Harley-Davidson Edge Cut Saddlebag Latch Kit | Motorcycle Black Chrome Replacement Cover 90200421

Andy — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 20:41:56 +0000

Let's say, hypothetically, that you're the type of person that really likes to keep adding accessories on your bike. Heck, that's why you keep coming back to look at reviews about accessories that you might be somewhat interested in right? What if you ran out of items to install on your rig, but still needed your accessory fix? That's when you start accessorising your accessories. Think of it as bedazzling your stuff, but not in a dumb or cheap way. The best way to go about this kind of self medication is to add a bit of chrome to something un-chromed, like something that's plain ol' black leather.

We'll start by adding some chrome to your plain-Jane saddle bags with the Harley-Davidson Edge Cut Collection Saddlebag Latch Kit. These guys are made out of a rich black anodized aluminum that is machined to expose its rich highlights. These covers replace the original latch covers, but retain the stock hinges and locks to make installation easy. This kit includes enough goodies to do both the left and right sides. These will work on all 1993 and later models equipped with factory bags. Harley-Davidson may one day add an accessory on to this accessory for an accessory, so keep your eyes out.

Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Cover, Touring | Elastic Fit w/ Waterproof Windshield Liner

Andy — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 20:01:39 +0000

There are motorcycle covers, and then there are motorcycle covers. What's the difference, you ask? Well, I've seen "covers" that are made from a 10-year-old bed sheet. Not really going to protect that investment of yours, right? Another common "cover" is the good ol' 10'x10' blue tarp. Sure, it'll keep the rain from hitting your paint, but throw it over a hot exhaust and you'll melt that plastic like a glob of butter in a frying pan. If you're going to put the money into a nice motorcycle, you should put a little into the cover designed to protect it correctly.

That's where this Harley-Davidson motorcycle cover comes in. It's specifically designed to fit all touring models (except for the trike) and features a protective windshield liner as well as a securing strap. It also has elastic edges to help get a snug fit, and even a convenient storage pouch. It's made out of 300 denier fade-resistant polyester and has urethane-coated material as well as double-stitched seams to provide excellent waterproofing. Along with the exhaust heat shields, this cover is vented to keep weird stuff from incubating under the cover. It's not as cheap as a tarp, but it will look a lot nicer and do a better job.

Harley-Davidson LED Penlight | Motorcycle Laser Pointer Pen 12700025

Andy — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 20:03:30 +0000

You know what kind of inventions are the ones that make life easier? The ones that combine necessities together to make life easier. Take the beer bottle opener/key chain for example. The key chain keeps all of your keys in one place, and the beer bottle opener makes it so you don't have to injure yourself trying to open that container of sweet, delicious beer. There are thousands of these types of inventions, but lately I've been into this little gadget from the one and only Harley-Davidson.

It's an LED penlight, but it's got a little bit of a twist (literally). It comes with a flexible and removable fiber optic pointer that lets you focus the bright LED light into hard-to-get-at areas. This is perfect when you're trying to see that mysterious bolt that you can't quite see with a standard flash light. The penlight itself produces over 15 lumens of clean blue/white light that's about the equivalent of a 95 watt bulb (I looked it up!). The Harley-Davidson Penlight is powered by just two AA batteries and will last up to 10 hours continuously, and if used properly, the LED bulbs will last forever. Not a bad idea for a gift if you've got a mechanic in the house, or want to send one to your favorite review writer. *Wink*

Harley-Davidson Hitch Plug | Aluminum Orange & Black Shield Logo by PlastiColor

Andy — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 20:31:01 +0000

Where I come from, there's almost a mandatory law that states that if you don't have stickers or other accessories on your truck or car that states exactly what your political views are, or the brands of vehicles you enjoy, it's weird -- because if you don't have a bumper sticker or window decal of some sort, you stand out like a sore thumb. The good thing about it, though, is it makes it extremely easy to see with whom you might get along with as you stumble into a watering hole for a quick drink. It's safe to say there's going to be someone inside that has some good riding stories if they have a Harley-Davidson Full-Color Aluminum Hitch Plug in the back of their rig.

The PlastiColor Hitch Plug is officially licensed from Harley, and if you're not planning on towing anything for a while, it will look a lot better than just a hole back there. It's made out of solid metal, so you can count on it for years to come. It will fit both 11/4" and 2" receiver stems, and you can use your locking pin to keep it securely in place. If you need a way to show off your love for Harleys, this will surely help.

Harley Davidson Skull Flames License Plate Frame | Chrome Brass Engraved, UV Epoxy Protected

Andy — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 20:13:08 +0000

"Now, Franklin, why don't you tell me where your fixation on license plate frames came from?"

"Well, to be honest, Doc, I don't really know. I mean... my Pops always used to switch out the ol' plate frame on the family Bonneville. Ya know, one month we'd have one that said ‘I'd rather be fishing,' and the next month he'd stick one on that said ‘If you can read this, YOU'RE TOO CLOSE,' so I think maybe I kinda got it from him."

"Hmmm... Very interesting, Franklin. I think I know where the problem stems from. You seem to need that routine change, and yet you've admitted that you'll never change out the Chrome Car License Plate Frame from Harley-Davidson. Why?"

"Doc, you just don't understand. It's computer engraved and then filled with UV stable epoxy enamel to keep it looking brand new. The solid brass frame is chrome plated and highly polished to keep it shiny forever. It even comes with chrome caps to fill the screw holes so you can't tell how it's mounted. Plus, my love for Harley doesn't change, so why should my license plate frame?"

"Well Franklin, I can see where you're coming from, but I'm still going to have to give you a prescription for mental instability. Please see the nurse on your way out."

