    Any advancements in cellphone mounts?

    I highly recommend you do the hard-mount thing you thought of for the ultra, most secure mounting possible to your handle-bars. I'm sure your S8 will vibrate itself dead within a season. Enjoy! Handlebar buzzzzzz. Go with a RAM Mount. They work. They don't work when people like you think it's...

    How do you feel about the decline of petrol vehicles?

    It's progress. It sad to imagine a world without petrol engines, and motorcycles as we know them today - but that is because we are looking at it through the lens of our current construct. Social, economic, etc.. etc.. I look forward to be able to jump into my personal drone or space craft and...

    Japanese police skill test - rain

    When was the accident. At the time it occurred how much street riding experience did you have? I sincerely hope you healed up well from your accident, but the accident does shed light on to my point of view. It truly could have been a situation where there was NOTHING you could have done. Only...

    Japanese police skill test - rain

    Yeah. I get that. Pretty sure that accident will hurt more. lol. No one likes to hear the truth, but dangnabit there it is. It would seem a much better process to make mistakes, develop, learn and figure out public roads in something much safer like car. Even from a formal driver/rider...

    Japanese police skill test - rain

    DOB? Have you been on Dirt-bikes for a number of years prior? Did you hold a license in another country? lol. Most certainly if you're 16 (or thereabouts sub-30) I think you're definitely not doing yourself any favours. Good luck, but I'm sure I'll read about your "i crashed" post in the future.

    Changing engine oil for break in on cb300f

    How much was the engine build. How much is an oil change. You're welcome.

    Disappointed in new Ducati Panigale V4

    Sure. Let's go with that. It's a clone. Just like your video, and starting a thread on GTAM with (let's be honest) the only purpose of boosting your view count for $$. The only thing missing from your video is where you talk about the latest game you're playing on your smart-phone and if I join...

    Angel GT vs PR4

    Quite frankly, they are all great options and whatever you choose you're gonna be happy with. Over last winter I went back and forth on tire options. I basically just commute in dry weather only. Don't have time to do much of any fun riding and definitely not time for any longer day rides on...

    Angel GT vs PR4

    Look at Metzler's Roadtec 01.

    Japanese police skill test - rain

    All the training in the world on the control of a motorcycle won't help you gain experience riding in traffic on public roads. The only real way to do that is get your G license ASAP since 16 years of age and then operate a car for a good long number of years before venturing to motorbikes...

    Gas station reward points?

    A Canadian Tire mastercard makes sense to collect points, especially if you're willing to use CT gas stations as you get good returns/savings. I've used Petro Canada all my life and just collect their points that I stock pile and then use for their 5-cent-off-cards. Otherwise, I've...

    Coloured lights on front of bike

    I highly recommend amber lights. You know - the colour of hazard lights, turning indicators, and amber lights at traffic signals. I don't know about you, but something about that colour really draws my attention at night. Ideally, don't put them so close to your bike either like 'flush-mount'...

    Where to buy gear around Milton?

    Something different to try. http://www.motocicletta.ca/

    Continue......or pack it in?

    LOL - seems like someone had a minor case of PTSD they were able to resolve themselves. Excellent work.

    staging with bikers on the way?

    As well we all know and have experienced - with lots of traffic and slower speeds vehicles bunch up and get closer to each other. With less traffic and higher speeds vehicles space out. If I'm riding alone and come upon another motorcyclist and the traffic dictates that traffic is close...

    staging with bikers on the way?

    I think most often if you're not riding with them then you shouldn't stagger with them. Mind your own business. Mind your own safety. Mind your own following distances. Mind your own blocking positions.

    More luck than skill?

    I noticed that too. HAHAHAHAHHA!

    Police charge man after motorcyclist killed in July on Bayview

    I don't know what it could be pled down too. A very light sentence, perhaps. Don't think you can jump to HTA (Provincial) charge like Careless from a CC (Federal) charge of Dangerous Oper. With that said, we don't know the circumstances and coming evidence/testimony of the driver, witnesses...

    Warming tires and throttle control

    ..and not to find fault, but more so to drive the point home, weaving barely (if at all) helps with this too. Stones and pebbles are NOT GOING TO STICK to your 'street rubber' that's not tack-sticky like a hard run track slick, and the tread grooves on a motorcycle tire are too wide to capture...
