    Cost of Insurance for motorbikes!!

    Snowfall isn't really the deciding factor for me; it's more the salt on the road. There are plenty of days during the winter that the roads are clear enough (of snow) to ride on, but the inch of salt makes it pretty unappealing.

    Can Am Spyder

    My neighbour got one (whatever the smaller one is), and I rode it home from the dealer for her. I hated it due to: odd ergo and riding position - left my wrists sore after a 15 min ride felt jittery - even with the amount of power it has, i would not want this thing on the highway always felt...

    Is it really necessary to replace your helmet every 3-5 years?

    Just spoke to an Arai dealer. Because they are hand laid fiberglass and 1 piece membrane, they are 7-11 years. Sounds better to me.

    Is it really necessary to replace your helmet every 3-5 years?

    Styrofoam liner absorbs your dirty thoughts. That's about as valid as anything else i've read, and since styrofoam takes 1+ million years to biodegrade, that's a lot of dirty thoughts in landfill.

    Is it really necessary to replace your helmet every 3-5 years?
