    It's Electric NOT Hydro

    Right. What I meant to say. So I'll take a Kleenex if it's all you got.

    It's Electric NOT Hydro

    Or can it be the simple fact that the company that controls the electricity is called Hydro? Now pass me a tissue...

    caa reps at the bike show(s) - contact info?

    You have to make sure you have CAA Plus for the motorcycle coverage. I've used it once for a tow - a whole flatbed for my wee ride. My girlfriend used it a few times: locked keys in the car, ran out of gas. You know, girly stuff. Anyway, always prompt and good service.

    Sidi Crossfire vs. Alpinestars Tech 3 vs. Salomon Quest

    I ended up with the Alpinestars - they were cheap on Kijiji and in like-new condition. I wore them home because I had nowhere to pack them, and the boots I was wearing were half the size. I see what you guys mean about shifting and walking though. They definitely need some time. Or rather, I...

    GTAM Member review/feedback

    I was telling my gf about this thread today. Then the thought occurred to me: maybe the buyers name should be "450Con" Love that Star Trek shot. "Cooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn".

    GTAM Member review/feedback

    ...and it goes both ways. I rode out to Stoney Creek yesterday from downtown, having arranged to buy pants from a guy in Oakville and boots from a dude in Mississauga on my way home. Pants guys agrees on a price - I let him set it and I thought it was fair. He texts me his address and I tell...

    Sidi Crossfire vs. Alpinestars Tech 3 vs. Salomon Quest

    That's great info. I hadn't considered width in a hard-shell boot. Not friendly at all. And my ankles are DONE. So I'm hoping the boots will sort of hold me all together. It's why the Salomon's are my everyday footwear. Now I gotta go research some Gaerne boots. Square 1...

    Question about Motorcycle Purchasing

    +1. i started small, and I still think back on the few times I made total bonehead moves that would have ended badly had I had a bigger bike under me. I'm older and wiser now. 6 years ago I was an idiot. (Or idioter than I am now.)

    Sidi Crossfire vs. Alpinestars Tech 3 vs. Salomon Quest

    Thanks for the input guys. Plenty of food for thought. I'm planning on riding out to Dualsport Plus tomorrow to try a few options on. But I think Crossfires may already be off the list, considering how stiff they are. (You can practically tell by looking.)

    Sidi Crossfire vs. Alpinestars Tech 3 vs. Salomon Quest

    Do any of you dualsporters wear mx or dualsport specific boots? I've narrowed my choices down to these two models. Up to now I've been wearing Salomon Quest hiking boots. Light and supportive and they fit my feet like gloves. Or really good boots. It's probably a stupid question. Sidi...

    Tire pump suggestions

    Got it at MEC for under 30 bucks about 4-5 years ago. I use it for everything, easy peasy. And no fuses to blow.

    Tire pump suggestions

    Bicycle floor pump. One of the best investments I've ever made. It really came in handy when I had a slow leak on the car and had to wait a week before I could have it looked at.

    First Street Bike

    Somewhere on this forum it's posted that Moto Limo is no longer affiliated with CAA. I called him last year for a quote and it was mind-blowingly expensive. I use CAA Plus, ('Plus' is required for motorcycle service), and when I needed them last year they sent a flatbed. Just make sure they...

    the smell of rotting meat?

    Not sure about the smell - raw meat would probably be more effective, but the critters it'll spawn should draw his attention. Unless he already has 'pets', if you know what I mean.
