It is pretty simple. Moto GP, World Superbikes or whatever class you are racing in. There is a decending point scale for whatever position you come in in each race like you posted above. At the end of the season whoever has the most points wins. Example: Moto GP Points Riders and...

Yeah the cruiser in behind you in the pic is doing a big no no at the Dragon. Stay on your side of the yellow line!!!

All I know was when I was a senior instructor and examiner for the Gearing Up program we were told to instruct students that passed and were upgrading to their M2 that the alcohol restriction applied in all motor vehicles they operated until they obtained their full M.

Roll up in a ball, cry myself to sleep and try to hibernate until spring. Then go to the bike show in January to make me feel even worse about not being able to ride.

Also if you did take the course even if you had an M2 you had to pass the final test in order to receive the certificate proving you took the course

When I was an instructor we would ask if the student had riding experience and try to put them into groups that had similar riding experience.

I have ridden everything over my 40 years riding. Did the cruisers and it killed my butt and back. Now I ride naked sports bikes and standards. The only reason I see for riding a cruiser is that is what you think looks cool. Otherwise a standard or sport standard in my opinion is the bike to...

Well I can't complain about Fortnine. They sent me the wrong brake pads. Shipped back and was given a $25 off coupon to re-order the pads so they could send the correct ones. I also can't blame small companies for being wary of customer returns as many customers lie through their teeth to...

Try contacting Besteem directly and let them know how their distributor is dealing with the issue.

I regularly transfer Quebec vehicles to Ontario. Signed Quebec ownership, safety if you want it plated in hand and you transfer it at any Ontario MTO office. Make sure you have a bill of sale for the transaction too.

Make sure that when stopping you are in 1st gear when you come to a complete stop. You don't want to be fumbling at the stop trying to get into 1st or stalling trying to take off and you were not in 1st. Also the transmission on a motorcycle shifts between gears far easier when the bike is in...

Just remember if you do lock up the rear just continue braking and ride it out, If you are fishtailing a bit and you suddenly let go of the rear brake your back tire will hook up and straighten and could cause you to have a nasty high side.

Doubtful you will need any with a pad change. When you remove the old pads and push the caliper pistons back in the fluid level will go up. What you need to watch is as you push the pistons back in is that the fluid does not overflow. If you or someone previously added fluid as the pads wore...

Well that is the difference between 35 million people and over 300 million people. More people in U.S. means better selection. We have a 5 month riding season and far less bikes on the road so we will never have the stock and distribution advantage that south of the border has,
