So two weeks ago last Wednesday I decided to go riding at Barona Oaks Mx complex. Lets just say it didn’t end the way I would have liked it to. I attempted key word here being attempted to clear a 70ft downhill double that they just put in. Unfortunately this was only my second ride with my new boots. The first ride was out at Corral Canyon with one of my buddies, our new R&D manager and his twin brother. Which I ended up getting a speeding ticket on the way there in the company truck I might add. I am starting to think I need to burn these boots because they are bad luck. Anyway back to the jump, I miss shifted and hit 3 3/4 and the bike dropped back down to 3rd gear just before the face of the jump. Because of this I lost all my drive which caused me to land a bit short.  This is what happens when you land short on a 70ft downhill double.

Well I finally got a truck again. The whole car thing was just not working out for me. I tried and it lasted about 6 months then I was going through major truck withdrawals. After countless hours of searching I finally found someone who was willing to trade a Tacoma for my 03 VW Golf. I picked the truck up about two months ago and absolutely loving every second of it.

Hey 06-07 YZ450 riders – just a quick post about our ESL387, which is an excellent replacement lighting upgrade stator for the 06-07 Yamaha YZ450F’s.  We set one up in customer Jansen’s bike (06 YZ450F Special Edition!), and headed out to the local track to do some testing.

You can’t get any better test conditions than ripping around the track all day in 90degree weather.
After a full day of riding, we were tired, and Jansen’s YZ was running excellent and firing up on the first kick every time.

So if you’re looking to run some lights on your 06-07 Yamaha YZ450, or your stock stator took a dive and you need to get back in the game, head over the Electrosport store (click here!) and grab an ESL387!

For the past week our fearless operations manager Laura Garcia has been in Cologne, Germany at the annual Intermot motorcycle and scooter show. I know…     Its a rough job, but lucky for us Laura is a real trooper! The Intermot show this year housed over 1,100 exhibitors from all over the globe, and had some really great entertainment in the form of supermoto racing as well as freestyle motocross exhibitions.

Here’s a quick video of me on the way to the office…

Not really… I’ve got the good sense to NEVER run the camera when I am hustling to the office… No incriminating evidence :-)

Check out this riding enthusiast as he routinely introduces his front tire to the sky at 300 KPH as indicated by our Acewell 3900 Series Speedometer mounted on his turbocharged GSXR 1100.

If your riding style tends to lean towards the sporting end of things and you’ve come to the realization that your stock instrument cluster just can’t cut it… I’ve got the solution to your troubles. ElectroSport is North America’s Distributor for the entire line of Acewell motorsports speedometer computers… and I know one of them is sure to match your riding style perfectly.

Here’s a link to the model seen in the video: Acewell 3900 Series Speedometer.

PS… Please don’t ride like this on open roads… That’s what track days are for.

Ride Safe (and OFTEN!)

We’ve all been there…stranded miles from civilization with a motorcycle that won’t start as a result of a weak OEM ignition.

That sick feeling begins to sink in as you realize that you will have to either push your beloved scoot to the nearest town. Or worse… leave it on the side of the road and pray that nobody “buzzard picks” it while you are trying to get help.

OEM Leave you dead?
