LOL to this! When I bought my new sv650, long story short, took nearly 2 months for me to finally lay my hands on it ONLY after going in and making a scene about it and taking it to their sales manager. The owner then came out and proceeded to try and push me into buying another bike simply...

I went to WV twice last year, second time I took the i90/i79. Left at 6am, didn't hit traffic until the pittsburg area. Made it into WV in six hours or so with a few stops in there. Had all afternoon and evening for riding the twisties... I would definitely do it again, sure beats riding...

Am I missing something or does that bike have two levers?

Re: GTAM at the Spring Motorcycle Show!! So this is like the January show, only two months later?

I bought this one a couple years ago when it was on sale, pos... I put it in the tail of my bike thinking it would be fine there, vibrations killed it after one ride and it never turned on again. I have this one: http://www.oxprod.com/index.php?pg=3&action=dept&id=136&pid=158&p= You can...

+1 for Tony at BSR. Just email him what you want and he will set you up. I personally ordered a 525 chain, sprockets and the Motion Pro chain breaker from him last year for my sv650 and no complaints. The chain breaker was expensive, but didn't break a sweat getting the old chain off.

rofl, Americans and their guns! The dude washing his hands in urine is great though.

You guys with Nexus cards crossing the border on your bikes... I just received mine so haven't used it yet, but I'm curious, do you stop and present it to the camera before going to the booth, or just ride straight to the booth. Either nexus or non-nexus lanes.

For the price to camp a night in the states why not pay it, although if the park were full I could see this being a better option then finding some hotel/motel to spend the night. Never really considered it myself, though I do know that Walmart permits people to sleep in their parking lots in...

LOL! You just made my day, thank you! DrSavant: Post a picture of the dangerously bent swing arm spool so that we may help you better.

There is more to a motorcycle then 0-100kph... If thats all you care about then sure, a supersport is an upgrade. $2500 for a supersport for a 21 year old seems cheap, is that just liability?

The sv650 is considered 'sport touring' instead of 'sport' which would bump the premium up a lot. Funny that you consider the sv650 a downgrade, lol. Unless you're going to the track it will most likely be an upgrade compared to the 600 for town riding and what not. Low end power like you...

I was out for four hours today, went along the shore of Lake Erie from Port Colborne to Port Dover. I only saw 5 motorcycles on the road! No riders in Dover at all. Weather was actually pretty good, a drizzle in Dover but nothing more.

Nice, thanks for these. "Lets the good times roll." lol!

Hope you heal up good. Its amazing how many people do this. I personally know a few guys who do this and I just shake my head. I also know someone else who had his hand mangled up from doing this, seems like people have to learn the hard way unfortunately.
