    Mesh jackets??

    Hi Trikepilot, I wear a medium Badlands and for me the fit is just right around the chest but a little long in the sleeves and this is similar with the Induction jacket. I'm 5'6" and chest around 39" for reference. The big difference I noticed right off the bat was the Induction virtually...

    Mesh jackets??

    Just ordered the Klim Induction. I like my Badlands as long as i'm moving, but for commuting in slow traffic I really cook in them especially the left side when the fans goes. Sent from my RM-877_nam_canada_234 using Tapatalk

    Riding across Canadia...recommendations and weather in May

    I would agree with REM on the weather, I remember when I was doing fieldwork around Pincher Creek, Alberta (back in 1994) in mid June and it started to snow, especially around the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. But then again the snow never sticks around - just wait for the Chinook winds...

    S10 too tall for me?

    Hi Charley! I'm 5'6" with 30" inseam and found the bike fine with one foot down flat with the standard seat in low position. Like you I was wondering if it was too tall but got to test ride one last week. It didn't take long to get comfortable with the bike with stop and go traffic, and...

    Hello Gentlemen from Sunny BC!

    Howdy all - just can't keep my excitement to myself so here's my first post! Wow, I can't believe it! I had the pleasure of test riding a black Super Tenere just a few hours ago! What a difference from my Suzuki DRZ400, but then again that's not fair to compare since they are in different...
