January 19th, 2012 VersysRider So why do I even need a GPS unit for my motorcycle? I know how to read a paper map. I’ve been doing it for years. Granted, It is a hassle to have to stop your bike to flip over the map, attached to your tankbag, to a new section so that you can continue [...]

January 17th, 2012 VersysRider The Yuasa brand battery that came with my 2002 Honda CBR1100XX finally began to have difficulty holding a charge. After five years of faithful service it was worn out.

Product Eval: Wheel Jockey
January 14th, 2012 VersysRider I received the “Wheel Jockey” as a Christmas present and it does come in handy. I own a 1996 Honda Magna 750 that has a wet weight of approximately 500 lbs.

January 14th, 2012 VersysRider With the untimely demise of the “Silver Slug” (my 2002 BMW R1150RT), due to an electrical failure (the main wiring harness shorted out), and a generous check from Progressive Insurance, my wife and I were in the market for a new motorcycle. Since the Slug had been my primary scooter for officiating bicycle races as [...]
