Love Motorcycles? Use Them On Your Checks!
It’s easy to show your interests and personality these days, even when it comes to your bank checks. If you take a look at any website that sells checks you will find hundreds of themes available to choose from. From animals to landscapes, it’s possible to find images that suit any personality. If it’s motorcycles you’re into, there’s a variety of themes to be found.
Motorcycles can present an affordable fuel-efficient alternative to other modes of transport. For a single person driving at a steady pace, motorcycles are capable of getting higher MPGs than some cars. Motorcycles have become the number one mode of transport in some countries like Vietnam. They can also be more economical, like in London where motorcycles are not charged the city congestion fee.
Motorcycles don’t always have the same meaning for different people. No matter what your interests lie in, you can probably find a check that corresponds with your personality. Don’t think you have to ride a Harley to be considered a motorcycle buff.
However, if you ride a Harley, you pretty much have a wide array of choices for your motorcycle checks. Since Harley-Davidsons first came onto the scene in Milwaukee in 1903, they have inspired a bevy of loyal customers. Their logo-inspired merchandise alone accounts for 5% of their annual sales. Whether you drive a Sportser, a Dyna, or a Softail, it is fairly easy to find Harley themed personal checks that fit your style. Some companies even offer checkbook covers that match the motorcycle checks.
Are you a policeman? You can also find personalized checks that contain references to careers. There are many police forces that use motorcycles as means of transport. Some companies offer checks with designs that represent not only police officers’ service to their community, but also feature the motorcycles they ride on while doing so.
For those people that like to demonstrate their love of classic American symbols, patriotic checks exist that feature such things as the American flag, the bald eagle, and the classic motorcycle. Some would argue that these are all expressions of America’s love of freedom. Motorcycles can be associated with the “open road” and personal expression, which makes them popular on the patriotic checks.
Of course, motorcycles are most commonly associated with speed and adventure. Street bikes can be used for track races and intense competitions. Some images that you can get on your motorcycle personal checks are those of drag bikes and races. Racing is not only entertainment for some people, but also a way of life.
Personalizing your checks with images of your passion for motorcycles can be excellent way to show off your interests. If you are in the motorcycle business, it can also be used for marketing purposes. Otherwise plain checks are made more personal with images and are memorable.
If you want to save money on your motorcycle personal checks, try ordering them online. There are many websites available that let you order them for 50% cheaper than you can get them at your local bank. You can also get duplicate checks and checkbook covers that match your checks.
Before you order motorcycle checks, go to Motorcycle-Checks.com to get coupons and to save 50% off your next purchase of motorcycle personal checks.
Government Ban On Biker Colors In Bars !
These sort of “grey area” laws are extremely dangerous and a threat to everyone’s freedom. Who decides what constitutes “Gang Apparel”? I’m wondering if Boy Scouts are going to be able to eat together at Applebees if they are in their uniforms.
According to news reports, many Bikers and Motorcycle Club Members in Virginia have already begun fighting this law. If a law like this is allowed to stand in Virginia, it won’t be long until it is passed in other states across America!
We as Motorcyclists and Bikers (It does not matter what you call yourself) have to realize fast that we are all connected. It doesn’t matter what you ride, what State you live in or who you Support, we’re all in this together. What effects Me effects you and it doesn’t matter what you happen to think of me.
When the local Bar you and your Brothers love hanging out at is told that you and all other members of Motorcycle Clubs can no longer go there or they will revoke the Bars liquor license, What then?
This is no Joke my Biker Brothers, every month there is another new law that is aimed not only Motorcycle Club Members, but all Americans. It seems that every time the Government wants to take away a freedom, they find a way to craft a new law for our “safety”. What kind of Country is this turning into when you can’t wear what you want and suddenly, your constitutional right to assemble is taken away from you?
Although there are many ignorant people out there that believe Motorcycle Clubs are Gangs, that’s simply not the case. Most Motorcycle Clubs are made up of hard working, honest, law abiding, patriotic, American Citizens who enjoy a common bond, Motorcycles. It’s what is in a persons heart that determines who they are, not the clothes they wear.
