Personally, I'm not into the whole "fear and intimidation" aspect in a lot of today's motorcycling gear. I have never donned flames, bones, or skulls. However, I am a realist, and I know this is a marketable aspect of our sport.

The KBC Ed Hardy "Death or Glory" Nomad brings me a weird kind of joy. The Ed Hardy tattoo designs, which don't shirk their responsibility of transmitting a certain disregard for an under-lived life, give this helmet an uncompromising look.

This particular model of the Nomad is in no way subtle, ...

Just when you think you can't say anything else about motorcycle mirrors, Willie G goes and does it again. It's easy to over-do with skulls. Too many skulls, skulls that are too big, skulls that are ridiculous, skulls in the shape of kitty heads with bows on them -- yeah. ...

Full-face helmets are not for everyone. The claustrophobic, for instance, might find them restrictive. Heck, I find them restrictive and I'm one of their most avid defenders. I'm inclined toward the half helmets for their style and the wind-in-your-face experience. Scorpion's Spitfire is a nice compromise if you're ever feeling ...

These mirrors are for a niche market. You're either going to look at these and love them, or hate them.

So even if you aren't lighting your Cubanos with ten-dollar bills, even if you aren't having to pick between driving your Lamborghini and your Maserati, even if you are the non-Alaskan version of Joe Sixpack... you can still customize your bike (a little) with cool mirrors.

And the great thing about mirrors is there ...

My first riding helmet was a matte black shell without any kind of symbol or emblem aside from the DOT sticker. After a while, I cut a few designs out of reflective tape and decorated its plain exterior. One of my riding buddies told me later that the ...

Edward Teach, better known by the infamous title of "Blackbeard the Pirate," was a master of psychological warfare. It is entirely likely that he never killed a single person on his routine high-seas pillaging. Teach chose, instead of violence, to terrify with symbols and extravagant charades. This is why he set his ...

The symbol of the skull has always been linked with motorcycles. Some riders try to separate themselves from the "bad" biker image and consider the skull to be passe at best. It would not surprise me if some see the Icon Regulator vest as tacky, but there is a ...

When summertime is upon us, that's good news for every moto-head out there. Motorcyclists are lucky. Most areas of society have shunned the convenient piece of clothing that has become iconic to the identity of two-wheeled lovers the world over. I often wonder if the first person bold enough to remove ...

Been looking to get in touch with your inner zombie? Do you identify best with your undead friends? Are you in the market for a jacket with a pretty wicked graphic scheme? Well if any of those questions apply to you then Icon's Decay Hooligan jacket may be just what ...

Last year I was riding down the freeway when I saw a woman on the overpass above me, stopped at a red light. She was riding a large cruiser but she could have been riding a horse for all the attention I paid to the bike. She was wearing ...
