    Thoughts on this tire changing setup?

    Make sure it has the plastic covers where it holds the rim or you will scratch your rim. Had a friend here the other day with a no mar unit and it went into the trailer hitch on his truck. Pretty cool. Now that's portable.

    Princess Auto blue wheel chock (the good one) on sale for $44.44

    For the money it is a great stand but doesn't grip the front wheel as well as the baxley. A friend bought one and that's what we discovered. However we added a couple of washers on the pivot bolts and the it gripped the tire much better. This was on a sport bike so maybe on a bike with a fatter...

    I think I heard that the KSR group had some weekend dates at Grand Bend this year but I can't confirm that. It may be on their facebook page.

    Where to buy aftermarket parts

    You can also try Bayside performance. He is out in BC. Unfortunately sometimes parts are easier to find in the US and even with exchange sometimes cheaper. Only issue now is getting the parts here. I always shipped to my US address but now I cant cross the border to get them. Shipping within the...

    That's a pretty sweet bike and I am a Suzuki guy but also own a Tuono factory and its hard to measure up to the character of the Tuono.

    "Oro Station" new track in Oro-Medonte?

    In the article on the ground breaking it states that this is strictly a testing facility and not a spectator based facility. Its primary use is for testing and development. It doesn't sound like there is going to be racing or motorcycle lapping there.

    Bike meets

    There is a weekly meet by the Timmies on Dundas just east of the 403. We were there a couple weeks ago and there seemed to be quite a few bikes and some cars. We are planning to ride there this Thursday from Niagara.

    Best Quickshifter

    I would agree with Brian. If you have a system on your bike that will accept a quick shifter use it. All these aftermarket electronics can lead to more things that can fail on you and can make it harder to diagnose. I have an annitori and it has worked well. I replaced my original annitori which...

He said he fills it once a month and it can pull like 7000 lbs. I think if i was going to get a small pick up...

    TMP vs. SMP

    I was there on Sunday running in the red group. I had no issues with anyone and lots of riders passed me everywhere which is allowed in the group. Yellow and green group can always be sketchy at times. I'm not crazy about TMP for a lot of the reasons listed in this thread. For me it's a test and...
