The PR2 is being phased out and there are only select sizes left. It was a great budget option that looked like a sport bike tire, but gave great mileage, wet traction, warm up time and decent dry weather traction. The PR3 has taken all the good qualities of the PR2 and expanded on them, the...

What you have described is not a tire issue, it's rider error and throwing money at tires will not solve it. Target fixation is the number on reason for novice crashes both on and off the track (panicking and abruptly grabbing front brake on corner entry follows closely behind). The sooner you...

I have a few cars insured with Hagerty for a number of years. The process to sign up is pretty easy. No appraisals just send them a picture of the car. I can't remember exactly what was involved but I remember being in disbelief about how easy it was. I like the agreed coverage so there is...

You would be better off comparing the same tire to get an accurate comparison. Michelin PP3 180/55 Petes: PP3 is $151.95 plus shipping to the GTA is $16.52. total = $168.47 Speedworx : is $160 including OTSF (which is supposed to be paid on all tires being shipped to Ontario). No waiting...

I haven't ridden the Scrambler (I don't think too many people on this site have yet) so I can't really comment to much about how one rides. I have ridden many Moto Guzzi and as much as I love them, and have even built a few pretty snazzy ones, I don't think I could buy one to ride regularly...

The best piece of kit I've come across to prevent/minimize impact to your hip/tailbone are Knox cross shorts. The standard kidney shaped foam inserts that you find in pants and race suits can only provide minimal protection. If they were any thicker they would hinder mobility. Where the cross...

Racer5 still does SOAR endurance programs and they are hugely popular. What we started doing last year is only putting dates that historically have better weather on the schedule. All the other dates are on a demand basis. With the VIP trackdays, Dedicated Racer5 weekends at GBM and VIP weekends...

**Disclaimer - As its been stated already, tire/oil threads on forums will vary in answers as they are all opinions based on peoples experiences, so take them all (including mine) with a grain of salt. ;) The Q3 (or any of the current crop of Hypersport street tires - PP3, S20, etc) will...

SOLD! Thanks for looking! Fawaz

Selling a CBR250 that I bought for a relative in the spring, they never ended up getting their Motorcycle license so the bike was never used. I would rather sell it and have someone else enjoy this great bike than have it continue to collect dust, however please keep in mind that I do not need...

The new mandate at Mosport is that motorcycle events must be run with an actual city EMS not just event paramedics. This is a vast improvement overa track ambulance because if there is a critical life threatening condition, they don't have to wait 20-30 minutes for a road ambulance to show up...

Uhmm ...that was like $35k ago when it was almost stock. More like 1100hp and 2200ft/lb nowadays since I had it detuned for reliability reasons. Lol

My post was for the gentleman looking for the PP3s. If your email was from 4/17 (2009 VFR 800) we did reply to your email as well as advise you of what tires we recommended for your bike. We also recommended against you running a hyper sport tire in the front in combination with a sport touring...

I'm the furthest thing from a paint guy you could imagine so please take my input with a grain of salt. I have a couple set if race bodywork painted in imron black a week and send customer bike parts out fir paint, that's the extent of my knowledge. I was always told that black was black for...
