  1. Good deal! What tires did you need?
  2. Originally designed specifically for reaching those hard to reach screws on carburetors, the Motion Pro 90 Degree ¼” Hex Driver turned out to be a much more versatile tool than originally intended. The Motion Pro 90 Degree Hex Driver has a shallow, ¾” depth that allows you to reach into the tightest of spaces. This shallow depth combines with the 17 ½” length to make sure that there are very few fasteners that will still be out of reach. At the end of the tool you will find a gear drive that you can turn from the handle. Turns can be made in precise 22.5 degree increments thanks to detent, but this can be easily removed if you prefer a smooth, free spinning feel without the clicks. The gear drive connects to any of the six included bits, one of which is a ¼” square drive adapter for limitless versatility. One thing to keep in mind is that this hex driver was originally designed for carburetors, so it won’t be the best choice for working on large or seized screws and bolts, but it’s 50 inch/pound torque limit makes it perfect for any of the smaller, hidden ones you might come across. Make your next encounter with a hard to reach fastener much less frustrating by picking up a Motion Pro 90 Degree Hex Driver today! These aren’t listed on the RidersDiscount.com website yet, but you can get yours for just $57.00 shipped in the lower 48 states by calling Nathan at 866.931.6644 ext. 809, or by sending a PM through the forum.

  3. If you’re looking for inexpensive bodywork, but want something that fits right straight out of the box and doesn’t take four hours to prep - look no further than Armour Bodies Pro Series bodywork. Armour Bodies has been noted for their high-quality fit and finish. This is achieved through the use of full sheets of fiberglass when rendering parts in a mold. In this way, the bodywork can be made stronger and lighter than kits for the same bike from other manufacturers. In other words, you can expect it to hold up better in a crash since these fairings aren’t piecemealed together in an effort to save on manufacturing costs! Fitment is another issue that comes up with cheap aftermarket motorcycle bodywork. One of the main factors that prevents fiberglass bodywork from fitting correctly is that many manufacturers choose resins that shrink as they cure. The results are parts that don’t line up correctly and require several hours of prep time to fit on your bike. We’ve even seen homemade brackets employed to hold brand new bodywork in place! That’s not the case here. Armour Bodies Pro Series bodywork have displays a good fit straight out of the box thanks to the use of resins derived from use in kayaks. As an added bonus, these resins help the bodywork withstand chipping from rocks and other flying debris your bike will encounter out on the racetrack. And, the bodywork is also surprisingly flexible too. Best of all, when it comes time to paint, prep time is at a minimum since Armour Bodies Pro Series Bodywork is rough-finished at the factory where workers fill pin-holes, smooth edges and add a primer to make sure the overall finish is ready to paint after a light scuff.

  5. The one good thing about Yamaha not having changed their styling on the R6 in nearly 7 years makes me think i still have a new bike, even mine is 5 years old now :/ GLWS
  6. Are you able to clench your hand into a fist? If not, give me a call and we'll exchange them. PM on the way. Not necessarily. With the exception of the GP Pro, I'm wearing mediums in every glove we've showcased across multiple brands.
  7. Plenty of Held Titans available in both black and white/black. Give Nathan a call at 866.931.6644 ext. 809 and get yours shipped out fast!
  8. ^this. A lot of the people were in the upper grandstands, in the shade, and were a bit hard to see with the panning camera. I can't imagine what the Europeans think seeing that many empty seats. Good shots as usual!
  9. Extremely visible. Let me know if there is something else you're interested in that I can help you out with.
  10. Just in from Arai is the brand new DiSalvo version of the Corsair-V. The paint is an eye-catching combination of bright orange with gold flakes, gloss black, and and a subtle American flag motif each side. The high quality Arai paint is laid on top of their flagship Corsair-V, so you know it will offer top of the line protection as well. These aren't listed on the Riders Discount website yet, so be sure to contact Nathan if you're interested. You can send a PM through the forum or give him a call at 866.931.6644 ext. 809. If email is more convenient, feel free to send one to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM and we'll get back to you right away! The Arai Corsair-V DiSalvo is shown here with an optional dark smoke shield. Make no mistake when looking at the photos - this helmet is a bright orange! The gold flakes in the paint are hard to capture in photos, but they definitely show up in the sunlight.
