Recommended Products?

How about a section where we can discuss recommended products related to motorcycling?

Somewhere we can recommend tools, or tricks for maintenance, etc.

For instance:

When you can buy the tires on the internet for cheap, and mount and balance them yourself in your garage, then it pays for itself in no time. If you get together with a few buddies and chip in on it, it pays for itself even faster.

I highly recommend it, especially if you have a couple riding buddies willing to chip in.

RJ - so far it's fallen on deaf ears. Everyone too busy gearing up for KC.

In this same vein, I wish I could get other people's experience on replacing handle bars to decide what I need. My '05 LowRider w/ fwd controls doesn't fit me just right, I know I need to either sit closer or have the bars closer, I think I'd prefer to move the bars, but I feel like I'm just guessing at the right fit, and hate to spend money and trouble to see if the fit is right. Feels like an expensive (w/cables) parts crapshoot.

Wish there was a simulator.

Some dealers have this jig where you can try out seat and handlebar combos. Check around.
