After being almost stranded Clicky I decided I should have some sort of Road Side Assistance program. It's almost impossible to find and unbiased comparison -- so I figured I'd ask you nice people! What I think I know: AAA doesn't cover motorcycles unless you upgrade through AAA premium to...

I had a problem a while ago, but didn't show pics. so here they are. No matter what kind of on-the-road inflater you come up with (like: slime compressor, or C02 inflate (I like ultraflate), strings or mushroom plugs etc.) You can always get stranded. Look into a service (search, some...

I received my MojoLever from Mitch. Clicky Using a Harbor Freight tire changer setup, the MojoLever workes as advertised! Very easy. I've only changed a few tires with the mojolever -- but beats the crap out of everything else I've ever used to include the HF lever, rim protectors, the...
