112: New Rider Series and Spyder Sadness
Manage episode 195131871 series 86819
This week kicks off with an announcement of our new rider series. At least four episodes dedicated to helping new and returning riders get into motorcycling. Jon is pulled into the conversation on his Spyder so that we can all get a proper update on all the sadness.
NEW RIDER SERIES
We are starting a mini-series, that eventually will be put together as a reference episode. The idea is, let’s do our part for the motorcycle community and help to foster new riders
Four part series covering the following major topics:
- Get some training
- Monday 1/8/2018 we will record this episode with a former motorcycle safety instructor
- Get some gear
- Let’s cover the basics of what a new rider should get
- Where to spend your money
- Gear that you don’t ne ed
- Get a bike
- Look at bikes suited for a learning rider
- New models available
- Good used bike choices
- Scooters (can start without having a license)
- Dirt riding (Rich feels one of the best ways to understand and practice bike control)
- Find your community (although we could argue this should be first)
- Reach out to various social media outlets that interest you
- Facebook, EatSleepRide, Moto-Amino, podcasts, and more
- Local events, local dealers, club, industry, trade shows, etc

SPEND MY MONEY
Slacker needs a new exhaust for his Kawasaki Vulcan S, we listen to five different makes and give our suggestions
1. Scorpion Custom Exhaust (audio sample from: Kee Lin Lee)
2. Arrow Rebel (audio sample from: SpeedMob)
Same pipe on the dyno (audio sample from: Motorsport Landskrona AB)

4. Delkevic - (audio sample: Amit Dadlaney)
$369 - 450 depending on type
5. Danmoto Highwayman 2-1 Full Exhaust Kawasaki Vulcan S
- 350 or so as far as I can tell.
