Welcome to CanyonChasers.net! We started out by just posting photos of our motorcycle vacations on a webserver, just to share pictures with each other, but savvy web users found us and started asking us questions about our journeys, which gear we liked and routes we'd recommend. We were replying to so many emails that we began posting the answers to questions onto that same website - and hence began CanyonChasers.net in its current form. A lot of that original content is still on here, but we are trying to add more and more content every week so please visit often.
You can also follow us using cool, hip and trendy social networking sites!

We recognize that not everyone spends a great deal of time on the race-track, either racing or doing track days. But Pirelli came out with a track day specific tire designed just for track day junkies (like ourselves). Since we already know that we are slow, and don't feel like we need to go racing to prove our slowness to the world, track time is our closed course cup of tea, so we were quite excited to hear about this track-day specific tire.

When the original Road Attack hit the streets it put the sport touring motorcycle world on its ear. Now with the new Road Attack 2 can Conti do it again? We accepted the challenge and set out to burn through a couple of sets to see how these new tires did. We ran over Bear Tooth Pass in Montana then headed south through the most technical roads in Southern Utah. See what we learned in our review of the Continental Road Attack 2 »
Over the years, we've seen people load, transport and tie-down their motorcycles in the most preposterous ways imaginable using a myriad of different kinds of straps. Resulting in us being witness to all kinds of motorcycle mishaps ranging from failed loading practices to straps failing and causing the bike to topple off the top of the trailer. In the meantime, we'd successfully transported hundreds of different motorcycles thousands of miles without a single mishap (knock-on-wood). So we decided to take a little bit of time and share the techniques we've used for years that have given us such good results. Watch our newest video; How to Load and Tie-Down your Motorcycle »
|  We just heard from our friends at Continental Tires. They have just released the TKC-80's in a 120/70-17 and a 180/55-17. Full off-road knobblies for your sportbike. (making this S1000R about the coolest S1000R we've ever seen) What do you think of that? Would you run a set? Do you hate having to maintain your chain? Do walk away from seemingly amazing motorcycles because they a have high-maintenance chain instead of a shaft-drive? Well, thanks to this crazy little product with a goofy name, chain maintenance is a whole lot easier, and if the product promises are to be believed, use of this product will actually extend the life of your chain. We didn't have 30,000 miles to validate that last claim, but you can see what we discovered when we used the Grease Ninja on our chains when you read our review of The Grease Ninja »
With a name like Skwoosh, it must be good, right? Well, that's what we set out to find out. With the cost of custom or replacements seats hovering around five bills, the idea of a much more affordable alternative is very appealing, particularly in these tough times where our motorcycle dollar must go farther than it had to a few years ago. Our biggest fear about these seat covers is that they wouldn't stay put or would add unnecessary bulk to the seat. Find out what we learned about the Skwoosh »
