Antigravity Micro Start Power Supply Review at RevZilla.com
Nice addition to your kit. After my last trip many recommended I get something like this as I needed to get a jump numerous times. This is an awesome idea to maintain your independence. I have the XP 1, hopefully will only need it to charge my phone and not jump my bike. Part of my car kit and bike kit from now on. 😉

Incredibly easy to use and highly efficient, the Antigravity Micro Start Power Supply is a great tool for any gear closet. Coming in a variety of sizes, powers, and prices, Antigravity has really come in on top of their game with this one and offered up a hugely beneficial accessory that can be utilized in a variety of situations. Look, we all go hard and push our electronic devices along with us, sometimes it helps to have a little mobile jolt to kickstart things back into good working order so that we can be on our way.

Quick breakdown of ADV Boots for 2015
March 16th 2015
I own the TCX Desert boot and the Alpinestars Toucan. Older models and both Gore Tex. TCX runs narrower than the AP. If you order TCX boots I would go up a size and I would recommend both these boots for the price. 100% H20 proof but if you have wider feet the AP Toucan and the Sidi will work better for your fitment.

KLIM Altitude Pants Review
I initially reviewed this new KLIM suit when I first got it back in April. Now that I have well over 8000 KM’s in it or 5000 miles I have some more impressions.

2014 BMW F800GS ADVenture
I was at my dealer the other day and speaking with Sheldon, the informative and more than a sales guy we buy our ADV bikes from…and he was telling more about his father who bought the F800 ADV model. Sheldon tells me and I have heard this from other owners, that the ADV F8 is certainly worth the extra coin. If Cheryl and I were going to buy again, and if this version was out we would have bought it over the standard GS. Why? The extra’s BMW have added to this bike as well as the larger tank seem to actually work…such as the almost upright touring shield. I hear that it actually works for many riders of all sizes and has a great mounting location for your GPS. Continue reading “2014 BMW F800GS ADVenture”

First UK ride: Suzuki V-Strom 1000 review
Thanks George as always for sending me this link…interesting review, seems pretty honest to me.
Suzuki’s new adventure-tourer is good but feels more the product of sales strategy than any desire to outclass the competition

Amazing Bonneville Review
2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS – First Ride
I think this bike will be a hit and find its way into the ADV market place. Just seems like a whole lot of bike for the price and will make to non hard-core off-road rider very happy. Perhaps just a great overall everyday ADV bike 😉
The adventure doesn’t really begin, they say, until something goes wrong. When we combine adventure bikes with guys that have seen too many BMW commercials, this inevitably entails picking adventure bikes back up from the dusty trail (or in my case, having them extracted by helicopter). Suddenly, it’s very clear why weight matters. Continue reading “2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS – First Ride”

Soon Our 1 YEAR Review of our 2013 BMW F800GS Bikes
We have owned our new now old bikes for 1 year. I will soon post a review of our bikes now that we both have over 8000 KM’s on them, been off-road, taken decent length trips to assess its road competency and also here I will post an issue we have run into regarding the OEM canbus/socket plug.
In our review I will try to compare as much as I can the F800 to the Triumph Tiger 800XC that we rode for only 44 days to Alaska and they gave them back to Triumph Canada in 2011 and our 2010 BMW F650GS bikes too.
