Getting Into Supermoto

Supermoto racing in the United States has been in a state of dud for the past few years, but Supermoto street riding remains strong as ever.

Motostrano's parts collection and supermoto conversion kits are hands down the choice of builders looking to get the best parts and the best deals for their motard conversion.

Motostrano's been active in the supermoto community for nearly 10 years. Our kits are built on that history and the parts are tried and true .

Our top selling conversion kit, the "Bare Bones" kit, is the entry level kit for many riders looking for an affordable kit to start their supermoto trip.

Other popular parts include our supermoto fenders, supermoto handguards and our tire collection. For street riders, tire choices abound but most riders call us with basic questions that scope from the looks of a tire on one end to the actual needs of the tire on the other. We recommend getting tires for the actual riding you'll be doing most of the time. Ie. don't get a rain tire just because it looks cool. Get a rain tire if you are riding 90% of the time in the rain.

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
