Christmas Moto-gifts?

[CLAY]

Either from someone, to someone, or for yourself?

I got a Trail-Tech Vapor for my XR650L from my dear wife.    She's a keeper.  

I think I'm going to order the idiot light dashboard to put it in.  

[Scratch33]

Tammy got a set of Cruz Tools.  I got a RAM holder for my Galaxy S3.  

[sodapop6620]

 my dear wife.    She's a keeper.  

Just to get this out of the way.

 

[xsrider]

My wife gave me a Givi Airflow windscreen for my Tiger 800.  I told her what I wanted, and she got it for me.  

In the past,  my wife also told me to sell my old Kawasaki and buy the Tiger 800.   Needless to say, I'm going to keep my wife...and the Tiger.  

[Kneescrubber]

I gotta case of oil & 3 filters from my kids.

+1!

[RIDUX]

Tourmaster Solution 2 boots and a wool balaclava!

[falconati]

I gifted myself a set of BMW Atlantis 4 leathers  

[JReazor]

A cool little LED light that goes in my top box and turns on and off automatically, a tire gauge that weighs about 12 lbs. and a pair as Alpinestars boots that are hopelessly too narrow. Those are being exchanged for a pair of TCX X-Miles.

[Stripes]

I got myself a bunch of parts for my Norton as an early Christmas present!  

[JReazor]

Yeah, Ken wins.

[nater]

A fender eliminator and frame sliders.

[Carbonero]

My girlfriend said "We need to ride more."  

[JReazor]

Now Chris wins.

Well shit yeah.  


Early Christmas presents were upgraded suspension bits for both VFRs.  

[Rincewind]

I got a helmet mohawk.  Sorry dear - it won't work with my flip-up helmet.  Imagine my disappointment.  

Also got some Gasolina boots in the right size, after getting wrong sized ones for my birthday.

My early gift was a set of Michelin Anakees for my Tiger 800, which have proved awesome for wet winter roads.  

[dan88z]

Gerbings heated jacket liner and a pair of Qwi gloves from my wife.
Quiet insert for my Two Bros pipe from my daughter.

The Gerbings works great, I wore my summer mesh jacket over the liner and was toasty warm in 42 degrees.  

[veefer800canuck]

I got a set of Bridgeport 90' angled valve stems for my friend Craig.

[black hills]

I was bad this year, didn't get anything

[expatbrit]

Bought the girlfriend a VTR250 for Xmas, with intentions to convert it to a race bike so she can race 250 and probably lightweight vintage next season. Also won her a new Shoei RF1100.

My moto-related Xmas gift? That came from Revzilla

[Moto Morphin Power Ranger]

And the C-bow system and bags for the Griso. (I love my wife)

I'd be interested in some pics/review when you get around to installing/using them.

When the rack part is in (on back order till the 1st) I will post up pix and any other pic you need.

So, was this an exchange or are these things nonreturnable so you got a second pair?  

My On-Roads are going to need to be replaced soon and you've piqued my interest w/ these boots.

[R Doug]

Sheri got me a pair of BMW's "City Pants 2."  

[Mr.Black]

I got the go ahead to use her debit card for the parts I need for any 35,000 mile stuff I wish to do.

The first pair were put into the mail today for return.  It's basically an exchange seeing that the first pair didn't fit.  Though the boots ship from Mexico, they have a US return address.

I love them!   This will be my 3 year and they are holding up super well. the only con i have with them is that it's almost impossible to poop while wearing them. the knee/shin armor keeps them from going down.

   Good to know.  

[Nodaclu]

Got a CycleGear gift card from the wife.   It'll come in handy as my 7 year old gloves have completely fallen apart.

[Kraz]

Bought myself a HF toolchest on Black Friday... not sure that qualifies.  

[kyzrex]

Got 4 envelopes from my wife.....each one had the name of an rally or race event I plan to attend each year on it....and a gift MasterCard inside to help pay for it!  Love my wife!

[bluepoof]

Not much moto-related this year.  My inlaws got me a small picture book on Harleys (I think they just saw a bike on the cover, though the photography is pretty neat).  Peter got me a really neat ratchet wrench that works by twisting the handle, for use in very tight spaces.  

[radon222]

Cindy scored a Garmin NavIV for the RT... and I got a fleece vest with embroidered GS on the chest  

[X1Glider]

I replaced my Rukka SRO that I damaged in September.  Got another Rukka...Armas.  Preferred the SRO but this is a close 2nd.  Present to myself.

