I paired it with &lt;strong&gt;Chigee&lt;/strong&gt;’s &lt;strong&gt;Quick-Release Module&lt;/strong&gt; for seamless swaps to my &lt;strong&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/strong&gt; and possibly more bikes later.

Extensive research led straight to the &lt;strong&gt;Chigee AIO-6 Max&lt;/strong&gt;, perfectly suited for &lt;strong&gt;Apple CarPlay&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Android Auto&lt;/strong&gt; on motorcycles.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Evotech-Performance Tail Tidy Review for Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100 MY2025+</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-evotech-performance-tail-tidy/</link><pubDate>Wed, 21 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-evotech-performance-tail-tidy/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Choosing the perfect tail tidy for the &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100&lt;/strong&gt; turned out to be more challenging than expected. With this being a new model, there weren’t many real-world photos or reviews online to help guide the decision. After narrowing down the options to three notable contenders — &lt;a href="https://top-block.com/en/license-plate-holder/770-support-de-plaque-aprilia-tuono-v4-rsv4-2025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Top Block Racing&lt;/a&gt;

, fully expecting to find well-engineered solutions. What I didn’t expect was to be distracted by their pillion seat cover assembly designed specifically for the latest &lt;strong&gt;Tuono&lt;/strong&gt;. Given &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia&lt;/strong&gt;’s decision to emphasize the rear with pronounced aerodynamic fins, the tail section can look visually busy, so I was genuinely curious how a cleaner aftermarket solution would change the bike’s overall balance.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Custom Daytona Motorcycle Boots - Real-World Experience and Review - Part 2/2</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/daytona-made-to-measure-boots-2/</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/daytona-made-to-measure-boots-2/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;In the previous article of this series, I mentioned that I would write a follow-up once my boots were delivered. However, since the riding season had already started by that time, it was naturally more important to be out on the road than to write blog articles. The delivery was delayed by about ten days, but to be fair, no exact delivery date had been promised, only an approximate timeframe. While the boots were being made, I was already traveling on my &lt;strong&gt;Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R&lt;/strong&gt;, using a different set of gear, so the wait wasn’t an issue.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Installing Aprilia Carbon Front Brake Air Ducts on the Tuono V4 Factory 1100</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-front-brake-air-intake/</link><pubDate>Thu, 23 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-front-brake-air-intake/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;When browsing through the official accessories catalog for my &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100&lt;/strong&gt;, I noticed the carbon front brake air ducts (part number &lt;em&gt;2S001379&lt;/em&gt;). However, considering their high price, I initially decided there were far more important accessories to get first, for example, an &lt;strong&gt;SC Project&lt;/strong&gt; exhaust, a more discreet license plate holder, or better-looking mirrors, so I postponed the purchase. But then, I happened to find the same ducts second-hand, in like-new condition, and decided to buy them earlier than planned. The rest of the accessories are scheduled for purchase and installation during the winter, which you’ll also be able to follow here on the blog.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Installing a USB Socket on the Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-usb-socket/</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-usb-socket/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I enjoy dynamic riding the most, especially on winding roads, which makes a GPS device an essential part of my setup even on a naked bike. My final choice was the &lt;strong&gt;Chigee AIO-6&lt;/strong&gt;, a device that supports &lt;strong&gt;Apple CarPlay&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Android Auto&lt;/strong&gt;. However, since it relies on a smartphone connection, and smartphone batteries rarely last a full day of riding, it was necessary to ensure a constant power supply during trips. Fortunately, most &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia&lt;/strong&gt; motorcycles, including the &lt;strong&gt;Tuono&lt;/strong&gt; series, offer a factory USB socket (part number &lt;em&gt;2S001789&lt;/em&gt;) as a convenient solution.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Aprilia MIA Module on the Tuono V4 Factory: Practical Test and Real-World Impressions</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-mia-module/</link><pubDate>Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-mia-module/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100&lt;/strong&gt; offers smartphone connectivity through an optional accessory known as the &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia MIA&lt;/strong&gt; multimedia platform. The latest version of this module, part number &lt;em&gt;2S002475&lt;/em&gt;, features updated hardware with built‑in memory capable of storing data from track sessions without requiring a connected smartphone. When paired with the additional GPS sensor (part number &lt;em&gt;2S002389&lt;/em&gt;), the module can record complete lap timing data independently.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Radiator and Oil Cooler Protection for Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100 – Installation Experience and Fitment Notes</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-2wheels-company-radiator-guard/</link><pubDate>Mon, 20 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-2wheels-company-radiator-guard/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;The next protection I wanted to install on my &lt;strong&gt;Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100&lt;/strong&gt; was a guard for the coolant and oil radiators. It often happens that small stones appear on the road and get thrown by the front wheel toward one of the radiators, potentially causing damage. In most cases, the radiator remains intact, perhaps losing a fraction of its cooling efficiency due to bent fins, but occasionally, a stone can pierce the radiator and end a trip abruptly. I wanted this protection to be made of aluminum, and after some research, I found a wide selection on the market including inexpensive options on AliExpress and well known brands like &lt;a href="https://evotech-performance.com/products/ep-radiator-guard-set-aprilia-tuono-v4-factory-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Evotech Performance&lt;/a&gt;
. However, I discovered that the German company &lt;a href="https://2wheels-company.com/en/products/kuhlerschutzgitter-kuhlerschutz-aprilia-rsv4-2021-2023-tuono-2021-2023-e5-schwarz" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;2Wheels-Company&lt;/a&gt;
 offers a very similar product at a competitive price, with the added advantage of a free return option in case it didn’t fit or meet expectations.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>LighTech Wheel Axle Sliders for Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100: Aesthetic Choice with Practical Considerations</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-lightech-wheel-axle-sliders/</link><pubDate>Sun, 19 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-lightech-wheel-axle-sliders/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;After installing the frame sliders, it was time to choose some protection for the wheel axles, specifically for the front and rear forks of the motorcycle. I considered options from &lt;strong&gt;GSG&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;R&amp;amp;G&lt;/strong&gt;, and several other manufacturers, but eventually decided on the &lt;a href="https://www.lightech.it/en/aprilia_tuono-v4-1100-factory_2025/wheel-axle-sliders-kit-for-aprilia-24833.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;LighTech wheel axle sliders&lt;/a&gt;
. From the photos, they didn’t look particularly robust, yet I opted for them primarily for aesthetic reasons. Some protection is still better than none, so I was ready for that compromise.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>From Triumph Rocket 3 to Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory: Choosing the Right Bike and Installing Top Block Racing Frame Sliders</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-tbr-frame-sliders/</link><pubDate>Sat, 18 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/aprilia-tuono-v4-tbr-frame-sliders/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;After a little more than a year, I began seriously considering selling my &lt;strong&gt;Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R&lt;/strong&gt;.

