    6'4 185 LBS on a new honda 125..

    Not sure if the CBR 125 has adjustable suspension or not, but if it does, you may want to add a few turns of pre-load.

    Biggest Rookie Moves

    So does that mean that 50% of the posters live in a hotel or at a friend’s? I have lived at home all of my life, it just happens that my parents and I haven’t shared a home since I was 18 :)

    Sell on Kijiji: Value of Ducati 848

    I don't think that your price is sky high, but maybe at the high end of what I would consider fair. You can get a brand new 2013 leftover from GP Bikes for $13000. I would say that "fair value" is the highest price that somebody is willing to pay. If you haven't seen any serious offers in a...

    Got the video disclosure, what now?

    Did you actually stop? If so plead your case in front of the judge. If you didn't stop why are you asking for a trial? Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk

    What problems to look for

    Riders Choice on Dixie and the Queensway is where I take my bikes for service. They do great work! Check the owner’s manual to see when the next major service is due: they will typically be around the 20000km – 30000km mark. This service can be expensive ($1000+) if the valves need to be...

    BC raises speed limits

    I have a thing to add to the discussion: I think that people will drive at the speed that they feel comfortable with regardless of the speed limit à take a ride on the 407 at 2:00pm on a Wednesday afternoon, most people in the left lane at travelling between 140-150 km/h, until they come...

    Motorcycle Tire Track Questions for M2 Road Test

    I agree with Emefef 100%, specifically point a). I have always rode with this in my mind and I have rarely had anybody pull out in front of me and on these few occasions I was already anticipating their actions and had an escape planned out in advance.
