Rip

I was in the similar situation as you, got rid of my s model 400 because it was too tall for me, picked up a older xl 250 then a nx 250, loved them both but they just didnt have enough power. I now have a Drz SM and I am very happy with it.

Picked up a 1985 Honda and called TD insurance to find out that they dont insure bikes that are 30 years or older, any suggestions off hand. Thanks

Unbelievable 42.00 shipped, Great find Guys. Thanks

I have to get a battery for my Drz and Im not sure where to go get one. Ive checked out Royal Distributing and the price was about 100 bucks, seems pretty pricey, is that normal.

Your map show Milton, Ive actually ridden in there before, nothing much just a few trails. Your article says it was in Bradford, just saying.

Too Funny, I was in there last week and same thing happened to me. I only got about 500 yards in and it took me almost an hour to turn around and get out. I cant figure out why my pics wont post. http://www.jeepkings.ca/forums/showthread.php?132183-Venturing-alone

I have 2 helmets, one is the Fly Trekker which is great for off road and and cruising the streets at low speeds but at higher speeds its not very good especially if its windy which seems to be all the time. The visor really grabs the air putting a big strain on your neck so for that reason I...

Try calling TD they insure my DRZ 400 which is street plated ($350 per year) as well as my 700cc ATV for about the same price.

At first I thought suspension but after riding trails after it rained the more Im thinking it has to be the tires, it just doesnt get any traction. The fact that these tires were sooo expensive and that they are Pirelli is dissapointing, not to mention the rear tire is half wornout with just...

I have these tires on my Drz400 and I believe that these tires maybe the reason my bike handles so poorly on trails. The bike just feels unstable, frankly it scares me especially when its wet out. I recently rode a buddy cr250 with offroad tires and it was unbelievable the differance in handling...

You know if I were to just throw it in the shed and not think twice about it nothing would happen, now that Im actually putting some thought into it I bet the mice will be all over it.

(I would NOT store my bike in a mouse infested shed. Seen too many wiring harnesses eaten through. Had a friend who had to sell her bike when she gave up on the rewire......) My Buddy had his 71 Cutlass Convertable stored in a 53ft Container on his property, racoons got in through the...

Oooo interesting, I will do that for sure. I like the peppermint oil idea too. Thanks Guys

Im getting ready to store my bike in my shed which is cold, damp and full of rat mouse crap. Im a little reluctant to do it but at least its shelterd. Any tips or tricks I should know, Im going to take the seat off and remove the airfilter and tape up the carb. I have a bike cover but not sure...
