I understand what your saying 100% as I too had those thoughts and sometimes still do but man you cant stop living either. I have my life insurance topped to the extreme to be sure my wife and kids are taken care of should something happen. I work shift work, drive allot at night in bad weather...

Man some of you's really left your balls at the alter! My wife would never tell me to stop riding,what kind of vehicle to drive etc etc. If anything she told me to get back into it as she knew how much it meant to me. Marriage is a compromise, I cant stand when I hear men say "happy wife happy...

Took an 8 year break in the mid 2000s to get married and start a family, always owned 750s and 1000s sport bikes .While I was on that break I did some dirbiking in between and absolutely loved it but got boring going alone. Decided to ride street again in 2014,did the cruiser thing but it wasn't...

I always keep a few baited mouse traps in the garage and basement, I personally never had a problem with them but I have heard from others that have. Like mentioned, its cheap insurance and stick a bunch of scented dryer sheets all over your bike in winter. In another month or so they will start...

Rode SS from my late teens to my early 30s. Took some time off to start a family and then bought a cruiser when I turned 40 but it didn't do it for me,sold it and bought a brand new FZ09,rode that for a few years and now in my mid 40s I bought another SS. I won't be keeping this bike to much...

If your coming off a gix 750 i'd go for a fz09,mt10 or a gsx1k Having every kinda of bike (over 20) my fz09 is in the top 3 of most favorite,I threw an exhaust and had the ecu flashed which made it even more fun! The looks are not for everyone but everywhere I go,I get asked about it(in a good...

Add Barrie to that list. $450k would get you a mansion up here 10-15yrs ago now it will get you a shack that needs allot of work.

I moved from Woodbridge to Barrie 10 yrs ago and I can tell you its no better up here with all of the GTA ppl moving up here and it only going to get worse with the land Barrie anexed(sp?) from Inisfill,oh and dont forget the cottagers on the weekend. Fortunately for me I dont have have to...

$680 a year for full coverage on my 15 FZ09 with Intact through Mantha. It is classified as a sport

Bought one brand new in 1990 for $1200 and rode it everywhere for 2 years. Now im looking for a clean one now for my "man cave" and cant belive the prices there going for!

Only Suomy for me. Others have never fit me well,even Shoei and Arai

How is an F4i any better then a FZ09? Before you come up with a lame excuse,I bought one brand new back in 01. I've owned over 20 bikes from SS's to cruisers to dirtbikes and let me tell you my FZ09 is up there in the top 3 of fun jack of all trades bikes.Even now that im in my 40's with a bad...

Rode SS bikes my whole life but as I got older aches and pains set in,bought a new 15 FZ09 last year and I absolutely love this bike! Out of the 20 or so bikes i've owned this one falls in the top 3,it dose everything I need it too and more. ZX600 nailed all the pros and cons dead on,rear...

Got mine on Airport Rd too in 1990,I was 16 and got my licence with my YSR50 and done in less then 10 minutes :D

I keep it in B mode most of the time in urban riding and its still fun to ride without the jerky throttle,out on the back roads its on A mode all the time,words cant decribe the bike in A mode :D Suspension if your really aggressive is a simple fix. I had my fun with SS bikes when I was younger...