Other bags are either too large, blocking the navigation screen, or don’t match the tank shape properly, sometimes even interfering when turning the handlebars to full lock. As visible in the photos, this bag sits quite well on the bike. The navigation display (in my case, &lt;strong&gt;a Chigee AIO-6&lt;/strong&gt;) is only slightly obscured, and when leaning forward, you might occasionally touch the bag’s edge with your chest. but such compromises are often necessary and acceptable here.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Tire Replacement on Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R and Kawasaki H2 SX SE: Practical Experience with EazyRizer and Kern-Stabi Stands</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/tire-change-2025/</link><pubDate>Thu, 16 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/tire-change-2025/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Although I own two motorcycles, by the end of May this year the tires on both were worn out and needed replacement. As I mentioned before, for lifting the &lt;strong&gt;Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R&lt;/strong&gt; I had previously acquired the &lt;strong&gt;EazyRizer Big Blue&lt;/strong&gt; lift, while for the &lt;strong&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/strong&gt; the &lt;strong&gt;Kern-Stabi Spindle Stand X4 2049&lt;/strong&gt; front stand was sufficient. I won’t go into the procedure itself, you can find plenty of detailed videos on YouTube and other websites, but I wanted to share a few photos showing how the process looked in my case. The conclusion is straightforward: both lifts performed their intended functions effectively, allowing me to remove the wheels without much effort, take them to a tire shop for replacement and balancing, and then reinstall them on the motorcycles.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Quad Lock Mounts for Motorcycles: Fork Stem and Handlebar Clamp Bolt PRO Review</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/quad-lock-pro-mounts/</link><pubDate>Wed, 15 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/quad-lock-pro-mounts/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quad Lock&lt;/strong&gt; is well known among riders for secure and practical smartphone mounting systems. I recently had the chance to examine two of their PRO models — the &lt;strong&gt;Fork Stem Mount PRO&lt;/strong&gt; and the &lt;strong&gt;Handlebar Clamp Bolt Mount PRO&lt;/strong&gt;. Both feature metal construction, clean design, and the same dual-stage locking system found across the Quad Lock range.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Quad Lock Brake/Clutch Mount on Kawasaki H2 SX – A Practical Phone Mounting Solution</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/kawasaki-h2sx-quad-lock/</link><pubDate>Mon, 13 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/kawasaki-h2sx-quad-lock/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Since I had already bought a &lt;strong&gt;Quad Lock&lt;/strong&gt; case for my smartphone, it was only natural to equip my &lt;strong&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/strong&gt; with a proper mount from the same brand. My fork stem had previously hosted a &lt;strong&gt;Garmin zūmo XT2&lt;/strong&gt; mount, which I planned to replace with a &lt;strong&gt;Chigee AIO-6&lt;/strong&gt; unit, so I needed a &lt;strong&gt;Quad Lock&lt;/strong&gt; mount for some other position on the bike. After some research and consideration, I went with the &lt;strong&gt;Brake/Clutch Mount&lt;/strong&gt;, a compact and sturdy system that attaches directly to the brake or clutch lever clamp. On my bike, I mounted it to the brake side, where it offers a pretty clear view of the screen without interfering with handlebar movement.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Kern-Stabi Spindle Stand X4 2049 – A German Masterpiece for Motorcycle Care</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/kern-stabi-spindle-stand-x4-2049/</link><pubDate>Sun, 12 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/kern-stabi-spindle-stand-x4-2049/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;For riders in regions with long winters, like Munich, parking the bike for months is inevitable. Some might simply cover it and forget it, but for those of us who treat our motorcycles like mechanical art, that’s never enough.

