LOL. I feel so old school rocking my Mivv's on my V2.

I've done all sorts of touring on my Tuono V2. I use a 52L Ventura tail pack and if I need more space, I have some smallish saddlebags + tank bag that I use. I have never considered getting hard luggage for this bike as the racks (ex, Givi) look atrocious when the bags are not on. Meanwhile...

May want to look into learning what blocking lane position is.

The exact same way any municipality cares about what you do with your yard or parking spot when living in a house. It's exactly the same idea. You can't do whatever you want in either case.

Just wanted to update this. I had a motorcycle trailer this weekend and using that was obviously a breeze. I didn't get a chance to have a look at the utility trailers to see what sort of tie downs spots they had, but I'll do so next time. Having said that, I can say that of the 4 straps that...

Thanks for the feedback folks. Looks like a no-go for me for this weekend, the only trailers u-haul still has available are too heavy for my tow vehicle. Having said that, I've got my eye on another date very soon so I'll be trying to rent a small trailer for then. I'll check back here with...

Hey man, nothing wrong with having multiple hobbies!

Hey folks, Did a quick search and didn't see any discussion regarding this, so... I know U-Haul has the lightweight motorcycle trailers, however, finding those is pretty hit and miss. Does anyone have experience trailering a track bike with either the 4' x 7' or 5' x 8' utility trailers? Do...

Man, you change hobbies like others change socks. Couple of years ago, photography, then jumping, now riding. Lol.

This will inevitably be breaking of the condo rules. You're not allowed to rent your spot to a non-resident. It's a security issue from the condo perspective as you grant building as well as parking access to a non-resident.

The reality is that there are entitled and ignorant road users period. I'm sure we all see that with car drivers, taxi drivers, bicyclists, and yes, many riders as well.

Ding ding ding! I bet you most people complaining about this parking commute into the city from the 905 and don't actually contribute tax dollars to this project. There are some North/Sound bicycle friendly paths that are necessary. There are way more east/west ones right now and it's just...

If you perform emergency braking with the front brake only while trying to swerve you'll go down even faster. The issue is that hard braking and turning don't mix. It's amazing how many people swear off using the rear brake instead of having it set up properly and learning to use it properly.

Re: TD MM gives a 2007-08 ZZR600 a "high performance" rating? Want $9000/year... My naked bike (insured with TD MM) being classed as a high performance bike, thereby being hit with a surcharge seems to indicate otherwise.

If only I had a dollar for every time a student reported that there was something mechanically wrong with a bike... Inevitably I would ride it and it would be perfectly fine. Pretty sure all the schools test rode the bikes every single weeks d during prep. I know we do.
