    No more Wednesday t&t. Friday, Saturday and Sunday as well as all holidays. I've never been to an event where they didn't also run a t&t, no matter how big. if you go on an event weekend it's also an idea to run in bike and sled, then get in some testing after you get knocked out. There's also...

    Brakes - whats required

    Many don't. Mine does have a rear and I won't pull it. He asked if he would have trouble at tech, just answering that. The intensity of tech tends to vary significantly based on the impression the rider makes.

    You're fine as you are. Many of the truly fast bikes (175 mph and over) are running one disc

    Scissor jack under the pan and strap the other end of the bike. Works for pulling forks or swingarm. Princess Auto chainfall from the garage ceiling is also exceptionally helpful when doing motor swaps alone. ie- pull front end, lower bike onto pan, remove engine bolts, lift front of bike off...

    Clayton Rivet death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation.

    Re: Claton Rivert death and Questions Swirl around SIU investigation. I'll be as diplomatic as possible. You can't understand because you're either blinded by grief or simply refuse to accept the obvious. Your friend was going twice the limit. He made this choice, no one else. A police...

    Cayuga still under construction?

    Stole bikes on Kijiji

    Make sure the number on the frame matches the engine VIN. Not so much. Engine case numbers are not matched to vin on most brands.

    A wild idea to protect bikes in a condo

    OP, sounds like a good idea. There are a few flaws. The first is parking. Until a rider actually purchases or rents a spot specifically for his bike, that vehicle doesn't exist from a legal perspective. Secondly, your typical condo only has, at best, 1 or 2 bikes for every 100 suites. Its...

    TWO TYPES OF RIDERS - the kind that's been down, and the kind that's goin' down!?????

    Funny this topic comes up today, a year ago tonite I was airlifted to a trauma center in New Jersey after my first crash. I'd been riding off and on for 25 years at that point. The thing is, the only reason I didn't crash sooner is cause I'm lucky as hell. Should have crashed from my own...

    Looking for the smoothest parking lots in the GTA - spring '14

    There is a virgin lot on Cherry St, north of lakeshore. It's prepped for the Pan Am Games, private land, not secured or patrolled. Keep it low key and you can play there all day.
