    HighSide at Mosport - Aug 17

    Glad to see the crash not hurting you bad. I've been to the track for few years, and there are always some mysterious corner spots here or there causing more crashes than the others (some ppm said that might caused by some supercars when they tearing out the asphalt accelerating out of corner)...

    What Inspired You to Ride?

    Started my riding when I was in my mid-30s. For many times I saw a house in mid-town Toronto close to where I worked always has three BMW R1200GSs lines up in their front yard, they looks so cool and manly. I decided to have one, even I just got my M2 license. That bike is too tall for me to...

    Not so safe racing suits and gears

    Thanks Bickle Racing for the answer and everyone above with positive feedback. When I crazhed, it wasn't fast comparing to most corners in Mosport, maybe only at 70khp. I already relaxed my body and muscles as possible. Yep its the height and your body weight plus speed broke my bones. I wish I...

    Not so safe racing suits and gears

    Lol, that's a good suit. I guess most of the superbike racers must have their custom suits with lots of paddings and armours underneath, but you just don't see them. Where the most common armours and paddings do they insert there?

    I guess you mention something look like this www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/knox-defender-mk3-shorts good thing to have, never seen before. My tour bike pants have some kind of this padding seamed inside it.

    I double checked my pretty wrecked suit, is Carver not the new atem. I had it for 4 years, save me from a lowed side on the left, that time didn't touch my knees or head luckily.

    Not so safe racing suits and gears

    I see what you mean. Nothing is perfect protection for anything, especially interm of accidents. But i'm not again Alpinestar, but I found that they didn't do enough comparing others in the price sense. For example, I had a pair of nitro racing boots for few years, costs me less than a hundred...

    Not so safe racing suits and gears

    Thanks for the feedback. First of all, I did not remove anything out of the suit as originally brand new bought. Instead I had everything I could buy for the insert, like their backpack and chest pad etc. I just don't understand why even my touring pants have side hip protection, but not found...

    Thanks for the understanding, it's suck to ask why the big brands don't do it well for the consideration of safety of racing enthusiasts. When you spent so much $ and time on this sports, and so little thing can kill you.

    Not so safe racing suits and gears

    I got an accident in the race track early July, it's highsided in the corner. My Alpinestar one-piece racing suits(atem) and brand new smx-6 vented boot did not help. I got kneecaps frature and did 1 left foot toe bone too. I stayed in hospital for 2 weeks because of that. This made me think why...

    Calabogie this Weekend

    Best and most honest advise I ever heard and should have had if i could have had before my accident. I was with another trackday organization early July, I was in the intermedia group in the 2nd day. And I think I was in the upper pack of the group and over confident that in the first session...
