style statement of a sports or racing motorcycle. The increasing craze for stylish fairings has encouraged the leading manufactures to come with aftermarket fairing kits to be fitted to their respective models. They are now offering a whole new updated range of fairings that may be full or half, depending upon the choice. It is time to gear up for a whole new biking experience!

Packing for A Motorcycle Tour – Top Ten Tips

by: Kempol Modification

It’s always a problem knowing what to pack for a motorcycle tour. Fortunately, that feeling of utter freedom we get when we are riding our bikes far outweighs the problem of limited luggage space. Having said that, the problem doesn’t go away, but by applying a little thought, it can be overcome. Here are some tips to make life easier on the road.

TRAVEL LIGHLTY

It’s tempting to throw as much as possible into your panniers, but remember, every ounce you pack onto your bike reduces handling qualities. Add to this a pillion and the needle on the pleasure-ometer begins to swing to the low side. Of course, there are some things that you can’t do without, but the keyword here is need. Take what you need and nothing more. If you are going on an organised guided tour, the company should (if it’s worth its salt) have a back-up vehicle that will carry your luggage.

PACK SENSIBLY

To optimise the handling of your bike, place heavy items at the bottom of your panniers.

BEFORE YOU GO

In the weeks leading up to your planned tour, begin making a list of what you might need to take with you. At this stage, it doesn’t matter if the list is too long; you can always cross things off as the time draws nearer. By using this method, you will ensure that the things you take with you are what you really need. You will also reduce the risk of leaving behind an essential item.

MOTORCYCLE LUGGAGE

Unless you like riding for hours with a rucksack strapped to your back, it’s invariably better to have panniers and back box. Detachable panniers are great; they can be unhooked as carried like a suitcase. Belt bags are also popular for carrying things like money, credit cards and mobile phone.

TO ROLL OR NOT TO ROLL

You’ll have to decide this for yourselves, but personally speaking I prefer to roll my clothes before placing them in a bag inside the panniers. Other riders like to lay things flat, but it doesn’t work for me. Some bikers like to use zippable plastic bags that are sat upon to squeeze out the air before they are sealed. They claim that the vacuum keeps their clothes crease-free, but of course, I’m just not heavy enough (hee-hee).

TANK BAGS

Tank bags are fine and some of expandable ones can hold quite a lot of luggage, but it does take the fun out of it a little bit for me. If you’re going on a tour with a back-up vehicle, you only have to put up with the tank bag until you reach your starting point, then someone else carries it for you; great.

PLASTIC SEALABLE BAG

It’s always good to keep your smelly socks away from your good clothes. How many times have you gone into your luggage and found that you can’t decide whether you’ve worn those socks once before or not?

SMALL ITEMS

Very often small items are forgotten, such as; mobile phone charger, camera, camera batteries, first-aid kit, toiletries etc. This is when list-making comes into its own. If you’re going to a hot country, don’t forget your insect bite/sting cream. Something I always carry is a pack of tissues; I know it’s just a small item, but it comes under ‘Essentials’ for me.

REALLY ESSENTIAL

If you get as excited as I do prior to a motorcycle tour, please pay extra attention to making sure that you are carrying your bike documents and driving licence. If you are going overseas, don’t forget your passport, or you’ll be turning around and going home. .

DON’T FORGET

Unless you are heading for some remote region, there will always be a chance to buy things that you forget, but you aren’t really going on a shopping trip so try to remember as much as you can. No doubt, there will be something you need, and it can be fun finding these things in a foreign town, but if the list is long, it can become tiresome.

Well, you’ve packed and you’re on your way. Have a great time and ride safely. May the roads be long and winding, and the sky blue.

History of Woman and Motorcycle

by : Kempol Modification


The motorcycle didn't spring full-blown into this world. Rather, it evolved from the earlier bicycle. Women loved bicycles for the mobility and freedom they allowed. In fact, Susan B. Anthony said, "The bicycle has done more for the emancipation of women than anything else in the world."
In the 1880s, bicycles were a huge fad. Then, in 1885, Gottlieb Daimler made one that had an engine. Strictly speaking, it wasn't a bicycle, because it had four wheels instead of two. Two were safety wheels. This bike went a magnificent and stately 12 miles per hour.
An idea was born, and soon other motorized bicycles were invented. Perhaps the first true motorcycle was a charcoal fired two -wheeler made in 1869 by Sylvester Roper of Massachusetts.

Within two decades, motorcycles were being mass-produced. The first such bike was the Orient-Aster, which was made by the Metz Company of Waltham, Massachusetts. This state clearly loved its bikes. Another early cycle was the beloved Indian, made by the Hendee Manufacturing Company in Springfield, Massachusetts. (Later, the company changed its name to Indian Motorcycles.)

In 1902, Harley Davidson sold its first three motorcycles, and soon there were dozens of manufacturers. They had names like Marvel, Exelsior, and Henderson. The Depression killed off all but Indian and Harley, and soon only Harley remained.

