http://www.cyclematters.com The lastest product reviews and ratings from Cycle Matters. Sat, 17 May 2008 11:05:18 MST en-us How many of you shine your bike every time you ride it? Well, if you're like me and want that shine and you want that shine to last, then try MAAS Metal Polish and MAAS Metal Protector & Chrome Polish. I tried both products, and compared MAAS to other brands. There is a big difference. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/maas-metal-polish-maas-metal-protector-chrome-polish.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/maas-metal-polish-maas-metal-protector-chrome-polish.cfm Wed, 02 Apr 2008 02:04:26 MST While on a magnificent journey to anywhere on your motorcycle have you ever worried about the security of your pride and joy? The answer is: yes of course! Perhaps your journey takes you through a major metropolitan area in California, Florida, Texas, North Carolina, Ohio, Arizona, New York, Indiana, Georgia, and/or Pennsylvania. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-accessories/lojack-stolen-motorcycle-recovery-system.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-accessories/lojack-stolen-motorcycle-recovery-system.cfm Fri, 21 Mar 2008 04:03:41 MST The WHEELDOCK is a transport system designed to transport your motorcycle on a trailer or truck in a safe and secure manner that will assure, upon arrival at your destination, that your motorcycle will be as ready to ride as you are. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/motorcycle-wheel-dock.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/motorcycle-wheel-dock.cfm Sat, 15 Mar 2008 08:03:23 MST If you are like us, there is never enough room on an extended trip to carry everything you need; even on a larger model motorcycle. We consider ourselves pretty bare-bone travelers, but the fact is, rain gear, leathers, and cold weather clothing take up a lot of room. Add to that, an extra pair of jeans, shirts, undies, socks, and toiletries, and even the largest motorcycle bags and trunk begin to look inadequate. Complicate things further by riding two up and space becomes even more critical. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/kuryakyn-motorcycle-grantraveler-bag.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/kuryakyn-motorcycle-grantraveler-bag.cfm Thu, 06 Mar 2008 03:03:04 MST Rarely, has our staff concluded that a particular accessory is a must have for everyone. However, Freedom-Wings adjustable fairing vent system are a must have for everyone owning a fairing mounted Harley-Davidson model motorcycle. Regardless of environmental conditions, rotating the Freedom Wings changes the direction of air flow, and has the effect of cooling a hot engine while cooling the rider and passenger, making your ride much more enjoyable. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-accessories/motorcycle-harley-davidson-fairing-vent-system http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-accessories/motorcycle-harley-davidson-fairing-vent-system Fri, 08 Feb 2008 12:02:25 MST There are three important questions when considering a motorcycle lift. Will my bike be stable up on the lift? Can I work on my bike with out worrying about it falling due to weight shift or some other factor? Is the lift designed to interface with my motorcycle in way that will not damage any part of the motorcycle? The Pit Bull Motorcycle Lift provides a very favorable response to each of these questions. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/pit-bull-motorcycle-lift-cruiser-touring-manual-model http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/pit-bull-motorcycle-lift-cruiser-touring-manual-model Wed, 06 Feb 2008 10:02:54 MST If you need a motorcycle Detail + Wax that you can count on, consider S100. I did and I am convinced that S100 is the right choice! Excellent care for cooler days and fewer rides. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/s100-detail-and-wax.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/s100-detail-and-wax.cfm Wed, 06 Feb 2008 10:02:44 MST This Tour Trunk is made to go the distance. The design and manufacturing process takes into consideration the hard use that a motorcycle trunk will absorb due to rain, wind, sunlight, and dirt. Also, as you can see, the tour trunk looks good. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/willie-and-max-thunder-studded-tour-trunk http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/willie-and-max-thunder-studded-tour-trunk Wed, 06 Feb 2008 10:02:19 MST The BOM is a one step method of cleaning and shining you motorcycle.

At first glance, the boot appears inflexible and heavy. One might wonder about suitability for extended wear. Will it be hot and exhausting to wear around at an all day rally or at other extended motorcycle related activities? After a closer look, any initial skepticism soon gives way to a feeling of confidence in style, materials and craftsmanship. When you wear the boot, any misgivings dissipate due to the extraordinary comfort. The boot seems to form to your foot and it is comfortable whether riding, walking, or standing. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-gear/motorcycle-boots-redwing.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-gear/motorcycle-boots-redwing.cfm Fri, 01 Feb 2008 05:02:51 MST The Air Force Blaster is designed to 'blast' water off your motorcycle, and it will do just that! The Air Force comes in a package that provides the right amount of protection from possible damage while being shipped. It is fully assembled and ready to operate with one exception. You will need to attach the 10-foot hose to the steel tube protruding from the front-end cap of the Blaster. Plug it in, turn it on and dry your motorcycle. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/motorcycle-air-dryer.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-maintenance/motorcycle-air-dryer.cfm Fri, 01 Feb 2008 05:02:00 MST Cycle Matters staff chose a Pace American Legacy motorcycle trailer as its official trailer because of the appearance, construction, and the commitment to quality products made by Pace American and its employees. http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/pace-american-legacy-motorcycle-trailer.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/storage-transport/pace-american-legacy-motorcycle-trailer.cfm Thu, 31 Jan 2008 10:01:02 MST If you are looking for functionality and convenience in a tool kit, try CruzTOOL Kits.

It is 8:00 a.m. on a beautiful twenty-eight degree Colorado day. A quick check confirms the sun has melted the snow from the roads, and it is safe to ride the Santa Sleigh Run today. It seems like a great day to try out my new Gerbing Heated Motorcycle Jacket Liner and Heated Gloves (see Gerbing's heated Gloves product review). http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-gear/gerbings-heated-jacket-liner.cfm http://www.cyclematters.com/motorcycle-product-reviews/motorcycle-gear/gerbings-heated-jacket-liner.cfm Fri, 18 Jan 2008 03:01:30 MST A motorcycle jack is an essential tool for motorcyclists. It will raise the bike to a height that facilitates cleaning and detailing, closer examination of mechanics on the underside and lower sides of your motorcycle and performance of various mechanical and maintenance procedures. When you raise your favorite ride 15 inches off the floor, you want the assurance that it will stay there.
