Sena SMH-5 Bluetooth Intercoms

shoei qwest sena smh 5 So I finally got around to updating the firmware on my SMH-5. If you have a Mac and have been trying to update yours, I highly recommend finding someone with Winblows. My husband and I tried at least 10 times to update it using the Mac software and couldn't get it to work. I rarely use my VMWare machine so it didn't occur to me to try that.

So I downloaded the PC version and voila, it worked the first time. Sena, you need to fix your Device Manager for Mac software!

Best Backpack for your Motorcycle?

Maybe. The Kriega US25 is right in the middle of the Kriega lineup at 25 Liters. It's not waterproof, but it offers a nice midsize that doesn't feel too big on my frame. I always feel like a little kid if I wear something that's way too big on me. I just bought this last week and will be commuting with her to see how it feels on the bike. Click here for a full overview of specs and features. $189.

New Reviews! Arai and Kriega

araivector2_white kriega_US10pack These are long overdue reviews that I'm finally posting. The first is of my beloved Arai Vector 2 Helmet. If you want to step up your game and invest in an incredible helmet, then you can't go wrong with Arai.

The second one is the Kriega Universal Tailpack System. I love this system because for those of us with tiny rear seats, saddlebag systems can be too wide or just not a perfect fit. They can also add width which interferes with swerve clearance and can redistribute the weight. I love these for my SV650 and I think you will too.
