    Hand Cramping

    +1. I also am new to riding and on a GSXR 600 so a similar riding style. I got numbness and cramps until I took the weight off my arms. I was riding with my elbows locked and leaning my weight on the bars. I would last about 10 minutes. Squeeze gently with our knees and push down slightly on...

    HOW TO RIDE IN A GROUP

    +1 I Totally agree. I am new to riding and very interested in the technical side of it. As a new rider to both the sport and the local group I ride with I learn based on the actions of the experienced riders. I continue to ride with them because they are a safe and sane group. If I displayed...

    Golden Horseshoe Photo Tag

    The golden horseshoe usually refers to all the cities on lake Ontario from the Whitby/Oshawa area around to St Catharines/NOTL. It sounds like we are trying to define the Niagara Penninsula. I am thinking it is Coyo's call to set the boundries. I would suggest Lake Ontario as the northern...

    Scooter people, pls 'splain.

    Yeah, I don't get it either. Shorts, flip flops, tank tops...I saw one with a little dog between her feet. I think the majority are scared to get a real bike so they think this is safer and they can't get hurt.

    Need some Help on Good routes/roads to Niagara/ North Areas!

    Sulphur springs road, in Effingham. Not for a fast pass but lots of curves and scenery. Your route will go by both ends. Check it out on google maps to see where to pick it up.

    how do HD riders do it?

    Sport bike = Full face helmet. Riding down the road face first, the more gear I have the better. I love when you see the hand come out the window of the cage in front of you and you wait for the cigarette butt to fly at you. I know a guy who had the visor flipped up and got a bee in his...

    hello everyone

    Welcome. If you take the M1 exit course you can ride the CBR125. IMO it really does lack power, I considered a 250 this past winter when choosing my first bike but opted for a 2010 GSXR 600. I find it quite manageable in the bottom half of the throttle, the brakes are sportbike brakes so...