Women enjoyed the motorcycles as much as they had enjoyed bikes. After all, they were economical and fun. They also didn't have the stigma that they acquired later. Early riders were seen as adventuresome, not as outlaws.

In 1915, Indian motorcycles offered front and rear shocks. Since these cushioned the ride, people began to consider long-distance travel as a real option. That year, a mother-daughter team, Avis and Effie Hotchkiss, rode from New York to San Franciso. They didn't take the direct route. Instead, they meandered about, covering 5,000 miles.

The next year, two society women in their 20s, sisters Adeline and Augusta Van Buren bought a pair of Indian Powerplus Bikes. They were the first people ever to climb up and down Pike's Peak. They, too, completed a transcontinental ride. Their 3,300-mile trip took almost two months, and they had to contend not only with many unpaved roads, but also with social mores. Once they were arrested for publicly wearing trousers.

In the 1920s, Harley published a magazine called The Enthusiast. It sponsored Vivian Wales on a 5000 mile trip to a Harley factory. Another early motorcycle heroine was Bessie Stringfield, a.k.a. the Motorcycle Queen of Miami . She made 8 solo-cross country trips and was a motorcycle dispatch rider.

Bessie had started out with two strikes against her: she was a woman and she was African-American. At first, she couldn't even get a motorcycle license in Miami, Florida. However, a police officer interceded in her behalf.

Motorcycles were also used in wartime, which gave them a lot of public exposure. About 20,000 Harleys were used during the WWI. They were ridden by couriers, soldiers, and others.

As motorcycle popularity grew, it was only natural that some people became highly skilled in its use. They showed off these skills in motordromes, which had been around since the turn of the century but grew in popularity during the 1930s. A motordrome often advertised itself as "A Wall of Death."

Essentially, it was a giant barrel with a platform on top for viewers. They could look down on motorcyclists, who sped around the inside of the walls, held in place by centrifugal force. One of these early daredevils was Margaret Gast, who billed herself as "The Mile a Minute Gal." She was not the only woman daredevil. May Williams and Jean Perry also performed on the walls.

By 1940, the United States had its first women's motorcyle club, The Motormaids. Today, there are scores of such clubs. Anyone who wants more information about the history of women and motorcycles may want to check out the book Hear Me Roar: Women, Motorcycles, and the Rapture of the Road

10 Best All Around Motorcycle

By : Jessica mousseau

Here is a list of the 10 best all around motorcycles. While, there are always going to be those who disagree, this list of the ten best all around motorcycles dares to join the group.

1. Kawasaki KLR650: More features, such as “push-to-cancel” turn signals, modifications to the faring, and improved stability are just a few reasons why this is considered one of the best all around motorcycles. Even though it is a small motorcycle by some standards, it still gives a lot of riding enjoyment.
2. Honda CBR1000RR: This model underwent some changes and improvements for 2010, which earns it a spot in the ten best all around motorcycles list. This included engine changes for more efficient and smoother delivery of power.
3. Yamaha YZF-R1: Likewise, Yamaha has improved its 2010 models, such as the R1, in several areas, including appearance, design, and performance. In particular, the R1 has a crossplane crankshaft, and is the first production motorcycle in the world to do so.  
4. BMW GS: If you are thinking that these motorcycles are considered only for luxury riding, like the cars, then think again. A group of BMW motorcycle riders just finished riding 13,000 miles, from London to Beijing on BMW GS motorcycles. This is testament to the durability of these motorcycles as well as the ones riding them.
5. Harley-Davidson Touring Electra-Glide : Although the company and its products are built in and perhaps better known in America (where it has a long and interesting history) the company is beginning to see demand for its products such as the 2010 Touring Electra-Glide in foreign countries, including Japan, which is known for its own motorcycles.
6. Triumph Bonneville: This is a well-known European motorcycle, but it is also manufactured in America. The company is best known for the Triumph Bonneville motorcycle that was extremely popular in the ‘60s. You will be pleased to know that you can purchase a 2010 Bonneville with all the latest accessories and improvements, but with the same look that it had in the ‘60s.
7. Suzuki DR-Z70: The recognizable name is almost enough to automatically earn it a spot in the ten best all around motorcycles category. The fact that it offers ten different styles to choose from, including those made expressly for children confirms it.
8. Aprilla RSV4: This brand of motorcycle is very popular in UK, although it is available in the US. The different available models of this brand such as the RSV4 are mainly used for racing, although they can be also ridden on the street. If you choose to purchase a 2010 Aprilla RSV4 for street use, you will enjoy its clean lines and aerodynamic body style.
9. Victory Cross Country: Victory Motorcycle company, which is a division of Polaris Industries, was formed in 1991 to give motorcycle riders another choice of American-made motorcycles. Victory motorcycles have continued to gain popularity since the division’s inception. There is even a dedicated Victory Motorcycle webpage, which features information on one of the newest 2010 cruising model, the Cross Country.
10. Husqvarna TE 630: Did you even known that Husqvarna made motorcycles? The majority of their models are intended for racing, however, 2010 has seen the introduction of the TE 630, which is a racing bike that has been modified so that it meets legal specifications for street use.
