Nihilo Concepts Factory Frame Grip Tape
nihilo frame tape
The Good
looks great easy application
The Bad
doesn't last long
Overall Review
we bought some for our brand new 15 ktm and it works great butdidn't last long. if your looking for something that lasts longer i would suggest real frame guards like the plastic ones they sell because it will last longer for the average guy. ours lasted about 2 hrs. this would be a great product for the professional racer if you got it in bulk and it was replaced after every weekend .these guys have many other great products we use

Overall Review
Review and Photos by Michael Lindsay Wandering the pro pits is always interesting, especially when you spot the small tricks that the factory mechanics do to their rider's bikes. One thing that's quite common, is to find grip tape along spars of the frame. Some riders love the extra traction that can be found by doing this. But it can be a bit of a pain to replicate, since cutting out the perfect-sized piece of grip tape is time consuming and takes practice, even with a good template. Now there

Troy Lee Designs 5955 Chest Protector
Overall Review
Review by Michael Lindsay // Photos by Joe Carlino At one point or another, we've all questioned how much protection we need to wear while riding. Weight and comfort is an issue, as is the ability to keep cool... or maybe look cool. Personally, I've been all over the map when it comes to chest protection. I grew up wearing a chest protector until I was almost 18. Then went without it, before realizing that the roost hurts, so I grabbed an under-the-jersey foam pad to eliminate the pain. I then

No Toil Biodegradable Chain Lube with Wax
Overall Review
Review by Michael Lindsay // Photos by Michael Lindsay and Joe Carlino In my personal experience at local tracks and races, I noticed that most people under-rate the use of chain lube. Most riders tend to just give the chain a small spray before they ride in the morning, sometimes just in their garage and not even at the track. Once this is done, they tend to forget about their can of chain lube and just ride moto after moto without giving it another thought. When I ask my friends of this habit

FMF Racing S/S Aluminum Factory 4.1 RCT With Carbon Cap And MegaBomb Header - 2014 Honda CRF250R
Overall Review
Review by Joey and Rupert Pellett // Photos by Rupert Pellett Testing FMF's single-sided Aluminum Factory 4.1 RCT w/ Carbon Cap and Megabomb head pipe (say that five times fast) on a pristine 2014 Honda CRF250R is a chore... well, only if you're a twin-pipe lover. If you're not, then its simpler construction and cheaper price is a God-send. FMFAluminum/Stainless Single-sided System w/ MegaBomb Features: Available with Aluminum or Carbon Fiber End Cap. Single-sided system includes thinner UFO
No Toil Air Box Cover
The Good
The cover protects the air intake from the majority of the water being sprayed into the air box while washing.
The Bad
The rubber seal has a gap allowing some water to enter the air intake.
Overall Review
I purchased the No Toil cover based on price and have been reasonably happy with the performance. The rubber seal, that presses against the air box, is nothing more than a piece of rubber tubing that has been split down the middle and slipped onto the cover. This sealing surface works well except the piece of hose was cut too short and leaves a gap for small amounts water to enter into the intake. Since I do not ride by bike immediately after washing I can wipe down the intake and let everything

DT1 Filters Dual Layer Air Filter
The Good
Does its job, and does it well, high quality all around.
The Bad
No bad traits, only issue would be the DT1 cleaning system. Oil is great, cleaner im pretty sure is just expensive varsol.
Overall Review
Filter works great, cleaning system from DT1 needs works to take over the market.

Mika Metals 7075 Pro Series Handlebar
The Good
Good flex, great rider support.
The Bad
Only black bar color option, didnt bother me as black is what i think looks best anyway.
Overall Review
Used handlebar material to create flex rather than a heavy mechanical piece at the highest point of the motorcycle.

Nihilo Concepts KTM Linkage
Vital Review
Tested: Nihilo Concepts KTM Linkage
Overall Review
Review and photos by Joe Carlino Many people believe longer suspension linkage arms are only made for riders of shorter stature, so they can lower their bike's ride height. Yes, it does that. But when set up correctly, it can also be an advantage on the motocross track to improve the bike's stability and eliminate that loose willowy feel of the stock suspension setup. Nihilo Concepts Linkage Features: One millimeter longer than stock. Recommended sag 106-108 mm. Anodized orange. MSRP $219.95
