Shoei RF-1200 Helmet Mods
The Transitions lens is must have for those who ride at night and into the mornings. The self darkening lens helps with that blinding sunglare. If you are looking a great comm/camera setup check out the Sena 10c Evo. The camera is high quality, the mic is clear, and the speakers are loud enough to fight the wind noise.
2022 Yamaha MT-07
I bought this bike of the showroom floor. The bike super comfy, powerful, and sturdy. It gives you the confidence needed to carve up the roads.
What are they saying about this bike:
"The MT-07 is a staple in the Yamaha lineup, and in its own way, has become a highly influential motorcycle. Parallel twin with 270-degree cranks are all the rage these days, and the MT-07 was one of the first to popularize the configuration. Approachable, affordable, and fun, the MT-07 taps into the universal virtues of motorcycling."
The bike that started it all!
Segway X160 I bought this to ride the trails and found the itch to go a little bigger and faster. This started my journey of 2 wheel fun!
Hawk 250 My first motorcycle!
This is the first motorcycle I have ever ridden. It's an inexpensive 250cc motorcycle shipped to you in a box. I had assemble most of parts which isn't a bad thing. It forces you to learn the basics, and I feel this was very helpful in the long run.

Almost there!
Hawk fully assembled minus fender
It was a good first bike however!
We need more power
KTM Duke 390
The Hawk was a good bike, learning how to use the throttle, clutch and bang through the gears. I needed more power for the roads, so my next bike was the KTM Duke 390. This was a huge upgrade, it was 140 more CC's and was noticeable. The bike was able to keep up with the traffic, but was a little on the light side for the highway. I kept it for a couple months and moved on to the 2022 Yamaha MT07.
First Time Rider?
Riding a motorcycle can be an exciting and enjoyable experience, but it's important to take the time to learn how to do it safely. Here are some general steps you can follow:
Get a motorcycle learner's permit: Before you can legally ride a motorcycle, you will need to get a learner's permit. This will require passing a written test on traffic laws and safe riding practices.
Familiarize yourself with the motorcycle: Make sure you know how to operate the various controls on the motorcycle, including the brakes, throttle, clutch, gears, and lights. Familiarize yourself with the specific model you will be riding.
Wear appropriate gear: Always wear a DOT-approved helmet to protect your head, as well as sturdy boots, gloves, and clothing that covers your arms and legs.
Mount the motorcycle: To mount the motorcycle, stand on the left side of the bike with the kickstand up. Swing your right leg over the seat and sit down, keeping your feet on the ground.
Start the engine: Insert the key and turn the ignition switch to the "on" position. Press the starter button or kick-start the engine.
Shift gears: To shift gears, squeeze the clutch lever on the left handlebar, and use your left foot to shift the gear lever into the desired gear. Release the clutch slowly as you give the motorcycle some gas.
Practice riding in a safe, open area: Start by practicing in a parking lot or other safe, open area where you can get comfortable with the motorcycle's controls and how it handles. Practice starting, stopping, turning, and shifting gears.
Observe traffic laws and ride defensively: Always obey traffic laws and be aware of other drivers on the road. Ride defensively, keep a safe distance from other vehicles, and always be prepared to react to sudden changes in traffic.
Remember, riding a motorcycle safely requires practice, patience, and focus. Be sure to take a motorcycle safety course to learn the best practices and techniques for safe riding.
Be SAFE out there, use the gear!