In the past year the government has taken away the Colors of one Motorcycle Club. A law enforcement officer can demand anyone sporting the Clubs logo to forfeit it. The theory is that the loss of the logo strips the club of its “gang identity.”
Grant it, it appears that some of the Clubs members may have been involved in illegal activities, but that doesn’t mean that everyone who rides a Motorcycle should be punished for it. In fact, less than 10% of this 600 Member Club was even accused of wrong doing.
In addition, the Government and law enforcement agencies have been spending millions of our dollars to influence friends and ex-members of Motorcycle Clubs in an effort to infiltrate these clubs in hopes of catching members doing something illegal. Often, when they find that the Club they’ve infiltrated is nothing more than a group of Patriotic, Law Abiding Men & Women, they’ll fabric wrong doing so that they can justify the enormous amount of resources spent on these Fishing Expeditions.
Just imagine how much better off we’d all be if they used those resources to investigate the Corrupt Politicians, the Corporations that control our Country, Wall Street, and the other issues that are quickly sinking this great Nation.
What I want to know is, what will be the last straw? What’s it going to take for us to say enough is enough? We can not fight these Laws and Fight each other at the same time! We need to work together to save what we are, who we are.
The Government has taken away our rights to ride the Motorcycle we want, to wear what we want and now to go where we want! Why are we still fighting each other? When are we going to wake up??

Small Town Brawl!
Then the front door opened and in walked ten of the biggest men she had ever seen. They talked loudly and as they walked over to the far side of the bar, She got a look at the back of their jackets. She could easily see that the markings on them where all the same. The men ordered pitchers of beer and their talking only got louder as they drank more and talked about things she did not understand. Then the men went quite as the front door opened and in walked seven more large men, at first she thought these seven men where with the first Ten as they looked and dressed similar but as she looked at the markings on the backs of these new comers Jackets she could tell while they where similar the markings where different, By the way the two groups where looking at each other she guessed the difference must mean a lot to them.
The Seven men sat up toward the front of the bar and also ordered pitchers of beer. The young girl did her best to make sure both groups where kept happy, but it was just a matter of time and Beer! When one of the men from the first group called out to her, “Hey Honey don’t worry about those guys, there losers! Come over here and hang with some real men.” That was all it took, the fuse was lit. “Who you calling losers pal we are good enough to beat you any day of the week!” Yelled back a guy from the second group. “You may think your as good as us but you never will be!” Yelled back a man from the first group.
Then in what was a blur to our young barmaid a fight broke out between the two groups it was loud and she could hear glass and wood breaking all around her as the men cursed and screamed at each other. This young Girl was scared and she feared for her life.
Her fear abated a little when in the distance she heard sirens. The police are coming, she thought to herself as she hid behind the bar. The police arrived in force and they stormed in arresting the men and taking them away. When things got quite and all the men where taken away the young girl looked around the small bar. So much damage she thought to herself, She looked at one of the officers and asked how did you know to come here. We got a call that these two groups where both heading to this bar and we just knew, it happens all the time with these type of guys!!!
Epilogue: The next morning when the young barmaid awoke she walked down stairs to the kitchen where her father was reading the morning paper. Does it say anything about the fight in the bar yesterday she asked her father? Yes he said as he pointed to a small article in the back of the paper “Yankees and Mets fans Brawl it out in small town bar” the story went on to explain how all the men where given tickets for disorderly conduct and released. That’s it she screamed at her father these men trash the bar, scare the hell out of me, They should all be in jail and all they get is Tickets!!! Calm down sweetheart her father said as he hugged her, The way your acting one would think it had been a bunch of rowdy Bikers in the bar yesterday! Those Guys would have been locked away, But it was only Sports fans!

No Charity Event For Motorcycle Club Members
Hey everyone this is LJ James.
You may not know this but I worked at Bide A Wee in Wantagh for many years. I have some great memories of my time working there. As much as I love the place and think Bide A Wee to be a truly great organization, I will not take off my Colors to go inside Jugs & Strokers to attend this event.
I see this email is addressed to many different Clubs. Some of your beliefs may be different then mine and you may take your Colors off to attend this event. I would hope all of you have more respect for your Club then to do that, but these are my beliefs and may not be yours.
