garys automotive on orenda does them for around 40 bucks. have done 2 certificiations with him

Just got back from getting my rear tire replaced from Adrian. As usual he goes the extra mile . He checked my rear drum brake and also noticed my splines needed lube and took care of it for me. I appreciate how it takes pics of the work he does on the bike. Definitely worth the drive to...

congrats! curious how many kilometers on that

thanks for the update glad to hear your trip was a safe one. the virago 250 / vstar 250 was a bike I was seriously contemplating on as my 2nd bike. At the time I was riding around on my tw200.

hi first off I have a 650 vstar. I find it has lots of power for anything I need whether its commuting to work or hitting the highway etc. Now as for your choices between the two. As has been said, you should check with your insurance company since this is your first bike. For me insurance on...
