As the chill of winter settles in, it’s the perfect time for us Harley riders to take stock of our gear. We’re a unique breed, valuing tradition and style as much as the rumble of our bikes. Leather, denim, and the open road is all good, but looking “good” can really suck if you lay […]

In recent years, headsets with built-in video cameras have gained popularity among motorcycle enthusiasts, allowing them to capture their journeys and relive the thrill of the ride. In this comprehensive review, we will delve into several motorcycle headsets featuring […]
Last month, a buddy of mine asked me about a set of heads I had tucked away for a rainy day project, and as I dug around the top shelf in the barn, I found the reminder of why I don’t do leather work. A seat for a 1988 or so Softail I’d tried to […]
So in my last post, I shared a little bit about Schott NYC and their leather goodies. Full disclosure? I’ve got one of their coats and it feels butter-smooth, even now at the beginning of its third riding season. Now, though, I want us all to think back to one of the greatest road-trip/biker movies […]
Look, we’re all getting antsy about the riding season, even down here, where “cold” weather is practically shirt sleeves for our brothers up north. Nonetheless, I thought it might be smart to take a few minutes this week to share a few things you ought to look for before you jump on the bike this […]
The reasons why you need to conceal and carry while on your motorcycle is your business. Whether you’re law enforcement or someone who chooses to carry a handgun for protection, trying to conceal and carry on a motorcycle without the right motorcycle gear can be a somewhat challenging. The challenge is keeping your handgun concealed on […]
Leather is a very unique material with a long tradition of use in fashion and clothing. Today leather vests and different leather products are almost always made from animal hides. In most apparel for men, leather vests will be one of the most robust items in their wardrobe, making it important to choose the right […]
It’s funny to think back to when I first started riding how much crap ended up in the saddlebags. Now, truth be told, some of that was out of necessity – my bike in those days had plenty of problems and I needed to make sure that I had a pretty fair assortment of tools […]
Every few years, I head high up into the Rocky Mountains, ostensibly to go hunting for a few days with some old friends, but also, to visit with distant family from my enlisted days. Usually, these treks involve a protracted series of flights to Denver, Colorado or Cody, Wyoming, then a few hours one way […]
For months now, we’ve been consumed by bad news, strange news, weird times, and a media that keeps shoving terms like “the new normal” down our throats. Let me give you some good news for a change… besides the fact it’s riding season. The Bikers’ Den is promoting some new boots. For you. …And the […]
One of the biggest complaints I have when I’m on a bike is eye protection. Undoubtedly, the safest you can get is a full face mask, but we both know that looks way out of place for a Harley rider. On the other end of the spectrum are those guys wearing the little bitty “John […]
“You See, What Had Happened Was”… Man, I got that line so many times as a young cop on weekend nights in bad parts of town. One guy would give us one version of the truth, his old lady, another, and the other perp would tell the story completely differently. We won’t even get into […]
A million years ago, or at least a lifetime ago, as a new recruit in boot camp, my Drill Instructor, Sergeant Kirby, reminded all of us that the only thing we absolutely needed to have to go to war was our boots. As with most Drill Instructors, Sgt. Kirby did this at a high volume, […]
No matter what type of bike you’re riding, the only real point of contact you have with that bike is – you guessed it – your butt. Ever since the first bike was designed, manufacturers and tinkerers have been trying to figure out how to make seats more comfortable. Sometimes, they’ve done a pretty good […]
Down here in the deep southern United States, it’s still hot. Like, 100 degrees in the afternoon hot. On the other hand, Sturgis is over and football is starting, so the truth is, there’s not as much riding left as a lot of us would like. So it was more than a little humorous when […]
You’re screwed. You just got pulled over in another state (or province) on the scoot and you know you did what the cop is writing you a ticket for. For whatever reason, though, he’s being a hardass on you, so now, instead of just signing the ticket and going on about your business, he’s looking […]
Two things I personally cannot stand – sore feet and folks riding motorcycles with wimpy footwear. Now, the sore feet thing is real – I spent what felt like years standing in all manner of boots and dress shoes. Around the time I escaped from the Academy, “combat” style boots had gotten a makeover and […]
[The following is a paid sponsored article by PandoMoto.com] In recent decades, the number of motorcycles on the road has increased dramatically. This may be good news for motorcycle riders and manufacturers, but it presents an increasing safety issue on the roadways. More than ever, it is essential that you have the right kind of […]
The story of Fox Creek Leather is the story of America itself. From one man, Paul Trachy, who held himself and his own handmade products to a higher standard, to his decades-old dream of uniting small teams of craftsmen from around the United States. When you buy an item from Fox Creek Leather, you’re buying […]
Let’s face it, there are a lot of helmets out there. Whether you like full face, ¾, or our favorite, the beanie, every manufacturer has different ideas on what “fit” and “safety” seem to mean. Sure, you could slap a sticker on a novelty helmet, but for some of us, safety gear is critical and […]
Schott’s heritage is a true-blue, real-deal, piece of Americana. The iconic styles produced by hand for over 100 years have become infused in American culture and have served as battle flags for the American spirit. Begun by two brothers of a Russian immigrant, Schott NYC originally sold jackets – of all places – door to […]
Hillside USA has been manufacturing top quality AMERICAN MADE motorcycle leather apparel, which includes jackets, vests, chaps and gear for men and women, for nearly three decades. Why? The simple truth is that as more and more jobs in the textile and garment making industry went overseas, the void that was left – for high-quality […]
From day one, Viking Bags envisioned every bag they would build to be an extension of the bike itself. Those bags should hold true to the very values that riders wanted in the bikes themselves – functional, durable, and, yes, even beautiful. The Viking philosophy was simple and radical – build bags inside out. The […]
Pro Pad, Inc. is a family-owned manufacturer of motorcycle parts and accessories, such as motorcycle seat pads, motorcycle gel seat inserts, and motorcycle flag mounts. They got their start back in 1999 with the simple goal of making comfortable seats for their personal Harleys. From day one, the team at Pro Pad has believed that […]
So, a couple of weeks ago, The Boss called and told me that Bikers’ Den was going to start carrying some of the Daytona Helmets line. I told him that was great, but I had a helmet and then he reminded me that part of my job is to make sure that you guys – […]
About three of you will remember a few months ago when the neighbor ruined my riding jacket and the good news about The Bikers’ Den having just the new one I needed. Well, the neighbor’s wife isn’t trying to do my laundry, but now that the snow is blowing in a lot of places and […]