I think it is only fair to Kim who is working very hard for this very worthy cause that she know what your feelings are about the Jugs and Strokers policy in regards to Colors. Kim has spent a lot of time working on this event and I would hate to see her event fail because she is unaware of the Revulsion Jugs and Strokers has towards Motorcycle Clubs!!!
Not only is it an old out dated Policy that promotes the Division of Motorcycle Riders, it is also illegal according to NY State Law! I have been working hard to protect and promote Motorcycle Rights and Unity here in NY and world wide. I think it is time We started working hard to change what is wrong here on Long Island! There is an old saying, “if you want to fix the world start in your own back yard”.
This is an event that, when I heard about it I wanted to attend. Then I hear it is being held at Jugs and now I am “not allowed to attend”.
I am not a bad guy! You all out there know me. How many of your events have I covered in Magazines? How many of you have I DJed for? Not only your Club events but many of your personal family events! I’ve even preformed wedding ceremonies for a few of you and after I married you I Djed your wedding!!!
You too are also all good people. Your MCs have done many things to make Long Island a better place. You have fed the Hungry, Clothed the poor, and made sure every Child on Long Island had a Toy for the Holidays. Our patches stand for what is great about America! Why should we be made to feel that wearing our Colors is even the slightest bit wrong?
If you ask Jugs and Strokers, they might try to use the excuse “well its not your group its other groups who are the bad guys”. That is a cop out, a lie, and an attempt to divide the Long Island Motorcycle Club world!!!
Over the past few years here on Long Island we have seen a Unity in the Motorcycle Club World that many still can not believe. Sport Bike Clubs and Cruiser Clubs riding and hanging together. AMA Clubs and 1% Clubs attend each others events. Law Enforcement Clubs and Outlaw Clubs Breaking Bread and Drinking together at events. I have seen every type of rider hanging out together. This is the Biker dream people!!!
There was a time when we were all told that you could not have a bar on Long Island where all MCs where aloud to mingle together. That there would be nothing but fights and problems. Then JDs Place opened and shortly after that, the Myth was put to rest.
The Motorcycle World here on Long Island has become something We are all very proud of. I call out to all of you MCs, independents, and MROs like ABATE, it is time to end the humiliating practice that Jugs and Strokers has been aloud to inflict upon the Long Island Motorcycle World for far too long!!!
I am tired of this bar being allowed to claim it is a biker bar for bikers, but if your a member of a Motorcycle Club and wear your Colors, you are some how an undesirable, and unwelcome. I say time is up, Jugs and Stokers! You have made enough money off the Long Island Motorcycle world! You need to stop being part of the Problem and become part of the Solution!!!
I’m interested to know what the feelings are of the rest of you!!!
(Because of this reply, Shortly after I wrote this the event was switched to another Long Island Biker Bar “Sick Moon Saloon” That welcomes all who Ride)

Discrimination On The Basis Of Clothing Or Club Membership Is ILLEGAL Article I, Section 11 of the New York State Constitution states “that no person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws of this state or any subdivision thereof.” Article 4, Section 40 of the Civil Rights Law provides that “all persons within the jurisdiction of this state shall be entitled to the full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities and privileges of any places of public accommodations, resort or amusement subject only to the conditions and limitations established by law and applicable alike to all persons.” The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that individuals have the constitutional right under the First Amendment to wear clothing which displays writing or designs. Cohen v. California, 403 US 15 (1971). In addition, the right of an individual to freedom of association has long been recognized and protected by the United States Supreme Court. Thus, a person’s right to wear the clothing of his choice, as well as his right to belong to any club or organization his choice is constitutionally protected, and persons or establishments who discriminate on the basis of clothing or club membership are subject to a lawsuit.

A Quick and Fun Solution to Pollution that Saves You Money
Filed under: Motorcycle and Motorcycle Safety
Some people seek to lower their carbon footprint. Some are less willing to pay out big bucks at the gas pump since the economy is so bad these days. Both of these factors are leading people to discover the joy of owning a maxiscoot for basic transportation and commuting.
Typically, scooters have been powered by small engines in the range of 50 to 200cc. These smaller, traditional scooters have been quite dependable in delivering a satisfactory experience in urban areas for shorter commutes but many must negotiate freeways with the accompanying requirement for higher speeds or have larger distances to cover.
