AFX FX-37 Dual Sport Helmet


In the motorcycle industry, you typically have to dig hard and deep to find anything really interesting to quack about. Mix in a little shitty economy on top of that and you have to put on your archeologist's gear to come up with cool artifacts to write home about. That is why I nearly fell off my chair when the national Sales Manager from AFX pulled up to my desk today and plopped down their new "Dual Sport" Helmet for me to check out. The guy was obviously well briefed by his probably very sexy Korean secretary about what Motostrano does and doesn't do before visiting us to present what isn't a Dual Sport helmet at all, but a really good and really affordable Supermoto helmet.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the AFX FX-37 Dual Sport Helmet. We're calling it the AFX FX-37 Supermoto Helmet though.

Lift the shield up for uncluttered viewing both straight, left and right.

Very light weight, typical AFX. Very inexpensive, at just $114.00, another typical AFX characteristic and in this case we're willing to throw out the "how much is your head worth" diatribe. It's been proven over and over again that price doesn't equal level of safety. Comfortable too! That's right, this helmet is comfortable.

It's a DS helmet not a supermoto helmet. No such thing as a supermoto helmet. Get over the supermoto fad.

Hardware: Supermoto Wheels Explained

Supermoto wheels are a big investment, when you factor that your 2-3 year old dirt bike may have a resale value in dirt form in the $4-5K range, if that. We get calls from guys all the time who say "well, I'm not really racing or nothing, so I'm just looking for the cheapest wheels you have to convert to Supermoto". Well, the real reply there is that there really isn't a cheap way to get into Supermoto unless you're going to go Sportsman about it and ride on knobbies or some type of dual-sport tire. Quality 17-inch supermoto wheels that will last are going to set you back between $800 and $2000 depending on how deep you're going to go at this and whether you want quality and performance or just a good price. Motostrano is a full scale supermoto specialist and we've been involved in Supermoto since it's re-birth in the United States in 2002. We offer complete supermoto wheels made from the finest materials and built by experience wheel builders

Riding the Moustache Samedi 27 2X Tandem Electric Bike

I love riding with my partner and riding by tandem is one of my favorite ways to get around on a Sunday. Touring by tandem is literally twice as fun as riding solo,when you are on a bike with the one you love and the one that loves you. But tandem bikes are rare and excellent electric tandem bikes are even rarer, so I wanted to give you a fresh impression of our ride yesterday on the 2018 MOUSTACHE Samedi 27 X2 tandem . Moustache is a French company, making some of the most innovative ebikes in the world. Their tandem is no exception. This bike comes in two build types, either a smooth tire touring type or a knobby tire off-road type, but the frames, motors and other specs are pretty much the same.  I've ridden tandems for the past few years on road and off road. Yesterday we did a Meet-Up ride with other fellow ebikers in the Sonoma area. Naturally we were the only tandem riders, with others riding solo on their Haibikes, KTM, Giant, Felt and Blix bikes. Out and

Bust Your Commute at Motostrano.com

If you live in the Bay Area, "getting around" is a constant thing to be reconciled with in your daily life. But, unlike other parts of the country where cars dominate completely and your only choice is to grin and bear it, you have countless alternate transportation solutions to help you differentiate from the crowd, go against the stream instead of with it, get un-stuck from traffic and benefit from health upsides as a result. Never before has there been such a wide variety of commuter-focused "personal transportation devices" available to you and the Bay Area is as usual a testing ground for all kinds of creative solutions to help you get from A to B.  Motostrano is the store at the center of all these alternative commuting solutions and we have been for almost 20 years now. Since 2002, a big part of Motostrano's focus has been about busting your commute. In the beginning it was motorcycles and in 2009 we migrated to bicycles and specifically  electric bicy
