So I want to take a ride this weekend. What's a good burger joint with a decent ride, say about an hour or so from Mid-Town Toronto?

Burger Shack anyone? Maybe the burgers aren't that great since nobody else mentioned it, but I've been eating them my whole life and I'll rep that place forever haha Eglinton and Oriole Parkway (Just west of Yonge and Eglinton)

I agree. Plenty of riding days left. Put on long johns and snowboard socks. The fun outweighs the cold!

Team Lotus|Renault GP is running this paint scheme on their F1 cars for this year. They look awesome; saw them at the Montreal Grand Prix this year. It would be really cool if other F1 inspired bikes hit the market. I love the McLaren|Mercedes and Mercedes GP teams with their bright silver...

Buell 1125 CR would be a bit of an oddball choice to throw into the mix.

Agreed. That stuff smells like fuel mixed with mr. clean.

I only rode around the city for a bit. Bought a new tablet PC at Staples...I guess I'm already gearing up for winter. On another note, a friend texted me and said he saw the cops chasing a bike down Yonge St. south of Davisville. He said it was flying along and the cops were probably doing...

Reminds me of that Simpsons episode where Homer designs a car.

I rarely filter or lane split. If traffic is stopped, I treat myself like any other vehicle and sit there baking in the heat waiting for something to move. But once traffic is moving I find that I can maneouver through it fairly well by just changing lanes back and forth and weaving my way...

I'm kind of the same way. I recently picked up a Scala headset and it has an FM tuner. It's fun to have sound sometimes, but I find that I end up blanking it out once I concentrate on riding. At the stop light it's good to listen to, but sometimes if someone tries to talk to you you can't...

I'd be looking in the 2003 - 2005 1000cc range of bikes. They're generally a little more relaxed than a 600 and the power delivery would be better suited for a long commute or weekend trip. Also better for 2-up with the added power. I like the idea of a 954. Or if you're stuck on a 600...

I have a 2008 R6 and I find it's pretty compromising in seating position. The seat tilts upwards towards the back where other 600's tend to have a flatter seat. I've ridden a 2009 ZX-6R and it did have more of a mid-range punch. It also was a bit more relaxed in seating position - it felt...

:lmao: Dude that sucks. But look on the bright side - you're going to be really careful with the next one! Try Kahuna or GP Bikes. I htink they have some one for a decent price.

Why not an R1 ?

I was looking into the Alpinestars ones that are a full vest with shoulder armour and a removable back protector. They also come with full arm protection as well if you want to get it. I thought it would be good to have to wear under a long sleeve shirt or a hoody. And the back protector is...