Traditionally scooters have relied on the smaller of these engines to provide their power. MaxiScoots are a relatively new type of scooter that combines a modern scooter style and frame with an engine of 250ccs or above.
The best part is that in spite of the higher performance offered by the maxiscoot class, they still deliver savings at the pump over operating a car and help you feel less guilty about your contribution to air pollution. Simply put, choosing a maxiscoot helps everyone breathe a little better.
Maxiscoots have been appealing to international consumer markets in Italy and Japan and thusly most of the manufacturers are based in these markets as well. But recently, with the public becoming more environmentally conscious, more manufacturers have entered into the arena. Taiwan has begun production of the Maxi class Bug Hawk 250.
By changing your mode of transportation the money you used to put into the gas tank can now into the bank! Or you could splurge and treat yourself to something nice since you’ve been nice to the planet, right?
In the end saving money and creating a better place to live is what it’s all really about. The maxiscoot helps to achieve both of these goals and puts a smile on your face in the process.
It reasons to say that with the consumers interested in reducing their cash spent on fuel along with a global need to reduce carbon emissions, consumers will be more than satisfied with the growing abundance of MaxiScoots to satisfy their need to ride!

The Chop Heard ‘Round the World
After World War II, veterans came home and decided to strip down their bikes to make them easier to ride. Aping their military motorcycles, the vets were quick to make their civilian bikes capable of racing in rough terrain. A typical civilian bike was laden with unneeded parts and accessories.
In a frenzy, they chopped off fenders, turn indicators, front breaks, and spring suspended saddles. The tires, headlights, and fuel tanks were all replaced with smaller and lighter options to reduce the weight of their bikes. The resultant bike was referred to as a chopped up motorcycle, that is, a chopper. These choppers became so fashionable; motorcycle manufacturers began to build chopper versions of popular models.
They were initially designed for riders looking for excitement on rough terrain. The modern versions, however, have been equipped with the very parts that the vets were eager to chop off. The emphasis on weight also seems to be a thing of the past as modern choppers seldom, if ever, ride on anything other than asphalt. From the rough and tumble to the corporate poser.
Looking good was never the aim of the chopper. A proper chopper had its rake and trail, the axis where the forks and the wheel join, modified; creating that long, slanted look that is distinctive to the chopper. That look can also be a major cause for a number of accidents. The chopper is renowned as a difficult bike to ride, as most new riders are unaccustomed to the change of the rake and trail. Any riders who are not experienced could hurt themselves.
Should you find yourself on the asphalt, make sure your insurance is up to date. Insurance companies, even companies that insure typical motorcycles, do not always cover a tailored bike, like a chopper. You’ve got to know all the current motorcycle laws that pertain to your kind of bike. If your chopper takes a tumble, make sure you consult qualified motorcycle accident lawyers who will work with you to get results. Until then, get your motor running!
Brush up on all your motorcycle law codes before hitting the open road. You never know when a little motorcycle law can go a long way.
When Getting Discount Tires, Keep These Points In Mind
We all know that keeping a car maintained properly can be costly to say the least, so it’s no surprise that some people try to cut one of the costs with discount tires. Not just any tire can be bought as a discount tire. To help you get started, here are some things you should know.
Consider Tire Safety.
Just because your purchasing discount tires doesn’t mean they have to be low on tread. The discount tires that you want to purchase should be made with quality materials and meet standards for durability. It helps to seek out a well known brand name tire when checking for discounts.
You Need To Know Where to Get Them.
Discounted tires are available in many places. Be on the lookout for advertisements from tire dealers and sellers, and on occasion, some fortunate customers will receive limited discount coupons. You will benefit from shopping for discounted tires at these locations:
Neighborhood outlets in and around your home. Seasonal discounts may be provided for tires at these outlets. It will be very advantageous if you watch carefully for sales to be advertised.
Some retail stores or smaller independent dealers may have discount tires that they will run ads on in the paper or at an auction site. The downside is that these types of places can often be a bit risky. If the retailer or person selling the tires isn’t well known, you take a chance at dealing with a possible scam artist who will more than likely give you a shady deal. Auctions are great places to get discount tires, but you may want to educate yourself and gain some experience before shopping there.