[dietDrThunder]

Wife bought me a pair of CompAcc Sliders Kevlar jeans...very happy with them.

[jstark47]

Heavy socks, merino wool.  Nothing better for winter riding.  

[Mrs. DantesDame]

I bought Dan and I Garmin maps (European!) and in exchange, he'll get us BMWs once we get to Europe

Sounds like a pretty even trade to me.  

[bubba zanetti]

Butler motorcycle specific map of Northern Cali. Really excellent map, waterproof as well.




Sent ... Me.

[Jim M.]

 A set of Oxford heated grips and a Garmin GPS with mounting hardware. I got the wife a new Scorpion textile jacket.

[Shizoku]

A new bike, but it won't be here until March  It's coming from Italy  

Under the tree there was some nice apparel to match the bike  

First trip next year, early part of next year, I'd like to hit up Death Valley.

Dave in Valencia


PS...anyone in the market for a nice used ZZR?

[expatbrit]

Did you finally decide on the MTS? Nice!!

Mildly lopsided.  I still think Dan got the better of the deal.  

[FJRider]

Santa (me) was really good to (me).

Set of Michelin PR3's

Russell Day Long Leather Seat

MC Enterprise rear crash bars

Motorcycle Larry highway pegs

PIAA dual Horns

Helibar Triple Clamp

Grip Buddies

V-Stream Windshield

Clearwater Glenda Driving Lights.

USB Port for my phone charger

I've installed everything last week except the tires and Helibar clamp. Mukwonago Yamaha will be doing that.


 

[wibornz]

Crap, I didn't get anything moto related.  

[CBRXXBLACKBIRD]

I got my 919 SS brake lines and a GoPro camera

[coho]

I got myself some moto-stuff, but it was needed and I probably would have bought it anyway.
Firstgear Kenya Jacket and (yet another) pair of Darien pants.

[stew71]

The Mrs gave me a copy of 101 Road Tales by Clement Salvadori.  

[Hunter]

Wife bought me a pair of CompAcc Sliders Kevlar jeans...very happy with them.

I bought myself a pair of these though I haven't tried them out yet, been to cold as the temps haven't gotten over 55 for the past few weeks. I also bought myself this to replace my old Shark RSX. Always a fan of Mr. Daytona.

[wibornz]

Just bought me a Kawasaki shirt, new red clutch and brake levers, red oil cap and red vale stem caps.  Got to stay off amazon.

What, no guns.

[aviationfred]

I have been wanting a set of leathers for some time. I found these under the tree from my girlfriend. They are used, and fit well, she got the size right.

[Moto Morphin Power Ranger]

That goes nice with the bike!

[wibornz]

Wrong time for me.  I buy low, sell high.  Now is the time to be selling guns.

[Bravo12]

My wife hooked me up!

I got a Bilt Explorer "adventure" helmet, in white. It's basically a dual-sport helmet - moto-X styling with a clear faceshield - but it's the first one I've seen (at under $500 at least) that has an internal sun visor. It fits better than my AFX dual-sport helmet I wore for 2 weeks in Quebec, and the internal sun visor means no more fiddling between my regular prescription eyeglasses and my dark prescription sunglasses. http://www.cyclegear.com/eng/product/explorer_adventure_helmet/web1011511

She also got me the new Hero GoPro3 Silver edition. I can use my iPhone as a remote control, it records up to 60fps @720p, and I think Hobbit-like 48fps @1080p. The viewing angles are adjustable, and all options are easily changed with the iPhone app (as opposed to cycling through the 3-digit menus on the lcd screen). I'm gonna be making some cool videos this year, especially since my Hero2 is still alive and kicking; that's video from TWO angles at once.

Add to that, the Kobalt double-drive ratchet set, that I'll be adding to my bike's tool roll. http://www.amazon.com/Kobalt-20-piece-Double-Drive-50-piece-0172851/dp/B00ANR0UKK/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1357615757&sr=8-6&keywords=kobalt+double+drive

I got some clothes and stuff, too - including a Stig t-shirt that states "I AM THE STIG" - but these are the most motorcycle-oriented of my presents.

[ScotchFan]

Lets see, hydraulic lift table, self locking wheel chock, a new battery for the St1300, cam lock tie downs, Gerbing jacket liner and heated gloves.  Another battery charger/maintainer.

Still need new helmet and new boots.
