A review of Avon Vs. Michelin comparison
by Mike Mullen, a guest commentator,
on this site. Mike's specialty is the
Ducati ST4S. Mike goes in-depth
on why you should run Avon
Tires on your ST4S. You will
find a link to Mike's home-
page, where you will find
product reviews, do-it-
yourself pictorials and
beautiful travel
photos.
After Mike's review, I have added my own
comments on my use of Avon tires
and a look at what Avon has to
say about their new Azaro's
Storm-ST' tires which I
have been testing last
fall and on a few
rides this year.
I Like then!

WHAT'S NEW
This website is starting to grow from my
original 5 pages to about 20 pages over
the next few months. You will see less
content on each page, but more
content in all. While pictures
are still not clickable, I'm
hoping to have one
photo with the
description
and
a
link
directly
under it, so I
don't have to combine
photos and reviews before you
get to the links. This site should be
easier to navigate while I finish creating
my clickable website using the
software from Softpress,
Freeway 5 Pro.
Now Testing: (This Spring or Sooner)
KISANTECH'S Sequential Turn Signal
(Brake Light Modulator & Running
Lights), CRUISERWORKS
PowerWick Shirts,
ROADGEAR
AirTec Mesh Gloves,
KISAN TECHNOLOGIES
Brake Light Modulator tailBlazer,
ROADGEAR Magnetic Jumbo Sport
Tank Bag
NOW HEAR THIS EARPLUGS "The S Plug"
Deep in Ear Canal, Stereo Earphone,
featuring better Noise Isolation and
Deeper, Fuller Sound and all day
comfort. (My tests reveal this to
be a superior product, having
now tried and returned both
the Etymotic ERοΏ½6 Isolator
Earphones and the Sure
3c Sound Isolating
Earphones). Find
a link on Page 5
under 'Gear'.
About to Test: (This Spring or Sooner)
PulseTechοΏ½ XC100-P Xtreme ChargeοΏ½
is a Five-Stage Maintenance Battery
Charger (which really work well),
Lee Parks Designs DeerSportsοΏ½
Black and Tan Deerskin and
Elkskin Gloves,I am also be
testing two types of
Wicking Sox.
Also new to this website: I will be reviewing
Consumer Electronics like: 'On The Go'
electronics from Dice Electronics.
When I'm not on my Ducati I'm
riding in my BMW Z3 roadster
which doesn't have a good
form of iPod integration
into my Car
Stereo.
The Dice HD Radio Integration Kit with iPod
Control, should be able to fix the problem
gracefully. While testing electronics I will
also be reviewing IOGEAR DVI 4 Port
KVM Switch Model GCS1764, Belkin
4 Port OmniView VGA KVM Model
F1DS104U, Sony KDL-40XBR4
a 40" LCD Flat Panel HDTV,
Infocus IN72 DLP Projector,
Logitech S 530 Laser
Mouse and Keyboard
for Mac. NetBook
Computers from
either ASUS or
HP.
Freeway 5 Pro
from Softpress & Canon's
VIXIA HF100 HD Camcorder
I'm now negotiating with two manufacturers
of intercoms. One is the BAEHR BLACKLINE
Series Rider to Passenger Intercom with
stereo audio input. I might be testing
the ACTIVE (premium) model with
a Continuous Wind Noise
suppression system &
Automatic
Music
Volume Suppression.
Featuring individual Volume
Controls. The other intercom uses
Bluetooth to connect to your Bluetooth
enabled phone, GPS and other
audio products. I will be listing
the product as soon I have
made my choice. I will
only be testing one
of these two
units. Once
I decide
which
one to test I
will list it here
and review it this Summer.
WHAT ELSE IS NEW
I will be testing the new chargeGUARD
System Monitoring from KISAN
Technoloies, I have been testing
the TrekPodοΏ½ a Monopod /
Tripod / Walking Staff with
a ball-head camera
mount and a carry
case for
portability, which
makes it very easy
to transport on the road
and use on the hiking trail.Use
it like a ski pole when walking,
(fanatic product).
SOUND & VIDEO ON THE GO
I have some new products from the NY
Motorcycle Show held in December.
Legal Speeding's Adjustable Plate
Mount (APM) for my GPS, iPhone
and my MP3 player and other
possible devices. I tried to
test the Tony Hawk's
Helmet Cam last
Summer and
Fall but it is
designed
for a Skateboarding helmet and doesn't
fit on a motorcycle helmet. I tried
taping it to my helmet but it
created a lot of drag. I
can't test it until I find
a way to mount it.
I did find a very
expensive High
Quality Video
Recorder
and
Helmet Mount Camera at the show and
will review it if possible.

WHAT'S HOT & WHAT'S NOT
WHAT'S HOT
I will continue to find products that go beyond the
ordinary and will be posting my first list
soon, now that CES, Macworld and
The International Motorcycle
Show (NYC) have
concluded this
year.
WHAT'S NOT
Unless I find something really terrible this column
will stay empty. There is however, one product
that I'm thinking of listing here, which is
a Dell monitor. Dell's Customer
Service might also be a
candidate.
