    Shoei RF-1100 Helmets on sale at GP Bikes

    My mistake, I only checked the Solid and Sylvan, so I assumed the whole RF line had XXS.

    does a white jacket make the rider noticeably cooler than black under the sun?

    Wot? Seriously? If you really don't know, the rule is stupid: No wearing white after labour day. Why? Google it and read the many silly reasons.

    Need a motorcycle for modelling photoshoot :)

    Seriously. Saw the thread title and thought "This should be good." She probably should have specified that photo shoot =/= sex despite the word shoot being in there.

    does a white jacket make the rider noticeably cooler than black under the sun?

    I tried to get a lighter coloured jacket when I first got my gear, but all they had in my size was a black Teknic jacket. Still wish I had waited and got something lighter as I have a brown leather jacket for when it eventually gets cold.

    Very first ride?

    Yes, rules are important. Learn Right of Way and never forget that you should never stop in the middle of an intersection if there's traffic. Stop before you enter. I see far too many people doing this these days and it's irritating.

    lien???????????

    This. Don't give the guy anything until the lien is removed. Obviously he doesn't have the money to pay it off, so what's to say he's actually going to do it? Sounds like way too much of a hassle.

    Are you a considerate cager?

    I make my girlfriend reply to texts and answer my phone. I'm actually more aware of motorcycles now and actively try to make things easier for them unless they're driving like a dick. While driving out to Niagara there was a couple on a Harley 2 cars up and to the left, which I noticed was being...

    Pulled Over By Cop For Giving 9-Year-Old Girl A Motorcycle Ride

    Really? REALLY? I'm sorry, but I don't think the amount of rules you need to remember comes anywhere close to the volume of laws in the HTA. People comparing it to life or death, surgery and other ridiculous stuff are just being argumentative. The HTA is huge and very much open to...

    407 Transponder Questions

    You do know that if they link you to being a repeat offender it's not just an obstruction ticket, right? They keep record of the accumulated tolls and it eventually becomes a fraud charge.

    407 Transponder Questions

    I'm being as direct as I can. They do track these people, there is a list and there are people looking at the videos. If the system can't see the plate and generate a bill, you can bet there are a set of eyes on that image. When you see it for yourself it's actually quite impressive.

    Shoei RF-1100 Helmets on sale at GP Bikes

    They actually have it in a lot of the schemes, it's just that most places don't stock the XXS. We managed to find a solid in XXS, but it was a display model and very worn in from people trying it on.

    407 Transponder Questions

    Some people with fender eliminators don't get charged because their plate is so high or angled in such a way that the cameras won't be able to pick it up. How long have you been using it? Initial billing takes about a month and a half to two months to come through because of the setup involved...

    That's not too bad then. I was looking at Sport Tourers, but none looked like they would fit me too well as they seem more upright and liked the look of the ER-6n. Thanks for the reply!

    where did the gixxer stereotypes originate from?

    No, the Vanilla Ice video is the something stupid. I'm sure there's other things, but just making my point.It's just like Fast and the Furious was the something stupid for Civics.

    where did the gixxer stereotypes originate from?

    It's just a situation of something stupid attracting stupid people and others noticing. It's like Civics.

    407 Transponder Questions

    He's saying if you register your bike to your car's transponder then you won't get charged the fee. You still get charged the video processing fee if you don't have a transponder or your bike registered to one. This is the case. They actually have staff who review the video of plates, which...

    Oh Deer!

    Things are getting soft

    The parking lot at my work is fairly old, so I thought it wouldn't matter. Apparently it was hot enough to sink my bike down to the foot bar on the kickstand. If not for that it would have fallen over.
