When riding a motorcycle, it's important that you have all of the important safety gear like motorcycle jackets and motorcycle helmets. This gear is needed in order to be able to protect yourself fully in the event of a crash. This should be your first priority when getting ready for any motorcycle ride, but often times some of the more important pieces of leather gear are overlooked and disregarded. Some of those important leather gear items include leather chaps, and leather motorcycle boots, and gloves.One of the more important pieces of gear that any motorcycle rider could have are leather boots, and often times many riders fail to take advantage of this great piece of equipment and settle for less protective footwear like tennis shoes or even sandals. It's amazing that anyone would even consider wearing sandals on a motorcycle given the fact that there are so many parts on the motorcycle that become extremely hot when in operation. The risk for getting burned is very high. Not only that, but sandals leave you exposed to any flying dirt or debris that could strike you while riding. The best way to protect your feet is with a good pair of motorcycle boots. You'll want to...more

The HKS hi power exhaust is available as an aftermarket hi powered exhaust for many makes and models including but not limited to: Acura, Mazda, Honda, Toyota, Ford, GM, Dodge, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Nissan and Subaru. The HKS hi power exhaust is modeled after some of the GT racing in Japan for turbo charging and aspirated uses. HKS hi power exhausts incorporated the race inspired offset mufflers and pipes into street use that now offers more flow and higher PRM because the design is less restrictive. This is made by taking out bends that are not needed, and giving a straighter path for the exhaust.When used as a supercharger, the HKS hi power exhaust lets more exhaust velocity through for better mid range boosts and more high RPM power. Those vehicles that are naturally aspirated will see better exhaust flow when the engines tuning levels go up. There are some silent HKS hi power exhaust versions that have a silencer inside the muffler. All of the HKS hi power exhaust systems are made out of stainless steel tips and mufflers, and some of these tips range in size from 96mm to 120 mm in diameter depending on make and model of the vehicle. Piping diameters range from 55mm-95mm depending...more
