Apparently there are some Triumph models with the same problem. 2005, 2006 and some 2007 Speed Triples.

In researching a new bike I have discovered that there have been problems with Ducati gas tanks in the U.S. In Europe the problem doesn't seem to be as bad so the thinking is that the 10% ethanol in the States is softening the plastic and making it stretch out of shape. Has anyone heard of this...

They had problems with their engine supplier and had to start making the engines themselves. They should be supplying North America soon.

First of all, teenagers are worse than little kids. Adrenalin, lack of coordination, delusions of invulnerability, weird hormone chit going on etc. Secondly, what was the firefighter thinking? I thought that if you hit someone it was deemed a personal injury accident and that the police had to...

And its not like that here?

Reminds me of the old joke about Italian tanks having 5 speeds. 4 reverse and one forward in case they get attacked from behind. BTW I live in da 'bridge.

143 cm board and adjustable bindings. Board is in very good condition and bindings excellent. Not free-style setup. Great for intermediate level boarders. Bindings are not mounted but come with pieces to mount. Traditional camber board, no bubbles. Willing to sell separately.

Yes as long as they were once registered for the road. If you have a 1970's two stroke that was street legal back then it will be street legal now. Yo just have to have the ownership and get it certified.

http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-motorcycles-sport-touring-2002-Honda-Interceptor-W0QQAdIdZ343713441 This is hard to refuse. I'm sure you could ride it all summer and sell it in the fall for the same $$$

I wonder if he spent more time wrenching on it than he spent riding it. I'm sure the reliability of a high performance engine like that sucks big time. The motoGP bikes are 200 ish and they can go through 5 engines a year.

Me too. My brother used to live in a small town on the other side of Stratford and one of the kids in the neighbourhood went to the store on his trail bike to get some pop. He came back with some cans in his backpack and went off the road into a ditch. I guess he landed on his back and broke...

Here's the dillio dude. (Aren't i cool for an old guy :)) #1 DO NOT USE SOLVENT BASED PAINT INSIDE YOUR HOUSE. Especially in the basement where your furnace and water heater are located. They ignite and so does your house. If you want to paint your kitchen or bathroom walls with alkyd (mineral...

A few years ago I took my son up to Motopark and they had a small track for the kids. I couldn't believe how small some of the kids were riding their own dirt bikes. They had no problem with throttle control or balancing the little bikes. Their were four little girls that were about 4 - 6 years...

It might be a gorgeous bike but how practical is it? The comparison to a VS model is pretty realistic; high cost, high maintenance. How often will you be doing track days? If you get caught doing 160 on the street then they take it to the pound where it will be sodomized. Do you really want a...

Isn't this the beginning of hunting season there?

Actually people in Britain did this at the beginning of WWII. The government or army was going around and taking vehicles for the war effort and some people would bury their bikes so they didn't get "volunteered" for the war. After the war they dug them up. Some would forget about them or not...

I'm sure that many of us have worked with people who needed to be tazered.

It would be nice to see the aerial footage to understand what happened prior to the crash. I don't understand what would cause that. Not that we need closure like a relative but if you're a fan I'm sure you're saying WTF (and not enjoying it as others have implied). I've been watching MotoGP for...

In case you haven't noticed, in North America we are the 'iggers of the transportation industry and the sports/enternainment industry.

There will probably a lot of Harley type bikes up for sale in the spring. As the Rubbies that bought them are getting older they should be a dime a dozen regardless of the season.
