    Try the Fergusson dealership.

    Not worth the risk

    Yep. They do things like stop, right in the middle of the road, on the other side of a blind curve to look at the scenery etc. It's happened to me in Ontario at least a couple of times.

    Not worth the risk

    I find that holiday weekends are often dangerous and tourists are untrustworthy.

    Rob Harris... Ten Years After

    I will never forget Rob. I remember when he found out that the ZX7 he had indirectly sold me had a front brake failure, he was right on me to make sure that I was OK and blamed himself for it. I got to ride with him and hang out a little bit with him, Larry and Steve on occasion. I was...

    Highway 38 near Kingston roadworks near Murvale

    Being me, I passed three cars doing 30kph through there last night and went through at 80kph in my truck. Way less bumpy. Riding most motorcycles through here would SUCK.

    Elgin Loop

    Yeah, it's OK. I had the Porsche up there last fall, the new pavement is great. I play there with a trio on odd occasions. Live music is a staple there.

    Elgin Loop

    If it was me, I'd skip Unity Road and go up through Wilton on Wilton Road to Harrowsmith, north to just north of Hartington at the police station on Hinchinbrooke to Desert Lake road, turn East to go to Sydenham, then to Ruttledge and then to Perth Road. A slight modification of routes that I...

    How would you strap down a Suzuki Burgman on a trailer?

    My ex-wife had one. I used bar straps, at least four ratchet straps and a strongly worded warning to the gods of fate.

    Who's riding?

    Not today. Rode into town to have some breakfast with my buds.............. and it was a blizzard.

    I've got a secret weapon...

    He's ex-special forces, so he's built tough. But he wasn't unscathed, it took therapy to sort his back out as he landed right on it. The bike needed some love but it was still barely rideable at the track. Not sure what it cost, but he had to toss his helmet too.

    I've got a secret weapon...

    Don't do what my buddy did trying to beat my 911. He just couldn't get his H2 lower than 10.8 and so he turned off all the safety features. A supercharged 1000cc engine isn't very sympathetic, as it happens.

    Here we go again......

    No, they did not.

    A little motorcycle therapy if you're going through some hard times

    I'm the one that left and it took me more than 5 years before I was 'right' with things. Since then I've told a couple of people that, if you can't hack 5 years of brain @#$& then consider if it's really worth the costs.

    I'd have probably hit him. On purpose.
