Motorcycle Transport

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007

I did some research on transporting and came up with a few sites (among many): haulbikes.com, uship.com and motorcycleshippers.com.

uship has a unique approach where you basically put your delivery out to bid. when i tried to register a bike the registration failed but i like the concept.

For my delivery both haulbikes and motorcycleshippers basically had the same price, $585 and $573, respectively.

MotorCycleShippers
MotorcycleShippers has the ability to crate your bike and has online tracking plus they had the lowest price so thats who i think im going to use.

Bridgestone introduced three new motorcycle tires

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

February 17, 2007 (Indianapolis, Indiana) - Bridgestone introduced three new motorcycle tires today at the 2007 Powersports Dealer Expo. The Bridgestone Battlax BT-021 Sport-Touring Radial, the Bridgestone Battlax BT-002 RS Supersport Radial and the BattleWing BW-501 (Front) and BW-502 (Rear) Adventure Sport tires.

New Bridgestone Battlax BT-002 Racing Street Tire Is Z-Rated Ultra-high Performance Radial Designed for Street, Track

Nashville, Tenn. (Feb. 17, 2007) – Bridgestone Firestone North American Tires is pleased to introduce the new Bridgestone Battlax BT-002 Racing Street, an aggressive Z-speed rated sport tire that performs equally well for aggressive sport riding or track-days. On or off the track, the BT-002 RS demonstrates a balance of stability, cornering, handling, grip, anti-shimmy and shock absorption needed to perform at maximum potential.

Developed from technology gleaned from years of successful MotoGP testing and race participation, the BT-002 RS offers exceptional front-end contact feel and cornering performance. Designed by Bridgestone Corporation to be the ultimate sport bike tire, the front tire was developed with Dual Tread Construction (DTC) – with a medium center compound and soft shoulder compound to ensure high grip, light steering and impressive feedback. Utilizing Bridgestone’s proprietary construction, compounds and patterns, including a newly designed fine cord breaker underneath a mono-spiral belt, the front tire ensures flexibility without sacrificing stability. The rear BT-002 is specifically designed to gain traction.

Designed much like the front tire, the rear tire is also manufactured with a High Tensile Super Penetrated Cord (HTSPC) mono-spiral belt. In addition, the silica rich compound enhances high grip in all conditions and low temperatures, ensuring excellent handling from the moment the motorcycle starts off.

“This introduction has been one of the more exciting developments since our continued experience in MotoGP is now having a direct impact on tires at the dealership level. In just a few short years, we’ve accomplished great strides in this highly competitive arena. Our participation is paying off with tires that can handle the most aggressive conditions,” says Bob Graham, Manager of Motorcycle and Kart Products, BFNT.

The Battlax BT-002 Racing Street is now available in four popular sizes 120/70ZR17, 180/55ZR17, 190/50ZR17 and 190/55ZR17 at dealers nationwide. For more information, please visit www.motorcycle-karttires.com.
