  1. Any time a group of riders get together and the conversation turns to helmets, there's going to be at least one mention of Arai helmets. Why not get your own Arai? We've got Nicky 3 Stars helmets in stock and ready to ship! All of these helmets are Snell M2010 approved and have recent build dates. Call our expert Arai helmet fitting staff today to get this helmet shipped to you fast!
  2. 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.
  3. Perhaps a nice RPS-10 helmet to go with your Alpinestars Monster jacket?
  4. This is your last chance to get top-shelf Alpinestars protection for the low price of $149 with free shipping to any address in the lower 48 states! Take advantage of this Alpinestars sale before it’s too late – quantities are limited – call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 before we run out! Alpinestars SMK jackets are made with 1.2-1.4mm high-quality bovine leather and include CE-certified armor in the elbows and shoulders for impact protection. There’s also a foam padded insert in the back which can be upgraded with a CE-certified back protector for a nominal fee. This leather jacket is designed with comfort in mind, with stretch accordion panels located in the shoulders and just behind the elbows. These impart an extra degree of flexibility while providing full-coverage abrasion resistance. A comfortable neoprene liner is used on the neck and both wrists to keep leather from chaffing the skin and there’s also a fully-removable internal liner so you can adapt the jacket to a wide range of riding conditions. Blue jackets only – available in sizes 46 and 48 These are not available on our website at this Alpinestars sale price so you must call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 to order today! Zip-out liner means this jacket is ready for the weather – good or bad. Velcro adjustment tabs at the lower flanks work with neoprene inserts to snug things up to your liking. Accordion-style flex panels on the shoulders for ease of movement. Large exhaust vent directly below the neck takes advantage of negative air pressure behind the rider as he moves along to suck hot air out, keeping you cool on hot days.
  5. Knock 16lbs off your Triumph Speed Triple’s weight with the installation of this handy slip-on exhaust from Competition Werkes. Fabricated entirely from 304 series stainless steel and welded to perfection, the GP slip-on exhaust has a look like no other exhaust on the market. Each pipe is precision made to fit the Triumph perfectly using a tapered baffle for better exhaust performance. And, for those of you concerned about noise, a removable decibel killer is included as standard. To order yours, give Mike a call at 866.931.6644 ext 804 for fast, same day shipping. You can also send your questions to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with SPEED TRIPLE EXHAUST in the subject line and we’ll get back to you promptly. Each GP Slip-on kit comes complete with all required mounting hardware and simple installation instructions. Our favorite aspect of Competition Werkes GP exhausts? The welded sections where the pipe bends. It’s akin to that of the “kit” exhausts found on the bygone two-stroke road racing motorcycles. Tapered muffler baffle has a provision to install the included sound-deadening insert. Built like a tank – there’s no reason for these brackets to fail.
  6. We ship all Öhlins suspension components with the springs you need for your weight and riding style.
  7. Riders Discount is now offering TTX shocks for those who demand the best suspension performance in the world! Comprised of technology derived from Öhlins’ work in MotoGP, World Superbike and other top competitive series, you can expect better feedback, more grip and ultimately – more confidence after this shock is bolted to your motorcycle. These are the same components used by top teams in AMA Pro racing and all over the world. They’re also the only shocks we install on our own racebikes. TTX shocks are nearly infinitely adjustable to suit any rider’s needs making them an indispensable tool for performance riders. The TTX shock has gone through many less than obvious upgrades since it was introduced a few years back based upon the knowledge gained in the Swedish suspension company’s racing efforts. For 2010 a new piston design with less internal friction was incorporated along with revised valving for a more consistent dynamic behavior. Plus, now all TTX shocks are drilled and tapped to accept data acquisition equipment. Öhlins Suspension components are not yet available on our website. To order a shock set up for your specific needs, call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804. You can also email us for more information – send those to FORUM at RIDERSDICOUNT dot COM with ÖHLINS TTX SHOCK in the subject line along with the model and year of the motorcycle you’re riding and we’ll get back to you right away. In addition to TTX shocks, don’t forget to ask about other Öhlins products available from Riders Discount! Every shock will come set up for your weight and riding style. Because Öhlins TTX shocks use separate valves for controlling compression and rebound circuits, changes made to one valve will have no effect on the other. With the increasing popularity of data acquisition at the club-racer level, TTX shocks now come machined to accept hardware for attaching linear potentiometer sensors. All Öhlins TTX shocks are preload adjustable. Where there is room available, the shock will come with a hydraulic preload adjuster built-in to the cylinder head. Otherwise, a remote preload adjuster is supplied. We also have complete suspension kits available for riders that demand the best overall package possible. Ohlins TTX Shock for a YZF-R6v. Ohlins Suzuki GSXR600 TTX shock. Shock length is adjustable. Built-in preload adjuster. Ohlin's newest compression and rebound adjusters make it easier for your suspension tuner to service these shocks. And for those of you with a BMW S1000RR, we have complete suspension kits with everything from Road & Track forks down to steering dampers. Our BMW S1000RR shocks from Ohlins also have the latest rebound and compression adjusters mounted. And, with the rise in popularity of data acquisition equipment that are not only affordable, but simple to use, Ohlins' latest shocks come ready to accept hardware for mounting DAQ components ... ... as do their latest FGRT forks.
