I am thinking Moto related here. What have you bought lately ?

I just picked up a DeLorme InReach SE. Have been an early adopter of SPOT, and still have my original, but after reading about a solo rider in Baja, who badly broke his leg, I thought I would upgrade. Picked one up off of EBay used for $100 shipped. Works great. 2 way texting and an SOS that gets answered.

I picked up a couple Rotopax 1.75 gallon cans and mounts for the Stelvio a week or so ago, and got the rebuilt shock for the Buell in the mail (and bought a gasket for the primary so I can fix the shifting...LOL).  I have new front rotors for the Stelvio, and a signal lens and brake light switch for the LeMans, sitting in Kamloops. So I have a good excuse to ride #3 and 5A next week (and to get a full service on the Stelvio).  I will be shopping for Heidenaus soon...I see A Vicious Cycle lists the 170 rear now, but I don't want to pay $264.42...will see what the Guzzi dealer can do to match that.

Alpinestars DryStar gloves. After several years, my previous pair finally wore out.

I bought a Sena S20 dual set as a replacement for my aging Scala Rider.  Haven't had a chance to really use it yet, but the set up was easy, and the music sounds excellent.

A KTM SMT for the wife (factory lowered 2") and one for me!  

And the evening we returned from picking them up 4k miles away in Oregon, I accidentally won a Super Duke R on eBay, previously used by Chris Fillmore...

Now I have 5 bikes to clean, prep, and sell...but I just wanna ride!

iTips for my glove so I can operate my giant iPhone 6+ which is my GPS while on the road (not sure I like them, basically a stylus tip on your finger) and a bunch of connectors for the accessory harness on the VFR for my USB outlet and voltage meter.

I bought some Motul 5100 - 10/40, an oil filter and a set of Michelin Pilot Road 4-gt's. I changed the oil, flushed the rad and put in new coolant, cleaned the K&N air filter and spooned on new shoes. Now it's time to go riding.

I just bought a mustang seat for my VStar.
I started looking at them last year, but couldn't justify the price.
Then a guy put a 'only used once' one on the VStar forum with a really nice price because he (accidentally) bought a different bike... UPS tracking says I'll get it tomorrow.

Agreed! I wonder if the bags from an 8th Gen VFR800 will fit on a VFR1200...looks like similar integrated brackets...
