Pretty nasty picture I saw over on Blood Falcons the other day, but just getting around to sharing. Hope this never happens to mine…
Thought I would share a couple of small things I did to the XR over the past couple of weeks. There are a few more (one pretty major change), but these are what I’m going to show right now. Make sure and check out the new gear over at the Icon 1000 website. The new [...]
The AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 Series – featuring the distinctive thunder of Harley-Davidson motorcycles – will return to the Red Bull Indianapolis GP schedule Aug. 17-19 after a successful, popular Indianapolis Motor Speedway debut in 2011. AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 adds a fourth class of racing to the Red Bull Indianapolis [...]
Today at the V-Twin show Vance and Hines were showing these off and will be coming soon! Look for more information when available, but until then, just check out the pictures.
Wonder how this would do on MY XR1200! Looks like it would be a killer modification for a nice boost in power! This big bore, stock stroke “square” engine kit develops an excellent balance of torque and horsepower that delivers lots of arm stretching fun. The kit is supplied with Zipper’s aluminum big bore cylinders [...]
I took a few pictures of the current state of my XR1200. There are a few things I still want to do, but for the most part it’s coming along pretty well. One major missing item that needs to be done is the exhaust. Still stock… Enjoy the pictures of the bike and make [...]
Pits were open in the XR1200 camp today. Pretty cool getting to see all the bikes out and being worked on. Not too often one can get this close to some bikes.
I was out at Indianapolis Motor Speedway today to watch the XR1200 bikes take a few laps around the track. Lots of pictures and video, but this is the only one I’ve got time to upload this evening. More later about the day, and the evening at the Vance & Hines shop with the XR1200 [...]
Next up on the list is purely cosmetic on my bike. Just cause I liked the look of the XR1200 with the belly pan installed. For the race bikes, there is actually a use for the belly pan, keeping oil off the track. You’ll notice that with the mods for street use, that’s pretty much [...]
Just a quick update on some stuff I have on the new bars I installed not long ago. I installed the 4Lock iPhone mount and the HelmetSecure helmet lock. Both were simple installs, but I took the drill to the 4Lock iPhone mount to suite my needs… see below. Icon Motosports is the sponsor of [...]

Is Harley-Davidson Apparel Turning Over A New Leaf?
Anybody else get the Spring 2012 Collection from Harley-Davidson in the mail box this week? What did you think?? Me, I actually found quite a few things I liked in there… when was the last time that happened? I can think of 1 over the past few years. The Half Mile jacket last year was [...]