  8. Just doing some fall cleaning at the shop, we have some "take offs" from the track which are good for "stunting". Shagged out slicks by NTEC for $50 shipped a set if interested shoot me a call or PM. So you know, we always have Dunlop slicks and occasional DOT tires that come off the track.
  9. We’ve been advertising on the motorcycle forums for some time now with street-specific gear. But, did you know we also do offroad motocross and ATV gear too? For anything from motocross boots to helmets and all the apparel you need plus parts and accessories – you can get it directly from RidersDiscount.com with free shipping to any address in the lower 48 states! Just give Mike a call at 866.931.6644 x 804 for all your MX / Offroad / ATV gear needs and we’ll get back to you right away. You can also send us an email for any of your gear needs – send those to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM and let us know exactly what you need – we can get just about anything for offroad riding! Alpinestars Tech 10 motocross boots Asterisk Cell Knee Brace Akrapovic offroad exhaust systems. Fox Racing apparel. Leatt Neck protection.
  10. Choose between vented and non-vented versions for your expected riding climate. To improve the wear characteristics of the previous-generation Supertech R boots, Alpinestars has updated the lacing system of the biomechanical foot insert with a longer-wearing chord. Not much to get caught up on the sides of your motorcycle here, which, is a good thing!
  11. That's at the top - how often are you running the bike at 11,000rpm on the street - let alone at the track? Mid-range is where it counts, not only for street riding, but it's also where racers almost always want more power as it's the most useable. Mid-range grunt is what gets you off the corner and down the straights faster than the big numbers at the top of the RPM range which your average rider probably can't handle anyway when fully-leaned over. Top-end power numbers can be deceiving, it's mid-range that matters most these days.
  12. Get this carbon fiber slip-on exhaust for 2008 and up Honda CBR1000RR motorcycles shipped to any address in the lower 48 for $595! The R-77 exhaust is Yoshimura’s flagship model and the same design they use on their AMA American SuperBike motorcycles. What’s especially interesting about this exhaust for the CBR1000RR is the tuned-length design of the midpipe. With this plumbing, power output is significantly improved between 3,000 to 9,000 RPM on a CBR that has no custom map. You can imagine the extra power available with a Bazzaz or Power Commander system and a proper map! The slip-on also comes with an all-aluminum heat shield to tidy up the look of the lower end on the Honda. This special pricing is available only for carbon fiber R-77 slip-on exhausts for the 2008+ Honda CBR1000RR. This CBR1000RR carbon fiber slip-on exhaust sale is for FORUM MEMBERS ONLY - call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 to order. As always, shipping is free to the lower 48 states. Everything that comes in the box: heat shield, muffler, clear instructions, a sound baffle (for those of you concerned about noise) and even a nice exhaust spring tool. Yoshimura employs a CNC-milled exhaust hanger bracket. No, it’s not the cheapest route, but it is sturdy and looks good. Brushed aluminum heat shield. Carbon fiber endcap has a provision to insert the included sound baffle. The s-bend midpipe permits installation of the OEM Lambda sensor or one from either a Power Commander AutoTune or Bazzaz Z-AFM. As usual, Yoshimura construction is top notch. Dyno graph as provided by Yoshimura. This is on an un-mapped CBR.
