Thanks for write up. When I purchased my Supersport 939. I had it down between that and Triumph Street Triple. But I didn't get a chance to demo either and went with what I thought was more comfortable for me at the time. How was the Street Triple at slow speeds. E.g slowly moving on from a...

Yea I get what the posts above are saying. It's not the same when they were a smaller operation where the staff remembered who we were. The way I see it with all shop and retail closings over the the years. At least we have one successful operation that will be around. Sure they may not be as...

I believe loyalty is still worth something. For example at GP bikes. I have mostly been a customer for gear and service for over 16 years. I recall when they were still a smaller shop in Ajax. In any case everytime I go and buy some gear. They will not only apply the typical 10% off everyone...

It's just legalized extortion. Just taking advantage of the most vulnerable. It's just unfortunate that low income people can't get a loan or line of credit through more reasonable sources.

I find their service department professional. Not perfect. But for me they do communicate when the bike wasn't ready on time and the reasons. I typically try to get the services done off peak time eg late Nov. Or early Dec. Not trying to make excuses for them, but this time of year it's just too...

Saw Sisu 2 Road to Revenge . Great movie...

This is not something I'd be interested in. I stopped closely following F1 years ago. And you are correct I see MotoGp following the same route. Races become more boring . It becomes more of a time trial vs actual racing...

To me Phillip Island is one of the best races to watch. It's the one I look forward to. It never disappoints, seems to have the most overtakes in a typical race.

This reminds me of the Macau motorcycle grand prix. I have no idea how they can race a moto gp bike on these city courses will literaly no runoff areas. Seems to me like they want to compete with Isle of Man. I wouldn't be surprised if this gets cancelled and they either go back to Phillip...

Just renewed my Video Pass. But was really reluctant because I agree with the comment above. Hopefully there will be more challenges for first.

I tried the Leatt stuff once. I purchased their slip on knee protection. They feel cheap to me when compared to my Knox protection. Leatt seems more geared towards mountain biking or E Bike type of protection. Not sure how well they hold up to motorcycling. Take a look at Knox for the Knee...

I suppose that logic is even more applicable to motorcycles. The amount of time invested in keeping our bikes in perfect running shape. Then most of us just trade up after 4-5 years.

Oil is cheap , engine repairs are not. I have a 2020 Rav 4 Hybrid. Do my oil changes max 8,000 kms (5,000 miles) between 6-8 months intervals. The long duration oil changes noted in the manual is what the Toyota Engineers determined as the min required to keep the engine running without issues...

I was wondering when this all started. I recall not too long ago that as soon as you transfer the funds your balance owing should reflect it. Now when I log in two days later I see my credit available is lower by the same amount of the purchase even though I transferred the funds two days prior.

I was cross shopping that model when I purchased my Giant Fastroad AR. Although the one you are looking at seems an older model. If that is this price for a new old stock. Looks like an amazing deal. If I'm not mistaken thats a $1200 bike new? I would make sure the frame size fits you also. If...
