Under Amour vs. Walmart Motorcycle Wicking Underwear Under Armour is tight flexible wicking underwear claimed to be “the leader in heat dispersion – keeping you cooler and more comfortable than the competition.” It’s expensive and it’s hard for me to tell if it works as claimed.

A simple modification allows the use of prescription eyeglasses with full-face motorcycle helmets. This is an article that I am hesitant to post, because it seems like such a simple idea — surely others have thought of it too? Then again, maybe not… I’ve been meaning to write about this...

MOMO “Komposit” Carbon Fiber Motorcycle Helmet There was a time not too long ago when the terms “industrial design” and “consumer products” weren’t used in the same sentence.
