    News: National Post | Ethanol, the enemy of small carbureted engines

    The user manual for my 2012 BMW G650GS call for 87 octane gas and that's what I have been running in it since I got the bike. For winter storage I add some fuel staibilizer. Never had an issue with it. She's always started right up come spring :D

    How many with OFTR membership?

    You can ride the SCORRA trails with any OFTR membership. I.e. I can ride them with my OFTR + ODSC membership.

    Is it important to make sure bike is safetied just prior to buying it?

    One more thing to consider about the tires is their age. Just because they were installed last year doesn't mean they're new. I'd check that manufacturing date on them -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_VYhD49fjk

    On my bike the battery is in the fake tank, so I just stuffed all the wires in there.

    New U.S. tariff on imported motorcycles ?

    Ford in Europe is different than here. Same goes for GM, when Trump says that GM doesn't sell NA cars in Europe that's not true. GM owns Opel and manufactures parts etc. for them here. Same goes for Ford. So although not many finished products (cars) are exported there, parts & engines are.

    New U.S. tariff on imported motorcycles ?

    Also remember that the US are part of the WTO and as such are limited on how much duty they can impose on anything.

    A mini GS -- G310GS

    I currently ride the above mentioned G650GS. It sure has enough power to comfortably pass cars on the 400 series hwy but is also light & nimble enough to take it off the beaten path. These things have been around for some number of years -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_G650GS I got mine...

    A mini GS -- G310GS

    BMW is having production issues with the G310R (basically street version of the G310GS) and the delivery has been delayed. Don't think there will be any G310GS available this year.