  11. The Teknic Xcelerator gloves also come in white, and Riders Discount has them ready to ship to you.
  12. PM sent. PM me a price range and features you're wanting or some jackets you had in mind and I'll help you out.
  13. Our original post only shows the Vortice Air version with the perforations, but we also have the standard version available for those that are interested. Just remember that these are not listed on our website, so you'll need to get in touch with Nathan for more information. Feel free to call him at 866.931.6644 ext. 809 or send an email to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM. The standard Sidi Vortice, shown here in black, is also available in white/black. Here's a comparison between the standard and the perforated versions.
  14. Welcome! I know Ohio State has a growing motorcycle club with plenty of guys and gals looking for a ride as well as people on here.
  15. I just got one myself. I haven't touched my ratchet since.
  16. These are in stock ready to ship in either 3/8" or 1/4".
  17. PM on the way. These are about as comfortable as the Held gloves. Initially, the Held's are stiffer and need some more break in. However, I would give a step up to the Held's in terms of durability though.
  18. Teknic’s Xcelerator gloves have been around for a couple of years now, but that doesn’t mean that they are outdated by any means. The Xcelerators are a nicely balanced pair of gloves that offer solid protection while still providing excellent feel. This balance comes from the use of premium Japanese drum dyed cowhide for the upper and lighter, but very abrasion resistant kangaroo leather for the palm. Additional palm protection is provided by the 3mm Kevlar found throughout the heel of the palm and up through the pinky. As mentioned in nearly every glove review on the web, the instinctive reaction that most people have when falling is to throw their hands out in front of them. This means that the heel of the palm and wrist are especially vulnerable to injury. In order to help prevent injuries stemming from this kind of impact, Teknic added their patented Scaphoid Protection System (SPS) to the heel of the palm. These two hard protectors encourage the palms to slide instead of catching and directing the force into the wrist. Protection on the top half of the glove is provided by hard protectors on the wrist, knuckles and fingers that help disperse impact energy. There is also plenty of high density foam placed throughout the glove that helps with protection and comfort. The Xcelerators are quite comfortable from the start and they don’t require much of a break-in period. The aforementioned kangaroo palm is a big part of this, but it’s not the only factor. Pre-curved fingers with side seams mean that you won’t have material bunching up and digging in when you’re on the grips. Teknic uses extra kangaroo leather that actually wraps halfway around the fingers from the bottom and overlaps with the cowhide coming from the top so that the seams can be sewn at the sides of the fingers, rather than the bottom corners like traditional seams. This makes them more comfortable and makes them less likely to come in contact with anything abrasive. Additional comfort comes from the low density foam lining large sections of the wrist, knuckles and fingers. Top of the line gloves from most brands carry price tags that aren’t for the faint of heart, but that is not the case with the Teknic Xcelerators. They offer a lot of bang for the buck, so be sure to get in touch with Nathan if you’re interested or have any questions. You can give him a call at 866.931.6644 ext. 809, or shoot him a PM through the forum. If email is more convenient, feel free to send one to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM and we’ll get back to you right away! Teknic Xcelerator gloves come in black, as well as white/black. The palm of the Teknic Xcelerator uses kangaroo leather so that they can provide a high level of abrasion resistance with lighter and thinner material. The palm also features scaphoid protection and hidden Kevlar reinforcements. There is no lack of protection on the top of the hands. Hard armor is found on the fingers and knuckles. Pockets of high density foam also help absorb impact energy. Wrist protection comes from a hard protector and plenty of energy absorbing high density foam pads.
