Here we go again. Yes, new bike means new racks (to see the process we used for the Tiger 900, refer to the other Give Luggage Rack story). The help we got in picking out the racks and where we got them, etc. is the same old story (keep in

With the new 2023 Triumph Tiger 1200 Explorer, the handlebar stem is vastly different. On my Tiger 900, I mounted the GPS in the middle of the handlebar stem so it was centered and easy to view while driving. The 1200 that is not possible since the handlebar stem is

In the beginning, I did not really see a need to enlarge the footprint of the side stand. Then I went to a bike show and parked in the grass. Lets just say my bike ended up on its side. After finding a rock, I decided that bigger is better.

No, this is not a duplicate post but a brand new install for the Hepco and Becker handlebar guards for my new Triumph Tiger 1200 Explorer. I love these guards. They can take a hit (believe me, my Tiger 900 tested that out many times over). They also look great

I purchased the latest Sena SRL2 Mesh intercom system for my Shoei GT II Air helmet. My older Sena was having battery issues (I was only getting about 4-5 hours of life out of the battery). And with our big trip comign up in September, I wanted more battery life.

I walked by my bike and noticed that I had an aluminum nail in my new'ish rear tire.  There is no telling when or where the puncture occurred and there was no indication of low tire pressure by the TPMS.  The bike is in a garage and not

The more riding we do, I have noticed quite a number of rocks being thrown my way. I think most it has to do with Kirk usually taking the lead (thanks Kirk). It got me thinking more about my headlamp. A few months back, I looked into a headlight protector

Kirk and I decided to invest in a "dash cam". Yes, I know. We really do not have a dashboard but could not think of a better name. Essentially, we now have a camera that comes on and records when ever the bike is started. Initially we mounted

Before we get started, the Sena SRL2 Bluetooth communication system is only available for the SHOEI GT-Air II and Neotec II helmets. Scot uses the GT-Air II and Kirk uses the Neotec II. Sena does make other communication devices but we liked this setup since it is completely integrated. There

I love it when we find a product that solves an issue for us. In this case, this little device is a god send. So what is a ThunderBox? As stated best from their site: The ThunderBox simplifies and safeguards the process of connecting aftermarket electronic accessories (such as extra

We wrote a story Don't Lose Your Bike which talked about the MoniMoto GPS Tracker. We ordered it but had not been delivered in our hands so we could test it. Well it arrive this past week and we could not wait to install and give it a

Both of us have been talking about getting a recovery system for our bikes just for that one occasion where the bike goes down a small embankment and trying to push it back up is a bit of a daunting task. Luckily up to this point, most spills have been

As a whole, the Tiger has plenty of protection but one area that both of us were concerned with was the handlebars. Yes, we know that laying the bike down is inevitable and we want to try to lessen any damage to not only the handlebars but also the clutch/

In our luggage write up, we mentioned that you need to be very careful when purchasing the racks. Ask a lot of questions as it is very easy to order the incorrect pieces ESPECIALLY when incorporating a top box. There are so many different plates and the part numbers are
