Motorcycle theft

Did you know that San Diego County has more motorcycles sold in per capita every year than anywhere else in the USA?

I always thought Los Angeles County with its population almost 3 times that of San Diego County would have more motorcycle thefts than San Diego County. But, actually Los Angeles County has roughly the same number (as San Diego County ) of motorcycle stolen each year.

Police authorities speculate that the reason for the high motorcycle thefts in San Diego County is because of its proximity to the Mexican border. From downtown San Diego the border is just 20 minutes to the south.

On a recent news report, it was disclosed that Mexican drug cartels have targeted motorcycles as a quick and easy way to raise cash from selling the bike parts and the entire bikes themselves to interior areas within Mexico and Central America. (more…)

Motorcycle Pinstriping

Motorcycle Pinstriping artist:

Motorcycles and do-it-yourself car and motorcycle mechanics use paint pin striping to create their own custom look on the automotive bodies and parts. (more…)

Harley Motorcycle Crash

This was a crash of a Harley rider doing motorcycle stunts at a Harley Davison bike night event in San Diego California. although the crash looks bad the motorcycle rider escaped with just a few bruises. It also looked like the Harley just ended up with a couple of minor scrapes.

These Harley motorcycle riders were doing wheelies and other motorcycle stunts right on Marina Boulevard in front of the San Diego Harley-Davidson dealership. personally, I think you’re really stretching the envelope when you do any type of motorcycle riding stunts. But, this is especially true when you do them on a heavy Harley-Davidson motorcycle! (more…)

San Diego Women Motorcycle Riders

This was a celebration of San Diego woman motorcycle riders that occurred in an art gallery in the Logan Heights area of South San Diego.

Personally, over the last decade or so I think the number of women motorcycle riders has increased exponentially! San Diego California is the ideal setting for motorcycling. The scenery from the Pacific Ocean to the mountains and deserts all within an easy couple hour ride, make San Diego a motorcycle rider’s paradise!

It said now that women make up 12% of the US motorcycle owners. this figure is up approximately28% just in the last five years!

From a survey conducted by the Motorcycle Industry Council, they show that in 2012, about 27 million people in the US operated a motorcycle. approximately 6.7 million of these motorcycle riders were women!

I understand that the manufacturer is now promising that this helmet will also have a built-in front mounted camera. The specifications of the camera were not released but I sure hope it’s at least 4K with some type of remote on all feature. I also read that they are going to be using Google maps for their built-in navigation. (more…)
