    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    no I do not do crossfit, I seem to agree with people on here about it (relatively skeptical view on it, okay at everything vs expert at one thing, speed emphasized over form). Good point Macs with speed; I've started lifting with 'control' in mind. This slowed me down a bit from where I was...

    Sportbikes are Not beginner Bikes

    the saying "go with what you know" can be applied to this thread. the idea behind this is that as motorcyclists we practise day in and day out in order to train our passive systems (systems that react without conscious thought; for example, breathing). we do this because if we get into a life...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    was wondering what everyones thoughts were on rep cadence (how quick you lift). Especially lifting for speed (all out) vs lifting for feel (slower, more controlled reps). Secondly, was wondering about the view on lifting until failure vs leaving one or two reps in reserve. Usually I lift for...

    BMW riders. Lee Parks Riding School. May 31, 2013

    took both level 1 and 2 last summer, plus I attended the skills day, plus plus I have signed up for both skills days this summer. In short, it changed the way I ride, and it is worth the money... forsure. You will ride home differently than when you rode in that's forsure!

    Can-Am Spyder...a motorcycle?

    I took one for a demo last season. Gunned it from a stop and the rear tire started spinning like no tomorrow, it's true that it takes some getting used to. Thing I didn't like was that it tracked like a car, aka it would follow dips in the road, I felt like I had to put constant pressure on...

    Two thumbs up for Otterbox...

    I have an otterbox on my galaxy s2 as well. It's bulky, but pretty much indestructable! I have no clue how yours broke. Alas, it's still good to know that their customer service is top notch. Go Otterbox!

    BAD REVIEW "Rosey Toes Motorcycles Inc"

    Had a break down on the highway and ended up towing the bike to Rosey's. Ended up needing a new stator. OTD it was $600 parts and labour and he had it done in 2-3days (delay in receiving parts). He's a good guy, pretty honest about everything but like others have said usually doesn't go above...

    cornering technique

    Might be the difference in handlebar positions. When I came off my ninja 500 and moved to my sv1000s with clip ons I remember having to put more pressure in order to turn. In reality it wasn't heavier steering, it was the fact that I was pushing down towards the ground instead of on a...

    Recommendation for tires pleaseeee

    I have the road 2's as well. Put them on after hearing all the "you only need sport touring tires on the street" etc from everyone. They were right lol Haven't slipped at all, feel very confident in the rain. Tires are actually built for slightly cooler temps. If you have any sense of smooth...

    super newbie on the road here

    Ive heard they can do this if you over far enough to the left. You could always stop in the right tire track thus blocking them from turning. Really up to you Sent from my GT-I9100M using Tapatalk 2
