PM on the way, thanks.

Widely regarded as the most approachable rider in the elite class of the MotoGP circus, Colin Edwards is always worth a laugh every time someone puts a microphone in front of him. And he’ll be back in MotoGP next year riding a Suter-framed, BMW-powered CRT motorcycle. That’s because he’s widely recognized as an excellent development rider, having had a hand in everything from tire testing, to chassis setup and we’re sure he’s had some input with regard to Arai’s top-of-the-line Corsair-V helmet. In our opinion, it is simply the finest motorcycle crash helmet you can own. It’s comfortable, quiet, provides a wide field of vision and, with different-sized cheek pads and liners available – the Corsair-V can be tailored to fit your head perfectly.

You can read more about the Arai Corsair-V Edwards Replica on our website and then call Mike at 866.931.6644 x 804 for expert sizing guidance and fast, free shipping. If you prefer email, send those to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with ARAI EDWARDS REPLICA in the subject line and we’ll get back to you fast.

We are excited too.

So these would work in tandem with your brake light? Or you replace it?

You can make it work, designed to replace the stock stalks.

X-Arc Turn Signals are the latest aftermarket turn signals from High Tech Speed, the makers of Proton turn signals. The Massachusetts-based company designs and builds the X-Arc turn signals in the USA right at their Groveland facility. These turn signals employ newer high-flux LED elements that are brighter than conventional LED elements for turn signals that produce over 300 lumens of light. That’s the kind of brightness that will easily get the attention of other drivers! But, the best part of all is that these rear turn signals are small – measuring 21mm in diameter on a hull that’s 38mm long! The 15mm stalk through which the electrical wires run is completely removable so no matter what you’re riding, these motorcycle turn signals won’t break up the lines of even the cleanest custom ride.

CNC-machined from billet aluminum, each turn signal has a two-year manufacturer’s warranty and include an onboard microprocessor that allows them to flash at a normal rate without the need for any extra equipment. Three different light function styles are available:

X-Arc Red - dual intensity for running light and brake light

X-Arc Yellow - dual intensity for running light and turn signals

X-Arc Duo - Dual intensity red, plus yellow for full-function running light, brake light, and turn signal

We’ve sold many turn signals from High Tech Speed and have had nothing but excellent feedback from our customers because they’re durable, very bright and easy to see. Get a set for your motorcycle by calling Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 or, you can send him an email – FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM is the address with X-ARC TURN SIGNALS in the subject line and please be sure to specify the X-Arc Funciton / chassis color combination you want and we’ll get back to you right away.

X-Arc turn signals in satin black.

The X-Arc’s aluminum stalk can be removed for flush-mount applications.

Small, yet very, very bright.

This is awesome.

Riders Discount has repeatedly impressed me as a vendor over the course of the last 4 years, but last season it seemed like they REALLY stepped things up. Between the R1 and S1000R builds, supporting club-level guys like Sam, and stepping up to the plate to keep Jake Holden racing in the AMA, I was beyond impressed.

Partnering with the folks at Vesrah is just going to put everyone over the edge. The 2012 race season should be amazing.

I really appreciate those kind words, we are very excited for next season! Stay tuned!

I'd be willign to do some photo work for you guys again like I did with some slow guy named Sam that you might know.

Wow...I am glad Sam isn't on this forum

Ben's probably already looking in our servers he's that good.

If you guys ever need a nerd to do your IT work, hang out at races, etc..., let me know.

I will keep you in mind

Ho. Ly. Shit.

That's awesome.

Thanks Ben!

RidersDiscount.com and Vesrah Suzuki are pleased to announce they will compete in the 2012 AMA Pro Roadracing series as Team RidersDiscount.com Vesrah Suzuki. Both teams have a vast amount of racing experience on a variety of equipment from two-stroke GP racers to full-on superbikes and endurance machines in many different series over the last two decades. In 2011, each team individually celebrated a great deal of success both, at the club level and in AMA Pro Roadracing. Now, with the goal of even better results in the 2012 AMA season, the teams join forces under one tent where the combined efforts will certainly have an impact on their riders’ results in both AMA SuperSport and AMA Daytona SportBike.

Fans can expect an announcement on the rider lineup for the 2012 RidersDiscount.com Vesrah Suzuki team very shorty.

Breeann Poland, Team Manager – “Last Season when my team lost the title sponsor, RidersDiscount.com decided to step up to the plate and take my team on. They not only helped to keep the team running but they went over and beyond to promote the team and increase awareness of the sport overall. I am so excited to be joining forces with them again for 2012. After I took the job over at Vesrah Suzuki with Mark Junge, it seemed like the only piece in the puzzle left missing was getting RidersDiscount.com to come on board. Well that has happened and I can't wait to get things rolling for next season.

