You mean these? They are staying at a nearby AirBnB. New York plates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wha...? My wife and I bought a new car (Hyundai) 3 years ago and at no point before or during the negotiation did they ask for a credit card or other form of deposit. Her parents bought another car (Toyota) a year later and it didn't come up then either. If any dealer presumed to ask for money...

Same here -- I'm a lanky guy, so I appreciated the taller bars and higher seating position of the CB500x. I also liked the matte black finish on the X. However, the F was also pretty comfortable (the whole series has decent ergos for tall guys) and I don't think you could go wrong with it...

I have the same bike and really enjoy it. Actually just got back from a two hour ride from Toronto to Oakville and back. Mostly Lakeshore and Dundas St., but did a brief stint on the QEW...good times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First ride on the new bike today, and it was a thrill. Bike was delivered around 1:30 today. Dithered for about an hour before getting out there. Does the bike have tires? Check. Are they inflated? Check. Is the oil present? Check. All right. Time to get my gear. Crap. Why does my face shield...

Thanks all for the welcome & advice. I picked up Ienatsch's Sport Riding Techniques - I'll have to check out Twist of the Wrist 2! Riding weather can't arrive soon enough... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Town Moto (downtown) carries them. It's a small shop so you'd probably want to call to make sure they're in stock. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