When the roads turn icy and the bikes go into hibernation, I like to give my machines the best possible rest.

It might sound overly meticulous, but if you can do something to extend your bike’s lifespan—why not?&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Triumph Rocket 3 - Quad Lock Handlebar Mount Pro</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/triumph-rocket-3-quad-lock/</link><pubDate>Wed, 03 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/triumph-rocket-3-quad-lock/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I’ve already sold my &lt;strong&gt;Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R&lt;/strong&gt; and moved on to a new bike, but I still wanted to show how the &lt;strong&gt;Quad Lock&lt;/strong&gt; phone mount sits on this machine. From experience, it can be tricky to find real-world pictures of how certain products fit specific motorcycles, so I like to share that insight whenever I can. Installing the &lt;strong&gt;Quad Lock Handlebar Mount Pro&lt;/strong&gt; with vibration dampener is straightforward on any bike with standard handlebars, and it looks sharp on the &lt;strong&gt;Rocket 3&lt;/strong&gt;. The phone remains impressively stable, making this a mount I’d confidently recommend to any rider.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>D3O Back Protectors Reviewed: Held Exosafe vs. Richa Viper Stealth</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/d3o-back-protectors/</link><pubDate>Tue, 02 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/d3o-back-protectors/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I’ve previously covered &lt;a href="https://acim.net/blog/held-d3o-protectors/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Held Exosafe by D3O Back Protector&lt;/a&gt;

Thankfully, there are versatile holders available that can be affixed to the fork stem, mirrors, screens, and various other locations. However, the real challenge lies in establishing a power supply without compromising the motorcycle&amp;rsquo;s original wiring, while ensuring the installation is both safe and tidy. My preferred method involves connecting the power supply to an existing connector that offers switched voltage. Some motorcycles, like the &lt;strong&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/strong&gt;, come equipped with dedicated accessory wiring.

The former features shoelaces, while the latter employs velcro, allowing them to stretch sufficiently to fit my feet, which have a large over-ankle and calf circumference.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Kawasaki H2 SX SE - Puig Z-Racing Screen (Dark Smoke)</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/kawasaki-h2sx-puig-z-racing-screen/</link><pubDate>Tue, 11 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/kawasaki-h2sx-puig-z-racing-screen/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/strong&gt; is a motorcycle that embodies the perfect blend of sportiness and functionality, and the &lt;strong&gt;Z-Racing Screen&lt;/strong&gt; by &lt;strong&gt;Puig&lt;/strong&gt; is an accessory that enhances this balance.

