    Going to ride again after knee replacement.......

    You must feel great after almost 1.5 years. I am assuming you feel no more pain and while I didn’t have a knee replacement I had a total hip replaced mid February this year and have been out today. Still have limited strength.

    Who has a new ride this year?

    All very nice purchases. Seems a better mix of various bike styles and not just sportbikes lately. Enjoy the upcoming season

    It’s a Thruxton, I guess I seem to like Triumphs and I do.

    Leather jacket options

    An interested my choice in $USD however is First Manufacturing. I recently saw a distressed Brando style for under $200.00 If you have a USA shipping point like Kinek, which I currently use, you can have it shipped there and simply declare and pay the tax. They have some pretty nice styles and...

    Jane and Bloor fatality.

    This is exactly what I would do , your dad is correct and reasonable with riding again. I'm also a father of 2, girls albeit, but I would certainly be concerned and give it a bit of time.

    Jane and Bloor fatality.

    Truly sorry for your loss Anthony. I wholeheartedly agree with STND above with his statement about "money". I'm on the road pretty much of the day and come across this all day. It may not be the drivers at fault all the time but the companies they work for that put time restrictions on...

    Fast phase 1

    As D has noted, unless you trailer your bike there, should you crash you have to find an alternative way to get home. And yes you will be both mentally and physically exhausted after the day.

    Cornering. What RPM and gear should you be in before entering on a 600ss

    Montreal sucks

    Left Montreal after the last referendum debacle in 95-96 for Toronto, but go back for business regularly, miss the familiar surroundings, restaurants, ease of just getting around. But something did happen, the waves of exodus didn't help and I find many Montrealers are somewhat bitter about it...

    CBR500R vs FZ6R vs Ninja 650 vs SV650 - Intermediate shootout

    Man I still miss my sv650, that was one great little bike. I had it set up for track though and with a little bit of money on good suspension, you'll love the way it handles. The twin sound is pretty slick too. I'm sure your choices are all good though