It’s Beneficial to Shop at Online Stores.
For starters, you can’t beat the convenience of online shopping. Once you find a store that catches your eye, you provide them with information about the tire you’re looking for, make the purchase, and soon it will be delivered right to your home. You really can’t beat shopping from the comfort of your own home, avoiding the hassle of crowds and saving gas isn’t bad either!
Stores that have been open for a longer period of time will yield both a reputation to back them up as well as corroborate them. You will never have to worry about any scams if you do business with a reputable store. There is even a possibility that you might receive some kind of guarantee or quality warranty with your purchase.
Finally, a reputable store will not only deliver the tire for your convenience, but should also be able to help you out with directions on installing your tire or the name of a good place to have it installed.

Sears Tires
Anytime you’re making a purchase, it’s best to look around at a few different stores to find the best deal overall. When you’re looking for tires, you might consider Sears tires. Many people have been pleased with their experience with Sears, while others wish they’d chosen a different company. In order to ensure that you’re making the best decision, you’ll want to carefully consider the pros and cons of various companies.
One of the reasons that many people like buying Sears tires is because they find it to be very convenient. They can take their car in and while their Sears tires are being balanced and rotated, they can shop around for their other needs. Many people like the idea of killing two birds with one stone, instead of having to sit in a waiting room at a tire repair store.
You can also buy your Sears tires online, which is more convenient for some. You simply choose the tires you’re looking for, pay for them, and then drive to your closest Sears to have them balanced. Many people like this option because they’ll know exactly what they’re going to spend before they get there, and it gives them the opportunity to shop around to find the best prices.
However, some people don’t like to buy Sears tires. Those who have needs for specialty or high performance tires find that Sears doesn’t always have what they need. While they can likely find a similar tire and have it delivered to Sears, this process can sometimes take days or weeks. If you want your tires right away, Sears tires might not be the best option.
Another issue with Sears tires is their pricing structure. Many people who shop around end up finding that there are other companies out there that can provide a better price than Sears can. Sears is not in business solely to sell tires, so they often don’t have some of the discounts and extras that other tire stores can offer.
One additional thing to consider is the lifespan of Sears tires. While they do come with a warranty, some are worried about the longevity of Sears stores in general. With many department stores closing or declaring bankruptcy, they worry that they’ll buy Sears tires, only to have Sears go out of business within a few weeks or months. The concern is that their warranty would no longer be valid and they’d have to pay another company for repairs that should have been covered.

Electric Pocket Bikes Are A Cheaper Alternative To A Motorcycle
Everyone knows that motorcycles, while being a fun and efficient vehicle, can also be somewhat dangerous. Unfortunately, many people will get into accidents involving motorcycles because they do not take themselves seriously enough while riding them, feeling that a motorcycle is simply a vehicle for fun. Anyone who feels this way should consider investing in electric pocket bikes instead of a motorcycle, because it gives them the chance to still have the fun of a motorcycle without the larger risk.
When you look at a pocket bike, you are looking at a smaller version of a traditional motorcycle. They have been designed to top out around 15 miles per hour, so you will still pick up enough speed to feel a little wind in your face without losing control. You can experience the same things that you could on a regular motorcycle and be able to avoid all of the risk that is normally found on one of these bikes.
Even though the pocket bikes look small, riders can traditionally ride them as long as they are under 6 feet tall. Some models of the bikes can handle riders who weigh up to 170 pounds, letting many adults have the same thrill as younger children might. Electric pocket bikes are made for many people, not just younger ones.
Of course, the best part about these bikes are that they run completely on electric power. Traditionally, 12 volt batteries are attached to the bike which can be recharged. Up to 30 minutes of continuous use is possible with these batteries, which can recharge in about 4 hours. This means these bikes will run without the cost and the hassle that gasoline would require.
Running on electric energy, these bikes are also super quiet. You can ride them around without causing much of a distraction in your neighborhood. This makes electric pocket bikes into a great choice when you or your children want all of the fun that can come with a motorcycle but you know the responsibility for a real bike wouldn’t be there.