T-Bags Motorcycle Windshield Bag for Harley-Davidson Electra Glide | Waterproof Black PVC TB3200WBP

Andy — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 20:10:18 +0000

Before all this GPS being able to get mounted to the handle bar nonsense, the only way I had a map of where I was riding to was by taping a MapQuest printout to the inside of my windshield and hoping that it would stay put. Actually, now that I think about it, I used that area in front of the windshield to haphazardly store many items in which I hoped wouldn't disappear because of a bump in the road or a sharp turn. Well, the unfortunately named T-Bags designed a windshield bag that makes the best out of that extra space.

There are three streamlined pockets that can fit various small items, such as your cell phone or iPod, as well as house keys or even a little bit of spare change. The whole thing is made out of tough embossed PVC, which is waterproof and has been treated with UV inhibitors for protection from fading due to the sun. Installation just takes a couple of minutes, and this windshield bag will fit on all 2003-2009 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Classic/Standard/Ultra models. Best of all, this windshield bag doesn't look disgusting when it's hooked up, and you probably won't even notice it from the front.

Harley-Davidson Spirited Women’s Jacket | 3 In 1 Motorcycle Hooded Vest Liner 98222-10VW

Andy — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 20:21:39 +0000

The evolution of motorcycle apparel has been an interesting thing to witness, especially as I'm just a casual observer. In the past, the only items for safety that were usually made were made for men, because it was something like 1% of the riders out there were women, so not really a market that a business owner would want to invest in. Now, that number is jumping towards 20% of riders are women who own their bikes, so it's becoming a good thing that Harley and other companies are looking more at clothing designed for women.

The Women's Harley-Davidson Spirited 3-in-1 Functional Jacket is 100% waterproof polyester and contains a 100% cotton hooded vest that is removable and can be worn separately if desired. There's not a lot of stuff that's less than 100% on this jacket, as Harley-Davidson tends to go all the way. For the summer days, there's front sleeve vents and two vertical vents in the back that help circulate air through the jacket to keep you cool. The armor that's in the elbows, shoulders, and back are all removable for easy washing, and with all the pockets you could ever need, there shouldn't be a reason why you didn't bring your ID to the dance club.

Harley-Davidson King Backrest Pad for Touring Motorcycle | Smooth Tour Pak Luggage, Black 52892-98A

Andy — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 20:08:17 +0000

One of the most bizarre things that I ever saw riding down the freeway was pulling up past a couple on a big touring Harley-Davison and seeing the woman on the back asleep. Not only was I dumbfounded that someone could feel comfortable enough on a bike to catch some zzz's , but I noticed that the pad that she was in was basically like an oversized car seat. It was the first time I saw something like the Harley-Davidson King Tour-Pak Backrest Pad, and I'm not quite sure if I'd feel safe knowing my passenger was cutting logs behind me.

Recuperating on lost sleep isn't what Harley-Davidson had in mind when they made this, but I think it does hold a testament to the comfort it gives. It's designed to fit almost all '97 to current Touring models already equipped with the King Tour-Pak Luggage, so it's not a stand-alone backrest. You have to have the luggage already installed. It comes with everything you need to mount the pad, though. It seems like it might take away some of that instinct you might have to hold on for dear life, though, but will surely make your passenger of choice more comfortable if they decide to accompany you on a long trip.

Willie & Max Black Magic Saddlebags | Harley-Davidson Eagle Saddle Bag, Slant Compact Waterproof

Andy — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 20:00:02 +0000

No saddle bag is created equal to another. With all the different sizes and materials out there, it can be hard to find the pair that will compliment your bike as well as have all the room you need. These Willie and Max Black Magic Compact Slant Saddlebags are designed to fit over or under most motorcycle seats. These feature zip-off yokes and removable handles for easy storage when you're not using them. The quick release buckles make it easy to take them off when you come in the house, too. They're made out of synthetic leather here in the USA, which is good if you're a PETA member, and because of the heavy grained material, these seem to last for a good while. The material is PVC-coated to keep them waterproof, and they have a UV inhibitor to keep them from fading. They're also flame retardant and have anti-microbial properties to keep mold and mildew from growing inside. These bags have a really nice three-strand braid design that follows the contours of the bag and the gives it more depth. The Willie and Max silver and gold eagle is easily recognizable and even compliments the Harley-Davidson logo. The best part is that the Black Magic bags wipe clean with just a damp cloth, and you never have to use leather creams or oils on them to keep them from cracking.

Harley-Davidson Women’s Hybrid Half Helmet | Ultra Light Removable Visor & Neck Curtain, Anti-Microbial Lining

Andy — Sat, 03 Sep 2011 20:39:23 +0000

"It's not so much of a problem having to deal with helmet hair as it is trying to deal with not being able to ride my bike because of the weather." This was told to me by a seasoned woman rider who I noticed pulling off a Harley-Davidson half helmet after pulling up to a café. I told her that her hair didn't look too bad and she shouldn't worry. She told me, "Look, hun, when you get to my age, there's only two things I look forward to: riding and making whoopie." She then laughed as I probably looked a little taken aback, but I managed to ask her if she liked her helmet without being too uncomfortable. She said something along the lines of, "it's light and it works." So, I thought I should look into it more.

The Harley-Davidson Women's Hybrid Ultra-Light Half Helmet is made out of a super strong hybrid fiberglass and aramid shell. This makes it about 17% lighter than traditional fiberglass shells, but just as strong. The sleek design is complimented with the puffy Harley-Davidson graphics that give it a unique 3-D look. It has a traditional double D-ring chin strap, and the inner lining is soft and removable. The lining is also moisture wicking and anti-microbial to keep anything from growing in there. The visor and neck curtain are also removable in case it's too hot, or you want to throw a 3-snap face shield on. Of course, this half shell also meets DOT requirements. It's available in women's sizing from XS all the way up to 2XL.