  13. The Supersport clutch lever kit from CRG is not your average clutch perch, but rather a simple high-quality replacement for your OEM clutch perch and lever. Its dual 16mm bearings provide a seamless lever feel that can help you improve your green flag / green light performance off the line. As with all CRG levers, length of reach is adjustable via a large red adjuster rheostat located near the lever’s pivot joint. Clutch play can easily be adjusted via the same kind of index knob found on most OEM perches. Dialing in the right feel is made possible with an adjustable clutch lever ratio function which can be set in one of three positions to suit almost any rider’s taste. Plus, you probably won’t have to modify your motorcycle’s wiring as these kits accept the installation of OEM clutch safety switches for most late model Yamahas, Hondas & Suzukis. Just like all other CRG parts and accessories, CRG Supersport clutch lever kits are precision machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and tumble-polished for a smooth, snag-free finish. Available in gray (shown), black or gold finishes with either shorty or standard length levers, call Mike at 866-931-6644 ext 804 to order. You can also send an email to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with the subject line CRG SUPERSPORT CLUTCH KIT in the subject line - be sure to specify what color and length you want and we’ll get back to you right away. The Supersport Clutch lever kit. Built with CRG’s proven adjustment mechanism for a perfect reach to the clutch lever. Simple adjustable receiver for varying lever ratio. Notice the brass plate, which allows the installation of the OEM clutch safety switch. High-quality stainless steel hardware is fitted as standard. A simple universal installation fits all late-model sportbikes with 7/8” diameter bars.
  14. We don't know of any other back protector on the market that offers the same combination of comfort and protection as the Forcefield Pro Sub 4 back protector. And, independent Forcefield back protector reviews continue to reinforce what we already know - that the Pro Sub 4 absorbs more energy, and consequently, makes the crash more survivable than any other device on the market. If you've been wearing the same device for the past few seasons, now is the time to upgrade as materials have come a long way in recent years and the Pro Sub 4 is no exception. Offering superior impact absorption and a high level of ventilating comfort, we're sure you'll be satisfied with this particular back protector the first time you try it!
  15. Riders Discount is pleased to now carry the Pro Sub 4 Back Protector from Forcefield Body Armour – arguably the best back protector on the market today. While Forcefield is a relative newcomer in the impact protection arena, their top-of-the-line Pro Sub 4 offers a very high amount of impact protection. The Pro Sub 4 transmits an average of 3.38kN of force when subjected to the standard CE EN1621-2 test, the lowest score we’ve yet to see from a back protector subjected to this test. Amongst the medical community, 4kN of force is described as the maximum threshold that a healthy adult male’s back and ribs can experience before severe trauma occurs. In fact, newer automobiles employ load-limiting seatbelts that are designed to “give” a little when the force exerted upon them in a crash exceeds 4kN, specifically to reduce injury. Studies have reinforced the concept that seatbelts equipped with 4kN limiters reduce incidences of serious or fatal injuries to the chest area by 80%. So, why would you wear a back protector that transmits anything more than that? Testing EN 1621-2 certification requires that the PPE, in this case, the Pro Sub 4 Back Protector, be subjected to five impacts of 50 Joules each in the middle upper area of the back as it would be worn under normal conditions. CE Level 1 armor will produce a mean transmission of no more than 18kN with a maximum single impact to transmit no more than 24kN of force. CE Level 2 armor, when subjected to the same tests, is to transmit a mean of no more than 9kN of force while no single impact can exceed 12kN of transmitted force. In testing, the Forcefield Pro Sub 4 transmitted no greater than 3.45kN of force, with an average of 3.38kN over SEVEN separate impacts, more than the required five tests as directed be EN 1621-2. The narrow range of measured impact forces (as measured via EN 1621-2) both high, and low - to that of the average impact force is indicative of the quality that’s built into the Sub Pro 4 Back Protector. For reference, another British protective armor company’s top-of-the-line back protector transmits “only 6kN of energy” when subjected to the same tests, a significant difference. And remember, it is said that it only takes 4kN of force to induce serious injuries to the thorax. Clearly, Level 2 certification is the superior mark to go for – and the Pro Sub 4 clears this hurdle with a large margin, but what exactly constitutes 50 Joules of energy? It’s roughly the equivalent of a brick dropped from a height of two meters. And while that may not sound too bad, try