New Pink Label Gear from Harley-Davidson
This is my first motorcycle ever—and I love it! I can’t imagine getting a better one (for now). It’s a 2010 Harley-Davidson Sportster Iron 883. What I love most about this bike is that it fits my 5-foot-3 height perfectly. I did have to change out the stock seat to a narrower one, but it works for me.

If you’ve ever worn a pair of fashion boots on your motorcycle, you’ve probably discovered they take a beating on the bike. Boots constructed for motorcyclists are made with riding wear and tear in mind, but off-the-rack motorcycle boots don’t always fit the way we want them to.

For cold-climate dwellers who can’t bear to stash away their motorcycles for five months, it’s time to start thinking about how to keep warm out on the open road.
Heated Gear to Warm Up Your Winter Rides
It had been a long three-year motorcycle drought for me. Although I was blessed to be able to rent a Honda ST1300, a Shadow Aero and a Harley on vacations over those three years, I missed riding my own steed and tried to miss it less by living vicariously through WRN contributor articles, having five different rider magazines sent to my house every month and attending motorcycle shows.

At my motorcycle training site where I’m an instructor for basic riding skills, students often ask me if I think they should start off on a scooter. Sometimes riders are nervous about learning how to work a clutch, while others have anxiety about their ability to plant both feet on the ground. I respond by telling them it’s their choice.

I’ve always enjoyed taking passengers and sharing my passion for riding motorcycles. But when my young daughter, Kaia, started asking me to take her for rides, I would immediately dismiss the idea. It’s one thing to accept the risk of injuring my own body, but to put my own daughter at risk was unimaginable.