This motorcycle offers an exceptional seating position and top-notch suspension, making it a joy to ride. Despite the occasional critique from sport riders who find it a bit on the heavy side, I find it remarkably light, especially when transitioning from the &lt;em&gt;BMW K 1600 GT&lt;/em&gt; and still owning a &lt;em&gt;Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R&lt;/em&gt;. The &lt;em&gt;H2 SX SE&lt;/em&gt; is incredibly agile, effortlessly leaning into curves and accommodating sporty riding, all while allowing for some luggage on board.

My first encounter with their products was when I acquired frame sliders for my &lt;em&gt;BMW K1300R&lt;/em&gt;, a bike I rode from 2014 until the autumn of 2023. Recently, while searching for frame sliders for my new &lt;em&gt;Kawasaki H2 SX SE&lt;/em&gt;, I discovered that &lt;em&gt;TBR&lt;/em&gt; manufactures them for this model as well. Despite some uncertainty from a German dealer regarding compatibility with the 2023 model, I decided to place an order, knowing they fit models from 2018 to 2022. Unfortunately, the sliders did not fit my bike, possibly due to minor changes in the frame or thicker welds.

They offer 5 different sizes, 3L, 6L, 13L and finally 16L. CLICK BAG 3L is not extendable, but remaining sizes expand to 8, 16 and 19 liters respectively. 3L bag is the only one that comes with the rain cover while other bags come with internal waterproof bags. This second solution also keeps your goods dry but I find it not that practical. First, it occupies some space inside and second, it&amp;rsquo;s more difficult to put the stuff in and take them out. Anyways, the bags are really good quality and they attach to appropriate tank rings very easily, just one click. This attachment system is very similar to SW-Motech Pro but without magnets. Wunderlich is an expensive brand but some of their CLICK BAGS are basically the only safe options for BMW K 1600 GT, namely 3L and 6L. Unfortunately SW-Motech Pro tank bags collide with the fully turned handlebars and random switches might got pressed. Besides that, this may limit the movement of the handlebars to the end which may make turning the bike around more difficult. But let&amp;rsquo;s see how Wunderlich tank bags fit on K 1600 GT and which one I chose for my bike.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>BMW K 1600 GT Wunderlich tank ring</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/bmw-k1600gt-wunderlich-tankring/</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/bmw-k1600gt-wunderlich-tankring/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I am not sure if I have previously mentioned, but my previous bike was K1300R which I owned from 2013 till 2023, quite 10 years and I was very happy with it. There were no particular reasons to sell it except that I wanted a new bike and I couldn&amp;rsquo;t keep both of them because of the space in my underground garage. I got SW-Motech tank ring and &lt;a href="https://sw-motech.com/en/products/luggage/tank&amp;#43;bags/PRO&amp;#43;tank&amp;#43;bag/4052572182307.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Daypack bag&lt;/a&gt;
 on this bike and it served very well, great quality. The same tank ring fits on K1600GT, but none of the SW-Motech bags fit. You may ask what&amp;rsquo;s the reason for this and the answer is simple, when you completely turn handle bars they collide with the bag and some buttons may be accidentally be pressed. This is obviously not safe even you don&amp;rsquo;t have to completely turn the handlebars during the ride, but just at stand. I searched the web and found out that there is just one more quick mount and release tank bag option this time manufactured by Wunderlich. Unfortunately, their tank ring was not available until few days ago, but I have ordered it almost immediately and mounted it on my bike, so here you can find out the installation instructions and my experience with it.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Best inner bag for BMW K1600GT top case</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/top-case-inner-bag/</link><pubDate>Tue, 03 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/top-case-inner-bag/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I have already explained in the previous blog what means &amp;ldquo;best quality inner bag(s)&amp;rdquo; means to me and that is not just the quality of materials and manufacture, but also the weight, space usage, space optimization and so on.

&lt;p&gt;So why did I write this? I recently bought K1600GT and started looking for some aftermarket parts. But I was surprised that there are actually not many information about some of the products, very often no pictures or just bad quality ones, no videos, quite strange. This specially applies BMW genuine parts. Some forums contain some information but very often without any pictures. All this makes decision to buy something or not very difficult.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Shoei GT-Air 3</title><link>https://acim.net/blog/shoei-gt-air-3/</link><pubDate>Sat, 23 Sep 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acim.net/blog/shoei-gt-air-3/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;After quite a while, I decided to blog about my other hobbies, namely motorcycling.
