    Sidi Champion Air Boots

    I have two pair and I like them very much...cant remember the model names but one pair has a zipper and "vents" for hot weather riding and the other has three cinch straps. First time I ordered I had problems getting right size but I will definitely buy these again. Ron

    Suspension Tuning

    Lee Spittler at Traxxion Dynamics replaced my 06 suspension with his cartridges and an Ohlins shock.....its a different bike. IMO it all depends on the roads you ride on....if you frequent any "unsmooth" roads the new suspension will be noticeably superior. Ride Safe, Ron

    Traxxion Dynamics Fork Cartridge for 06 FJR

    Tom, I just brought it home. I was only able to put about twenty miles on it before I left Georgia but it was a major improvement.
