Houston Bike Night sans the Redhead

General Posts / By

One Year Anniversary and on the Run Again! So, I made my first Bike Night in 15 years? Yeah, I’ve covered some events since then, but the bike nights went by wayside, when I moved back to Houston to work at the St James. Figured it was okay to trade motorcycles for scantly glad ladies! The evening festivities were to celebrate the one-year gathering of the HTX Dyna Crews Bike Night beginnings. It is sponsored in part by Liberty Station Bar on Washington Avenue & Mancuso North/American Speed.

Pandemic Panhead Project, Part 2

General Posts / By

The tanks and fender are out to Deny 925, the master of patina paint, for a scallop classic paint job. In the meantime, I needed to install the Morris Mag, decide on a carb, install the front brake, finish a handful of welds, work with the guys at Bates on a clutch cable, make an old clutch lever work, hell, make the brake lever work and find a brake cable, take the springer apart and add Paughco inner springs, install the headlight and taillight, make a muffler bracket and mo’.

SportBike Chic Kevlar Jeans Review

General Posts / By

Made in the USA by a Woman Rider By Chris Gibbany with photos by her husband Although I have been riding motorcycles for years, it has only been in the last few years that I have really wanted a pair of Kevlar riding jeans. Two things have kept me from buying a pair; cost and sizing. Not having a brick and mortar store that allowed me to try on a pair, kept me from ordering a pair online not knowing if they would fit or not. Now, I can tell the world about an awesome pair of Kevlar jeans made by a woman rider to help other women riders be safe and look great while doing it, at a very reasonable price.

Memorial Day Bikernet Weekly News for May 21, 2020

General Posts / By

Say a Prayer for the Brothers and Sisters who Fought for Freedom Hey, This is one of those strange holidays. It’s at a time of the year when the party lamps are lite. On the other hand, it’s a time of thought and prayer for those who died in battle. We have a tremendous amount to celebrate this weekend with the country reopening, more businesses reopening and the celebration of life. But take some time out this weekend, to ponder those who have died in any combat including our own motorcycle freedom fighters. And think about life and our good fortunes to be living in the best of times of life on earth.

NAMZ Throttle by Wire Tech Tip

General Posts / By

Editor’s Note: Us old school guys need to know about this new shit. It’s not that new anymore, but what the hell, we need to know the does and don’ts and where we can find solutions. More and more I find myself helping guys with newer bikes, and I’m intrigued by the new M-8 configuration, since it slipped back in the direction of the EVO. Here’s a quote from a builder recently who said, “Evos were capable of any horsepower we could get from a Twin Cam, but the price of modifying Twin Cams is high. Now you can get double the power of an Evo with a 117-inch M-8 and the cost isn’t so high.” He recently built a 117 from a 107 and got 145 Horsepower and 133 pounds of torque. Incredible. We hope to bring you more M-8 performance techs in the near future. Thanks to the guys at NAMZ we can understand how the Throttle-by-Wire system works.–Bandit CLICK HERE TO READ THIS TECH ARTICLE ON BIKERNET Subscribe to the Cantina today – Join Now https://www.bikernet.com/pages/custom/subscription.aspx Shop for 5-Ball Racing Gear here – https://shop.bikernet.com/

The Mysterious Bikernet Weekly News for May 14, 2020

General Posts / By

Some ups and downs… I completely understand the need not to overwhelm our medical industry. And recently the Sturgis Rally discussion surfaced. One report worried that all the decision makers had solely financial cards in play and that the decision might be forced in one direction, to make money off the rally. I said the players run the gamut from Zero tolerance control freaks to freedom riders, party animals and the money makers. I hope they can find balance. But in the end motorcycling wins. As long as we are riding, we’re safe and free. Just ride through Sturgis and keep going. Ride into the hills of the Badlands. Ride through Yosemite and Zion. Ride through Flagstaff and Monument Valley. Just Ride! Think about it. Life can be fucked or fun, it’s up to each one of us. Find the path and follow it to Nirvana or another Redhead, both are heaven. And make sure you ride all the way… Freedom Forever, –Bandit CLICK HERE TO READ THE WEEKLY NEWS ON BIKERNET JOIN THE CANTINA – Subscribe Now https://www.bikernet.com/pages/custom/subscription.aspx

New Indian Cruz Tool Kit meets Bandit’s Dayroll

General Posts / By

Tools Are Always Terrific Gifts, Especially When They Work! Okay, as we all know tool kits are terrific presents for any biker. They are everywhere, in fact, the other day I was digging around and found a flashlight setting on a shelf. No big deal, right? This damn flashlight was six inches tall and the last two inches were devoted to tools like a massive Swiss Army knife with fold-out blades, screwdrivers, scissors, you name it. This is a 2.0 Cruz Tool Kit designed specifically for new Polaris built Indians, which are amazing bikes.
