I'm looking to sell my Ninja. I've owned since 2012. 78000km(approx). It was my daily driver from 2012 to 2016. After that it was used sporadically until 2019 and was my daily from May until November. Coldest it started in was -20C. It will be coming with a Princess Auto roll-on front wheel...

Side stand looks faily untouched, but will have a look. Correct. Can get it into 1st and then back to neutral.. A quick search shows there might be a clutch safety switch. Hopefully thats the only switch. Not yet, will take a look tomorrow.

Hello all, Recently got a lowsided, left side, Triumph T120. Will not start. Press the starter button and nothing, no sound of the starter. The lowside broke the tip of the shifter off. Battery powers the lights and turns on the gauges. There is what looks like an engine light on the speedo...

I have had luck with Held, although I'm slightly bigger than you at 5'8" and 160. I'm a small in Joe Rocket and Olympia, but a medium in Held and Alpinestars. I currently have a Held Tropic jacket.

You could always meet it half way like Top Gear did.. http://www.ausmotive.com/images/topgear/12x08-Vietnam-01.jpg

Is rounding acceptable or does it have to be to the first decimal?

Not trying to force you to answer, but service doesn't get better if no one knows it's bad. Biggest pet peeve about motorcycling and retail(products mostly, but places too) is a lack of reviews. Technically, if you're just starting out, your call-outs are as a consumer. Maybe by mid-season you...

Does something like "Hola" count?

Thank you for the replies. I finally have a day off, so I will be trying to correct it/possibly order parts tomorrow. Is it going to be possible without a front stand/chock? Will I have to loosen both triple clamps?

Pinlock availability is somewhat limited. Pinlock has 9 brands that they "cover" http://www.pinlock.nl/motor/my-helmet/?page=brands&c=2 . There is another company that makes a visor insert that sort of "glues" in. http://www.revzilla.com/product/fog-city-pro-shield I have experience with both...

I'm trying to find out what I need to do. I took the bike to work as normal Tuesday morning. Tuesday night as I was leaving, I noticed my handlebars were skewed slightly to the right; having them centred makes the bike steer to the left. I notice yesterday that my front fender is now rubbing...

When I first applied for my license, at 16, about 16 years ago, I misunderstood the seizure question. Took 2ish years to before I could re-apply. Thankfully have not had a hypoglycemic seizure since high school. As MacDoc said, the tech is better; and I've learned my signs. My dad saw a woman...

The seal is silicon I believe. Can be removed and is useful for cleaning it. There is another version that glues in, and gives a better anti-fog, but is pretty much what you said, a 1 time install. The pinlock lens is also more pliable and not nearly as 'tough' as the actual shield...

My comments all were regarding the video of the BMW trial that Toronto police had done. They had appropriate markings on their jackets, bikes, and, I think, pants also. Like I said, it would probably be beneficial to have something on the helmets, since they had no identification on them.