dropping a brick on your forearm from one foot. Does that sound any less painful? This number, 50 Joules - was arrived at based upon the idea that it approximates the energy presented to the rider in a crash on a motorcycle and consequently, it is applied in EN 1621-2 testing. What’s Inside Why would you buy an expensive back protector that only offers maximum protection with one crash? Unlike much of the armor produced by other companies, Forcefield’s Pro Sub 4 Back Protector is good for more than just one use as it does NOT employ a plastic honeycomb impact-absorbing material. Instead, the Pro Sub 4 uses two separate sheets of flexible multi-layered, multi-density armor with Repeat Performance Technology. As indicated by the previously mentioned EN 1621-2 testing, multiple impacts do not reduce the Pro Sub 4’s ability to absorb and reduce the transmission of forces to the wearer. Furthermore, the outermost facing side of the armor is covered with a flexible plastic shell. This outer shell does two things: 1). Spreads impact forces over a larger area and 2). Reduces the likelihood of an object (like a footpeg) from penetrating the back protector and causing additional serious trauma to the wearer. This is something the engineers at Forcefield worked very hard at since the latter benefit is hard to achieve in a back protector that’s as flexible as the Pro Sub 4. Comfort Comfort and protection are often mutually exclusive attributes to motorcycle back protectors. The Pro Sub 4 happens to be both. Flexibility is obtained through the intelligent use of energy-absorbing materials like the multi-density armor found herein. And unlike many back protectors on the market, the inner armor isn’t bonded to the outer sheath at its edges, which further aids in its ability to mold itself to your body. Furthermore, breathability is obtained by an outer cover that works with holes in the armor to keep your backside cool. User-adjustable shoulder straps and a kidney belt are fitted as standard, allowing the wearer to position the back protector to his or her needs which in turn, provides the greatest possible protection. Sizes of small to extra-larger are available to fit a wide range of shapes and sizes. The end result is a back protector that can be properly positioned with ease and will quickly molds itself to the body for an extremely comfortable fit. And because motorcycle riding often leads to perspiration, the inner armor can be easily removes so that the outer shell can be hand washed to keep it fresh. Forcefield Armor is not yet available on our website. For more information, call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 or send an email to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with FORCEFIELD PRO SUB 4 in the subject line and we’ll get back to you right away. The Forcefield Pro Sub 4 Back Protector offers the highest published impact absorption numbers we’ve yet to see from any manufacturer – less than 4kN of force is transmitted to the wearer in EN 1621-2 testing for CE certification. Adjustable shoulders straps and a two-stage kidney belt provide a comfortable, yet very secure placement of the back protector against the body. In addition to acting as a back protector, the Pro Sub 4 also features padded sides to cover the sides of the torso near the kidneys. Internal armor is fully removable, allowing the user to hand wash the liner after extensive use, keeping everything fresh. The large white sheet you see here is a plastic cover that helps prevent blunt force trauma from an impact with a footpeg, handlebar or other small, dense object. Still, the armor is surprisingly flexible. Instead of using one large piece of armor, Forcefield chooses instead to use two separate pieces to cover the wearer’s back. In this manner, the unit can be made much more flexible (read comfortable) to the rider while at the same time providing substantial impact protection. The rider-facing side of the back protector is covered with a soft, comfortable mesh liner. Even if you’re not wearing any sort of riding underwear, it’s comfortable against the skin. What good is a back protector if it makes you sweat so badly that you don’t want to wear it? Forcefield addresses this concern with a series of ventilation holes molded into the armor that, when combined with the back protector’s outer shell, provide a significant degree of ventilation. This photo was taken less than a minute after the back protector was put on. Notice that there are no large gaps between the wearer’s back and the Pro Sub 4 – it quickly molds itself to your body’s contours for a comfortable fit and maximum protection. The suit-facing side of the Forcefield back protector is covered with a low-friction fabric allowing you to easily put your suit on over the armor. Unlike other back protectors, there are no large rubber logos or rubber piping to catch and pull at your leathers which, in turn, requires you to do a little dance just to get your suit on! No other back protector we’ve seen offers the amount of high protection and comfort that you get from a Pro Sub 4. This will be the choice of RD staff riders for 2011.
