    Front stand or no stand?

    A front stand, one that picks the bike up from the steering stem, is a really great investment. When you buy new tires next year, are you going to take the tires and the bike to a shop and have them remove the wheels to mount the tires or will you take the wheels off yourself and just bring...

    Lot of 90 motorcycles includes various tools and spare parts

    Looks like all the bikes are from Sheridan College. Did they close their motorcycle program or are they just refreshing their bikes for next year?

    getting paperwork in order..

    I can't help with your paperwork, but my first bike was an '81 XS400. It was so easy to ride! Hope you get it on the road and enjoy it.

    Police Cruiser Rams Bike

    Earlier in the video you can see the cruiser drifting over the dashed lane marking. He was clearly not paying attention. I don't understand why he doesn't get charged! And did he even bother to lend assistance to the couple he hit? He checked out his car, put out a fire...asked the couple, "You...

    Cops Posing as Beggars

    Awesome! I wish Peel would start doing that in Brampton! Oh, and enforcing full stops at stop signs, not driving through them at 40 km/h!

    Car help please :(

    Precision Tuning is a really great shop. If you need work done, go see Perjad. He doesn't do alignments, but he knows your VW. Give him a call or drop by his shop (Keele/Langstaff) and see what he thinks. He's also a fellow rider.

    Breaking a riding rule

    For me, when I get on the bike, I forget about everything. That's one of the main reasons I commute to work. I find that it really helps me to leave work at work. By the time I get home, I feel refreshed again. Riding definitely helps to clear my head.

    Move or euthanize?

    Has everyone heard about the letter that was given to a grand mother with an autistic grandson? This happened in Newcastle. I don't know if it's criminal, but I think this kind of treatment is mean and unacceptable. I wonder if the woman that wrote it will ever step up and own it...

    no need to ask for forgiveness

    That's how I prefer to shop too. I hate having sales people hovering over you, especially when I'm trying to discuss a product with my wife and they're listening in on the entire conversation. I'd rather have to go up to someone and say, "Hey, I need some help." If you are talking about...

    Two Wheel overly picky on safety?

    I recently had a bike safetied at Brampton Powersports which I failed the first time. They let me take the bike home to fix the problem and they told me that I had two weeks to get the bike back to them before I had to pay for another safety inspection.

    Anyone here know a great repair shop in Brampton?

    In my mind you've already gotten the three best answers: a) do it yourself for all the things that you're comfortable with, b) PM frekeyguy for things that you don't want to do yourself (he's really good at changing tires!) and c) Brampton Powersports for all your parts needs (they don't sell...

    Want to build/renovate a proper garage

    If you're going to do anything, you might as well do a good job (think about resale at some point in the future) - to me that means insulation and drywall. I wouldn't get hung up in the details though. That'll only make a relatively simple job way more difficult. Take everything one step at a...

    Grips for Comfort and Safety!

    I've got ProGrips - the GP Gel model - on my bike. You can have them ordered from any bike shop in GTA. They're comfortable and have withstood everything for the past year or so. I just didn't really care for the logo too much so I put them on with the logo facing down. I've never had to look at...

    Just sold, Gotta buy. Question MTO

    This is how it's done, but I believe the temp sticker is only good for 7 days and you can have a maximum of 2. I believe they don't have to be two consecutive periods of 7 days. You can have a gap in between. So, get insurance, go to MTO, provide proof of insurance and transfer ownership. Buy...
