I used the D&.D kit for 2010 & 2012 so I would have the right size bungs for the O2 sensors. The header pipe with this kit offsets the muffler to the right so an offset is needed to move the muffler to the left and down to align the muffler with the stock muffler hanger located at the rear of the trike. – See more at: http://bikernettrikes.com/pages/TRIKE_MUFFLER.aspx

Using archival and candid interviews with family, friends and colleagues, the true story of the man behind the myth will be unraveled by those who knew Knievel best.

In less than a decade, Evel Knievel took motorcycle jumping from its sideshow origins to unthinkable heights of popularity that still resonate today – while breaking nearly every bone in his body in the process. But who was Knievel? And how did he manage to catapult from small town county fairs to sold-out stadiums across the country?

To the public, Knievel was an American hero and a dedicated husband and father. But behind-the-scenes, there was a much darker and more violent side. Using archival and candid interviews with family, friends and colleagues, the true story of the man behind the myth will be unraveled by those who knew Knievel best.

Tune in to Pure Evel: American Legend on Monday, October 14 at 10/9c!

 The Indian Papoose Motor Scooter

The Indian Papoose motor scooter was developed after World War II and was based on an earlier motor scooter called the Welbike, which was actually built for the British Army.

After the war, John Dolphin – who had been an engineer on the Welbike project – saw an opportunity to re-design these little scooters for the civilian market.  Seeing a need for cheap transportation after the war, Dolphin partnered with Brockhouse engineering to create the British Corgi.  Many of these motor scooters were sent to the United States and re-branded as the Indian Papoose.

Why We Ride will begin a one-week run on November 1^st in Los Angeles at the AMC Puente Hills 20, 1560 South Azusa Avenue, City of Industry, Calif.

Why We Ride is a story about who we are. Individuals with a desire to dream, discover, and explore. Seeking a life outside our daily confinements and sharing those moments together. It’s a story about the journey, not the destination.

Motorcycles represent the milestones of our lives. From a kid’s dream come true, to a retiree’s return to freedom. From a family riding together on the sand dunes, to hundreds of choppers carving through the canyons — the bond is the same. It’s about the passion of the riders and the soul of their machines.

Your senses will heighten as the world rushes in, your heart will beat to the pulse of the engine, your mind will race and set you free. Once you let a motorcycle into your life, it will change you forever.

Why We Ride screened in New York at the Motorcycle Film Festival 2013, where it won Best Feature Documentary, in Los Angeles at the Motion Picture Academy on October 3rd, and will have its East Coast Premiere in Florida.
