Episode 021 : Renting a motorcycle and wind buffeting




Throttled Motorcycle Podcast show

Summary: Once again I am back and Larry Lanes once again joins me on the show.  We discuss the interesting parts of the internet this week.  I talk about my trip out to Las Vegas and my bike rental experience on a Indian Chieftain.  We then get into a discussion on windshield/helmet buffeting.  As always you can find the links to the news articles below:<br> Samsung’s <a href="http://blog.motorcycle.com/2016/03/17/manufacturers/yamaha/samsung-announces-smart-windshield/">“Smart” Windshield</a><br> EBR has released<a href="http://blog.motorcycle.com/2016/03/18/motorcycle-news/ebr/"> pricing information </a>that I think makes these bikes pretty attractive.<br> Honda gives us a few different<a href="http://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/new-bikes/2016/march/honda-africa-twin-goes-hardcore/"> African Twin models </a>to chose from.<br> In the show I mentioned an article that I want to get some feed back on and <a href="http://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2016/march/mcn-plus---better-riding-braking-for-corners---ride/">this is it</a>. The article discusses corners and braking.  Do you follow this approach?  Do you agree that this is how it is done and there are no other options?  Do you have other comments or thoughts on this topic or anything else (it doesn’t even have to be something we covered in the show…you know just kinda/sorta related to motorcycles)?  If you want to share send an email to <a href="mailto:feedback@throttledpodcast.com">feedback@throttledpodcast.com</a>.<br> One last feedback request. Do you want a Throttled Podcast facebook / twitter presence?  Would you follow?  If you think it is a terrible idea let us know.  If you think it is a great idea…you guessed it…let us know.<br> Thanks for listening everybody and Ride Safe this week.<br>  <br>
