    GP Sales

    How's your 998 Relax. Checked mine over today. I have new belts to put on not sure if I want to tackle this myself, have you done them before. I'm ashamed to say that's the one thing I haven't done myself on the 998 over the years.

    GP Sales

    Not uncommon for Jerry to email you directly about a bike sale from my experience. Nice person and obviously doing a lot right he has the monopoly in the GTA I believe and its wonderful to watch him grow over the years. I've bought a few bikes from him but when I pop in there he doesn't really...

    Calling all ballers

    I remember many many years ago I was parked outside Fairview mall just getting on my bike and this young man ran up to me and said “that bike is gangster” at the time I wasn’t sure whether that was a complement or an insult.

    Are you old enough to remember these motorcycle shops in To?

    Yes Parker Brothers I bought my 2007 KTM 990 Superduke there and McBrides I bought my fireblade back there in the day. I remember Ontario Honda on Queen west too. The old building and sign for Ontario Cycle Salvage is still there too on Kingston Road not that I ever shopped there.

    Shoei X-FIFTEEN / RF1400

    I’m in the market for a new helmet since my Schuberth SR1 I’ve had since before they were even available in North America. I tried on the new x-fifteen last week and it was super comfortable with great visibility, obviously didn’t get to test it out on the road. Doubtful but anyone have this...

    Where to buy accessories/parts

    I know you said you like to see products in person but very few dealers have stock these days of quality products.

    Real or not real that is the question :-)

    So I haven't been on here in a while but I posted a wanted Ad looking for a part for my 998. On Sept 8th I got this message on GTA then over a week later I get this text. Checking the account the person created the account on the 8th and hasn't logged on since. I asked for a contact name and...

    Guzzi Popularity

    Sport Bike Insurance -- Who are you insured with? How much do you pay?

    $1300 for my 998 and $1400 for my 1199s. I have my bike, home, car and life insurance all over the place hence not the greatest rates

    Sport Bike Insurance -- Who are you insured with? How much do you pay?

    Damn that’s a great rate. For me 40+ years riding experience no claims or tickets and I pay a lot More than that. My 998 is through Intact and 1199s TD.

    What a responsible, humble and wise response. Refreshing.

    Bike evaluation

    As people have mentioned wait for the spring. Put the standard parts back on and offer the aftermarket stuff as extra or sell separately. Contrary to popular belief just because someone spends a lot of money on after market stuff unfortunately that doesn’t translate into the bike worth more.