We will have a full line-up next year with complete support from RidersDiscount.com! Stay tuned for more exciting information from the RidersDiscount.com Vesrah Suzuki Team.”

Mark Junge, owner Vesrah Suzuki – “I am very excited about RidersDiscount.com joining the team for 2012. We have spent some time together since the season has ended. The team has been getting to know Brian Gibson and his crew at RidersDiscount.com. They too, are racers and know what it takes to make a good racing program. I am happy they have decided to come on board with us at Vesrah Suzuki. I saw their commitment to Breeann's program last season and I was impressed. RidersDiscount.com is a huge asset to the Vesrah Program.

We have also made RidersDiscount.com one of our Vesrah Racing vendors. This relationship will help customers get the high quality Vesrah racing pads easier than ever.”

Brian Gibson owner, RidersDiscount.com – “After working with Breeann Poland last year and doing a few tests at the end of the season with Mark Junge it became apparent that there was great chemistry with RidersDiscount.com and Vesrah Suzuki. We all get along great and I feel that our combined efforts will make for a very strong team next year in the AMA. I look forward to the start of the 2012 season and seeing the RidersDiscount.com Vesrah Suzuki’s on the box.”

PM on the way, thanks.

I noticed a lot of the boot manufacturers are starting to use the snowboard boot style tightening system.

Thanks Ben, now it is snowing outside here.

If you haven't upgraded to Alpinestars' top-of-the-line Supertech R boots, what are you waiting for? They're the most comfortable motorcycle boots we know of that offer a serious amount of protection.

Biomechanical foot insert is designed to allow the foot to flex normally while preventing injurious overextension. It also aids in impact distribution to take the bite out of a hard hit to the ground.

Shifter pads over the toes keep leather from wearing through prematurely.

An upper gasket prevents water intrusion and closely grips the rider's leathers.

Winter is fast approaching in the northern latitudes and if you expect to find yourself outside in the snow for an extended amount of time – be it work or play, then take a look at the HMK Team Boa boots. Rated for comfort down to -58°F, HMK boots use a combination of the best technical materials for exceptional cold weather comfort. Water is kept out with a Sympatex waterproof membrane. This material not only keeps your feet dry, but also allows them to breathe, eliminating the potential for sweat, which would then quickly rob them of heat in a cold environment. Sympatex also provides a high degree of wind protection. For users that want a custom fit, Intuition closed cell foam liners are fitted as standard. These liners can be heat molded, so they’ll contour themselves to your feet perfectly. There is one drawback to foam liners, they’re prone to mold and the stink that comes with it. Fear not! HMK employs an Aegis microbe shield to prevent the growth of foul-smelling bacteria within the liner. And then there’s the matter of the Vibram Grip Light outsole for traction. This fantastic piece of soft-compound rubber features an array of lugs for biting into snow for slip-free performance going uphill, or down – through almost any type of snow.

All of these materials, along with the Boa lacing system, provide unsurpassed comfort along with a high degree of surefootedness in a lightweight design that simply would not be possible with a conventional liner.

These boots are not yet available on our website. To order, call Mike at 866.931.6644 x 804 or send a note to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with HMK TEAM BOA boots in the subject line, specify the color you want (black or white) and we’ll get back to you right away.

HMK Team Boa boots are available in black or white colors.

Vibram outsole gives any wearer the surefootedness akin to that of a mountain goat.

Intuition liner can be heated up and then molded to your own feet for a perfect fit and a sure grip over rough, snowy terrain.

Lacing up does not get any simpler than this. The Boa Lace system can be used even while wearing gloves to provide even tension all around the foot.

Not one, but deux! – grab handles are available to make getting into, or our of, these HMK boots easier.

Hiking boots for the road, anyone? Alpinestars has you covered with the CR-4 Gore-Tex XCR Boots. These waterproof motorcycle boots are ideal for any rider that likes to ride his bike to distant places and then, hike further off the beaten path. They’re also exceptionally comfortable for work around town and the Gore-Tex waterproof membrane means your feet will stay dry too. Fabricated with a combination of polyurethane-coated leather, suede and textile panels – these look more like hiking boots than riding boots. But, that doesn’t mean protection isn’t built in – two shanks run the length of the sole and extra foam padding has been inserted around the ankles. Plus, a PU-coated leather patch resides just above the toes so shifting won’t wear into them at all. Inside, a breathable mesh liner greets the foot and reinforcements are provided for the toe and heal areas for extra protection. The feet rest atop a comfortable, anatomically-shaped footbed for comfort. As you can see, the spec sheet reads a lot like a high end hiking boot, only better!

