The most important accessory for your sports bikeWritten by Granny's Mettle
When it comes to accessorizing, riders and owners of motorcycles, particularly those that are new in this field, often spend their money in increasing engine performance. Oftentimes, they put their entire budget on performance motorcycle parts accessories like exhausts, fuel injection, mapping systems, and other components to help boost motorcycle's engine.But once they experience track riding, illusion of power as most important component to gain speed fades fast. In fact, too much of it without taking into consideration other factors may just make your motorcycle more than you can handle. Many have experienced that it could actually make one slower than others with less powerful bikes. So what performance motorcycle parts accessories should you invest in? Here are some suggestions of expert riders of motorcycles: •Suspension Lance Keigwin of Star Motorcycle School and Hare Racing, suggests that riders should take full note of suspension. This is one component that can increase speed in motorcycles, according to Keigwin. Unfortunately, most riders often overlook this factor. He further explained that some of stock bikes today may perform under regular conditions; however, when pushed beyond average riding situations, their performance becomes questionable. "I do not suggest, however, that you spend a fortune in full suspension components; instead, I suggest you work with your stock suspension and use components that may improve stock equipment like gold valve emulators," Keigwin added.

Do you think maybe it's time to do a little customizing for that old girl of yours? Ask yourself this first. Why do we customize and add accessories to our Harley? Well, for me it's simple! We want to stand out above all else! The last thing we want is to look like every Tom, Dick, and Harry out there on road! You may have different reasons. You may want to add an Accessory to your bike because it fits with you and your taste. There is an element of being practical as well. If you install a nice chrome luggage rack on your back fender, or a detachable windshield, it not only looks good but it also serves a purpose. How else would you carry your tent and keep bugs out of your teeth? Not everyone has same taste in customizing. Thank God for that, or it sure would be boring taking a walk down on main street in Sturgis South Dakota during 1st week of August. Some people go overboard on customizing their bike. Overboard for someone may be a masterpiece for someone else. It all depends on who you are and what you're about. How do you pick out a Harley Davidson Accessory or decide on customizing? It's a hard question to answer. I would suggest that you decide on what you want out of your bike. Sit back and have a look at yourself. What kind of biker are you anyway?
