    Whats the lowest profile skinniest helmet out there ?

    Yes, dot legal. Not much reason for a novelty helmet anymore with these on the market.

    Invitation to Organize: Central New York XS650 Owners

    Frame is finished, powdercoated, and re-assembly started.Tank and fender are out to paint, seat is out to be covered in leather. I can't finish the wiring, as electrical components mount to the rear fender and seat, the rear fender is part of the rear brake stay, so brake linkage cannot be...

    Whats the lowest profile skinniest helmet out there ?

    Outlaw or Daytona make the lowest profile I know of. Example... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Half-Helmets-Motorcycle-Half-Helmet-Skull-Cap-CARBON-FIBER-by-Daytona-/291521603435 A friend of mine has been stopped twice wearing his by cops who believed it to be a novelty helmet.

    Motul 5100 engine oil

    I've run Rotella 15W40 in my XS650 previously, but I run straight 50 in my antique chopper. Rotella currently has changed its formula due to diesel engines falling under emmisions so I can't recommend it anymore either. A proper motorcycle 20-50 would be right.

    NYS Super Swap 2016

    I would also point out that if you bring a guest for the two days, its worth it to enter a bike regardless of condition. they have classes for everything from stock to full custom, and its ~$40 to enter a bike and that gives you passes for two for two days, and allows you to bring a cooler as a...

    NYS Super Swap 2016

    Its our respite from the winter. This is the event for those of us living in those conditions that have to park them... On a critical end of things I must say I was disappointed in the blue and silver XS, not for any of its styling points necessarily. I was saddened by the lack of a brake...

    NYS Super Swap 2016

    Anyone who gets any bit of amusement out of it is more than welcome. I'm not a fan of all the bikes posted, and there are a good deal more not posted, I just wanted to offer a sample of those that were present. For a simple instance I'm not a fan of the big wheels or fat rear tires, so that...

    NYS Super Swap 2016

    Pretty sure thats it. I didn't take pics of everything, more of my own interest was in the swap meet portion of the event. I managed to get some tools, a few helmets, a mikuni VM for a sportster, and some other things. Was hoping to find a xs750 tank, but no dice on that.

    NYS Super Swap 2016

    Well Things didn't work out for me this year like I had hoped. I normally show my Chopper at this event and was hoping to have two bikes to show this year. I was targeting the metric class as in years past competition has been sparse, that was not the case this year. There was a few british, as...