  16. Ogio continues to set the standard for high-quality motorcycle gear luggage with the Trucker 8800 Limited Edition bag in the Quasar color scheme. Measuring 15” high x 18” wide x 32” long to deliver 9,150 cubic inches of space, we found plenty of room within to store all of the typical riding gear. The entire chassis is fabricated from a tough 600D PVC/Tarpaulin fabric that will continue to look good after years of service. The Trucker 8800 LE Quasar is built with oversized wheels and a telescoping boom so you can easily roll the bag over rough terrain, or if you prefer, use the included shoulder strap to carry the bag over unsuitable surfaces. A large U-shaped zipper allows easy access to the cavernous main compartment of which, on either side are found mesh pockets to help organize your gear. But this is more than just a motorcycle gear bag – use it when you travel with the airlines too! After all, Ogio guarantees their luggage for life so you can rest assured that even the most disgruntled of baggage throwers isn’t going to destroy this bag. Ogio bags are the preferred brand of luggage for the entire RidersDiscount.com staff – to order yours, call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 or, send an email to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with OGIO TRUCKER 8800 LE QUASAR in the subject line, along with the color you want and we’ll get back to you right away. The Trucker 8800 from Ogio in the LE Quasar color scheme. We loaded this bag with a helmet, full leathers and boots and found there was still room to spare for a back protector and other riding accessories. A separate boot/helmet compartment allows you to keep those items separate for easy and quick retrieval. Also, notice the large web structure that helps to prevent your gear from becoming stale during long term storage. Should you not be interested in using the included shoulder strap, a telescoping handle and wheels are there to take the load off your back. Big zippers and high-quality workmanship mean that it’s unlikely you’ll ever have to take advantage of Ogio’s lifetime warranty.
  17. Goodridge Superbike Pro stainless steel brake lines greatly increase the efficiency of your motorcycle’s brake system by reducing the amount of effort required at the brake lever to create effective stopping power. This is because every critical component of these stainless steel braided brake lines employs an all-metal construction that resists expansion due to heat and pressure much more effectively than OEM rubber brake lines. Furthermore, these components easily resist wear and tear to the point that Goodridge guarantees them forever. In testing, Goodridge stainless steel brake lines are proven to take 20 feet out of a stop made at 100mp/h when compared to OEM rubber lines. This easily makes them one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make to your motorcycle, especially from a safety and performance standpoint. With bikes becoming more and more compact, while the steering head of their frames seem to keep getting bigger - space is at an even greater premium. This is another advantage of the 1-into-2 brake line format. With only one line coming off the master cylinder, you have more leeway in setting your controls just the way you want, without having to compromise space for comfort. A metal T-junction splits the single line into two for routing the stainless steel lines to each front brake caliper. We’ve used these very same brake lines on our own racebikes for the reasons listed above. Each kit is made with black-coated stainless steel hoses and includes all the required stainless steel banjo bolts and crush washers. We have kits available for the following makes and models: Honda CBR600RR all years CBR1000RR all years Kawasaki ZX-6RR 2005-2006 ZX-6R 2005-2011 ZX-10R 2006-2011 ZX-14 all years Suzuki GSX-R600 2006 and up GSX-R750 2006 and up GSX-R1000 2005 and up GSX-1300R Yamaha YZF-R6v all years YZF-R1 2004-2011 For more information, call Mike at 866.931.6644 ext 804 or send an email to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with GOODRIDGE SUPERBIKE PRO LINES in the subject line along with the model and year of the bike you ride and we’ll get back to you right away. Goodridge Superbike Pro Racing Kits With a single line coming off the master cylinder, it becomes much easier to run the brake lever as steep as you need. If you have a bike with throttle cables that are run under the clip-on, the benefits are even more useful when space is at a premium. Goodridge Superbike Pro lines as fitted to our Yamaha YZF-R1 AMA Superbike. The split in the line off the master cylinder is visible just below the lower triple clamp. Having the single T-fitting off the master cylinder just in front of the lower triple clamps gives you one the cleanest installation possible from a brake line kit.
  18. Let's not forget that I have to deal with him too. The price is a fair starting point, the countless amount of hours that went in to this bike is not included in the price of what we have into it. For example, one Technician at $50/hour X 160 hours. That is $8000.00 for what we would be a discounted rate for a Factory Technician.
  19. I thought the $22,893.59 discount was enough.
