Hey, this is something many of us, Sturgis Rally goes have been fantasizing about for years. This is history in the making, folks! We hear that Zandstra Construction has made a 1.5-mile first cut of the new road that connects the northern and southern dead ends of Fort Meade Way. Once completed the road will take riders and drivers from I-90 to the Buffalo Chip in 8 minutes. The freshly carved roadway has laid the foundation for a direct 5.6-mile shortcut from I-90 exit 37 to the front gate of the Buffalo Chip. Visitors should enjoy the fact they can hang a left out of the Buffalo Chip gates and be on I-90 in a matter of minutes. The project remains on schedule to be completed and ready for use by July 25, 2016. Get more information here.

Orange County Choppers’ home is coming up for auction. The 61,305 square feet building was ordered by OCC back in 2008 and cost $12 million. It was a time of plenty, at the height of the expensive chopper rage and when OCC’s reality television program was enjoying a great deal of interest. Time has passed since then, and OCC fell on hard times, as many hard-working people and companies in the U.S. and over the world have. OCC lost control of the property in 2011 after failing to pay the mortgage. They are now tenants and recently signed a 10-year lease renting out about 60 percent of the building. The property at 14 Crossroads Court in Newburgh, New York, is slated for auction on March 7 and bidding will starts at $900,000. More details on this auction can be found here.

What’s so good about three wheels? Stability, Security, Comfort. What’s bad in me? My logical left brain immediately goes fuzzy. That two wheel survival instinct gives way to this-is-fun right brain pleasure centers. Suddenly I’m thinking, hey, wonder if this baby can do burnouts and riding over sand, through streams and onto golf courses seem natural. My ATGATT philosophy flies right out the window. Since I’m just going down the street and never have to put my feet down, to hell with boots or gloves. Before you can say nudist camp I’m riding around wearing sandals, shorts and a T-shirt and girlfriend sure looks good in a bikini. This may not necessarily be bad, reckless perhaps, cavalier? Yes. – See more at: http://www.bikernettrikes.com/pages/2016_CanAm_Spyder_F3_Limited.aspx

If you’re looking to take the blacked-out look all the way, look no further that the new Gloss Black Screamin’ Eagle Heavy Breather Elite Performance Air Cleaner Kit (P/N 29400285, $399.95). This high-performance intake features a forward-facing filter element that will flow huge volumes of clean air, according to Harley-Davidson. The low-profile cast elbow and the oval cross-section element combine to hug the engine to provide increased leg room. The intake tube mounts to a custom back plate that features integral breathers and covers the throttle body and electronics for a finished look. The kit includes washable filter element, intake tube, custom back plate, water-repellent rain sock and all mounting hardware. Engine ECM recalibration (priced separately) is required for proper installation.

Hey, I’m more excited than I have been in awhile about a couple of things. Life is just so fuckin’ interesting. You can bang along, but if you keep your eyes and mind open, answers will come. I’ve been concerned about Bikernet’s growth for a couple of years. I’ve researched, drawn on the knowledge of consultants, and tried various programs. I’ve also worked closely with our Web master in Columbus, Ohio who disagreed with some of the suggestions I received. But according to Joe Word Press is now up to speed to handle Bikernet. We are headed for a redesign, without losing our style, but more of a infrastructure make-over. In the next two months we should be easier to navigate, to read, to find things and support our advertisers. I have one hard and fast content rule. We won’t run ads all over content, but we will make some ad spaces available at the bottom of content pages, which we have almost 20,000 pages available. We will add advertising to Department pages, so our customers will be on 200 pages in addition to the home page. But, I’m most excited about how the Bikernet, Bikernet Baggers, and Bikernet Trikes will function. Hang on. The other shift in thinking took place just the other day. I spoke to Ron Paugh about our streamlined trike effort and he discussed the interesting project with his manufacturing guy, Steve Massicote. They came back to me with a major, “Yes. We can handle it.” I’m headed to Houston to pick up the pieces and deliver them to Carson City, Nevada post haste. We’re finally making serious progress. Let’s hit the news. It’s full of surprises. The Bikernet Weekly News is sponsored in part by Cycle Source Magazine, Iron Trader, and ChopperTown. – Click here to
