    Rotopax vs Armadillo

    I tried the starbucks coffee bladder. It works however just for a day or two. The fuel separated the liner so you get a bag within a bag. by my 3rd time using it, it would not pour out. I needed to stab the (now internal bag) to get the fuel out.

    I use this website when I was gearing for Grand Prix racing and now for my supermoto setup on my 300. They have a database of your bike's transmission ratio, and enter your wheel/tire size, then you can see what gearing changes would work https://www.gearingcommander.com/

    How To Remove a Motorcycle Helmet

    It was a decent one I was doing the TAT, we were in Colorado in the middle of nowhere. My bike at the time (wr250r) was overloaded and the lack poor quality rebound control of the rear shock was a bad combination. We were going down a gravel road and the bike got into a nasty wobble. We’re we’re pretty high elevation at I did not have enough motor to accelerate out of it. My GPS was recording our track which is how I know what speed I got tossed off at. anyways there was no cell service, we had a spot on us but luckily a ranger happen to see the dust bomb when I went down and drove over. She called in and said an ambulance was 2 hrs away. That’s when I said screw it and set my shoulder laying there. From riding MX tracks I’ve helped set a few shoulders so knowing just how tight the injured shoulder would be after 2 hrs and I had adrenaline pumping through me, so I figured might as well. I spent a couple days in the hospital until my O2 levels stabilized. I also fought with them because they wanted to remove my spleen. So luckily the internal bleeding stopped and I got to keep it. We had an RV so I rode home in that. The hospital was in Gunnison Colorado. I was back on my street bike 10 days after that because I already paid for a chuckwalla track day. It hurt lots and I remember in a turn my shoulder popped out then it went back in on the straight. @Rjg967 was with me that day. I’m an extremely stubborn person. Smart?? Probably not so much lol

    How To Remove a Motorcycle Helmet

    I have a shoei and an Arai helmet. Both have emergency tabs you pull and the side padding comes out, so helmet removal for emt’s is easier. After I had my big get off and highsided at 65 (according to my gps). I broke quite a few bones, dislocated shoulder, ruptured spleen, punctured lung and the helmet was cracked and it hit the bridge of my nose splitting it wide open. You could see the cartilage very clear. The inside of my helmet had a good amount of blood in it. I had to wait 2 hrs for emts to show up due to the location. I took my own helmet off and refused to let them cut my jacket boots and pants off. If I was not so stubborn the helmet removal tabs would have been super easy. I was running an ICON helmet. I made the move the shoei and Arai after that for that exact reason

    Radios to Sena hookup

    My ride group has been looking for something like this. I will have to do a little more research on these. I hope they come out with that button soon
