I've had the Acerbis Rally Pros for a year, and they've taken plenty of solid hits with no problems. The white color yellowed significantly, but that doesn't bother me and they've been great in every...

Hah, that's wild. I've had an '08 XT250 since January ("the wife's") and am back to plotting on what bike to get for me so that we can both go off-road. In the reading I've been doing off and on for...

It's not a marketing ploy, it's a combination. The dualsport and on-road rallies used to be held at separate times, but as they all grew it was easier to have them on the same days. However, there...

Great boot, infuriating buckle.
After a few months, I'm happy to report that the boots broke in nicely, and are very comfortable now. It took 2-3 weeks. The waterproofing is great, they're comfortable, and they feel solid. I was...

Any comments on how these boots break in width-wise?
Unfortunately I'm in between sizes, with the 10 fitting my left foot and the 11 fitting my right foot. The 10s squeeze my right pinkie toe,...

XT250: First valve adjustment - in spec!

Just be careful doing that kind of thing, those tires aren't designed for the temperatures of high-speed dry riding. You may not ride hard enough on the street to get them greasy, but I wouldn't go...
