Customizing your bike!
Whether you just put on a sticker or a do complete custom paint job, any customizing of your bike is fun. I just did some work to my Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro. I had the sub frame, foot pegs, side stand and controls that were originally silver powder coated black. To me, it makes my bike look much better and customized. It doesn’t matter what bike you ride or how old it is, when you do some work to it, it becomes a brand new bike.
Stare time is almost as important as riding. It gives you special feelings every time you look at your pride and joy. My definition of stare time is when you go out to your garage or wherever you keep your motorcycle, turn on some music, grab a drink and either clean it or just tinker with it. We own these bikes because of the way they make us feel and doing something to them is another way of feeling good about them.
It’s hard to stop once you get started!
Ducati DesertX Off-Road Review
Does Ducati’s midsize ADV live up to its Dakar dreams?
Even without knowing a single specification—and most turned out to be impressive—the shape and stance of the DesertX tells the tale of a new presumptive heir to the dirtworthy adventure-bike throne. All of the ingredients are there: longish-travel suspension, a 21-inch front wheel, a tall handlebar placed behind a rally-style windscreen and dash. Then there’s the promise of dirt flung far and wide thanks to a 937cc Testastretta 11° V-twin. Ducati claims off-road excellence, but marketing can often overpromise, especially when it comes to multi cylinder adventure bikes. A litmus test was necessary to see if the engineers in Borgo Panigale got it right when dirt roads give way to real off-roading.
