    How big does the bed of a truck have to be to fit a bike gate closed?

    Thats my question. I'm picking up a new truck soon. Would a 5 1/2 foot bed be long enough to fit a bike with the gate closed? I'm lookin at the F150 raptor but I'm open to suggestions.

    Just wrecked my bike.

    Well, I just experienced my first and hopefully last street wreck. Was coming around a turn, admittedly to fast, and there were two ladys walking side by side about 1/2 way through the turn.

    I just wanted to give props to these guys. I ordered an RS Taichi suit from them and they were super helpfull with the whole process. Ordering from them is like calling a bunch of your buddies. They seem to be no bullshit and they do what they say. My .02

    How come no liter bikes?

    I've been noticing that most people are running 600's on the track rather than larger bikes like R1's etc. Is it because the 600's offer plenty of power on the track or some other reason?

    Crashing technique?

    Hopefully I won't go down to much this season but I'm a realist. I know that as I get more comfortable on the track, the horns will come out of my head. I'm interested if there are certain points to remember that might help me come out of a highside or lowside with less damage to my body. Almost...

    I'm quickly approaching my first track day in April. I will be using my street bike for the track. For those of you that do the same, do you put skins on your bike and strip them off after every track day or do you adapt your bike for the day and hope you dont screw them up. For those that do...

    Versa Haul sport bike carrier

    Has anyone ever used this type of carrier? I have an H1 hummer to lock it on to so weight wont be and issue. I don't have room to store a full trailer, so this is really my only option.