These riding boots are not yet available on our website, for more information – call Mike at 866.931.6644 x 804 or send a note to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with ALPINESTARS CR4 GORE-TEX XCR BOOTS in the subject line and we’ll get back to you right away.

Alpinestars CR4 Gore-Tex XCR boots come in three different colors.

Surefootedness is the subject of this wrap-around rubber outsole that’s contoured for grip in wet or dry conditions. Two separate shanks are used within for extra protection but still permit comfortable range of movement.

Strong metal eyelets run along the top of each boot with two pairs of metal hooks at the top end which allow you to easily tension the laces to your liking.

The ankle is protected on both sides by foam backed, double density impact panels. A reflective insert has also been fitted.

EVA footbed is not only perforated to encourage airflow, but it’s also anatomically shaped for improved comfort and better control of the motorcycle.

To carry the Gore-Tex name, the equipment in question must be certified by Gore-Tex labs to function as advertised. This assures that the end user receives exactly what’s expected of the equipment in question.

Both toes are covered by PU-impregnated leather that’s designed to withstand years of shifting without wearing through.

The R-77 exhaust is Yoshimura’s flagship model. Fabricated in the USA, this particular exhaust system comes nearly fully-assembled out of the box and includes an aluminum lower heat shield to tidy up the look of the Honda after installation. Built with stainless steel headers this full exhaust system comes with carbon fiber muffler that’s topped off with a carbon fiber end cap. Weighing less than OEM, the R-77 exhaust is proven to increase the CBR1000RR’s power output throughout nearly the entire RPM range without any additional mapping. With a proper tune, you can expect even greater power gains and better throttle response.

Available for 2008-2011 Honda CBR1000RR only.

This R77 exhaust sale is not available on our website. To order, call Mike at 866.931.6644 x 804 and we’ll get this in the post to you fast!

The exhaust as it comes out of the box.

There is no need to fuss with exhaust hanger clamps because Yoshimura includes a beautifully CNC-machined piece for attaching the muffler to the Honda.

As usual, the welds are top notch and then polished to a nice shine.

Header assemblies are built with bungs where they merge with the collector pipes to ensure not only proper fit against the exhaust valves, but also to retain the proper tuned length and, consequently, maximum power output.

The Yosh R77 utilizes stock mounting points for the midpipe and includes a lambda sensor port.

Teknic Xcelerator gloves are built with a combination of modern materials and innovative safety technology wrapped into an effective hand protection package. Starting with a Japanese drum dyed cowhide chassis with .8mm thick kangaroo palms, the gloves provide a surprising amount of flexibility, translate an excellent feel through the bars and do it all with a high degree of impact protection and abrasion resistance. Aiding the kangaroo’s hide on the pinkie side of the hand and wrapping under the palm is a layer of Kevlar sewn in below an extra layer of leather. This is done in the areas most likely to come into contact with the ground in a fall. Throughout the gloves, impact-dispersing hard armor inserts can be found on the knuckles, at the base of the palms and at the ulna side of each wrist. The armor on the knuckles do double duty as intakes to direct cooling air straight to the skin. Furthermore, a combination of high density closed cell foam and low density open cell foam are found around the aforementioned hard armor and on the thumb and pinkie sides of each hand to provide secondary impact protection and aid in comfort. Each glove is pre-curved to impart a neutral feel over the bars and prevent leather from bunching up under the palms.

Teknic riding gear is not yet available on our website. To order these gloves, call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 for expert sizing guidance and fast shipping. You can also email us with your questions – send those to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with TEKNIC XCELERATOR GLOVES in the subject line and we’ll get back to you right away.

Teknic Xcelerator gloves in solid black. MSRP $219.99

These gloves are also available in white. MSRP $219.99

Patented scaphoid protectors reduce the likelihood of mechanical injury by encouraging the palms slide, rather than catch, on pavement in the event of a crash. In this way, your wrist(s) is/are less likely to be forced to bend to the point where the scaphoid would be forced to break.

Palms are constructed from kangaroo skin and reinforced with Kevlar and an additional layer of leather near the wrist and along the side of the pinkie finger. The rest of the chassis is drum-dyed Japanese cowhide and assembled using innovative stitching techniques.

Each gauntlet uses a double-wrist closure to go over your leather suit. The wrist strap itself is hidden behind a protective flap and has Velcro tabs on both, it’s inner and outer faces to provide a sure fit and maximum safety.

Perhaps a nice RPS-10 helmet to go with your Alpinestars Monster jacket?
