    If you buy an old bike join a local CVMG (Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group), if you've got an old bike the members will be a huge source of information and/or parts.

    Hell just froze. Heading to Harley-Davidson dealership tonight.

    As a person who has lost a few friends to the dark side be careful, this road you are heading down can be an expensive one. Do you look good in orange and black? I hope you do because your wardrobe is about to change, out with everything, in with HD branded wear ( my one bud even has HD pj's)...

    Do you replace your battery before it dies or wait until it dies to replace it?

    If you're talking about my SRAD I rewired that plug a few years ago when my bike died on a back road 300km west of Sault Ste Marie.

    Do you replace your battery before it dies or wait until it dies to replace it?

    My 98 gixxer has 85,000 on it, with the original battery, buy one when you need one.

    My last time shopping at rider's choice....

    RC usually has a mountain of tires out back, besides if having one in stock a few days later could be a problem you would think a smart business owner would tell his customer "I've only got a few left, give me a few bucks to hold one for you".

    High mileage on a Ninja 250

    It never ceases to amaze me how many people in our cycle community think that anything over 20,000 km is high mileage. When I think high mileage I think 100,000 +. If you consider a normal riding season being between 12,000 and 25,000 km, which I do, we should all be scraping our bikes every 2...

    Good cop story

    I've got a good cop story for ya. Yesterday, my 16 year is coming home with my street legal XR from his girlfriends house. He's got his M1 but he's not insured to ride it on the road yet. To get home he has to push it a couple of km through subdivisions till he gets to an orchard after that...

    How would you quit your job?

    Back in the 90's I was offered a better job than the one I had, I went to my boss and told him, he said he couldn't offer me what the other company had offered. When I left I said "no hard feelings?", he replied "If I'd heard you didn't take the job I'd have thought less of you". Ten years...

    Why aren't ATVs allow on the streets?

    Did they reverse that law? A few years ago the government changed the law that would let you convert off road bikes (green plate) to on road (blue plate). Last I heard you could only blue plate a bike that was street legal from the manufacturer. Any bikes converted before the law was changed...
