    Hi from Richmon Hill

    Hi all, new member here.

    I've got 32 years riding experience & have owned 19 different bikes over that time, everything from sportsbikes, Harleys, dual sport, etc. Each one ridden for at least one year, (except the Honda XL185 I garbage picked last year & sold on Craigslist 2 days later for $150.00!).

    I commute to work in Toronto on my bike as well as doing at least one major trip a year, usually put about 12k per season on 2 wheels.

    I do all my own maintenance and have most tools required for routine maintenance.

    Good to have a resource like this on the net.

    I have a '01 Suzuki 750 Katana - wanted to try out a sport tourer. Put 15k on it in the past year. I'll probably sell it in the spring for something different next season.
    Right now one of my fork tubes in in the shop having it's leaky seals replaced.

    Welcome!

    I also commute to Toronto from Richmond Hill every day. I take Hwy-7 west then Dufferin/Allen south. I also go through a sweet S-turn in the St. Clair & Christie area. Do you know any better route?

    And even more interesting, I also used to have an XL185S I kept mine for a year but I never hit any serious trails with it. The brakes on it didn't really give me the confidence to do it... I took it to 95kph once... I kept it under 80kph after that so that I wouldn't need a change of underwear.

    My office is at Leslie/York Mills so I'm not really downtown. 1/2 hour easy commute, but no curves!

    I’d rather be riding my motorcycle thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about my motorcycle.
