    Construction at Mosport

    That all depends on how many shares you have and how much you subsequently get in dividends! They are kinda paying you to go! :)

    What kinda boots do you wear?

    I saw the pump design recently and think it is a nice idea that more boots should incorporate. Custom fits to anyone's foot.

    Chain and Sprocket Kit

    It can be a nice little job to do on your own. Best to have, borrow or have someone use a chain master link rivetting tool to ensure it is rivetted properly and to ensure safety and longevity. The old chain can be unrivetted or simply cut via a hand grinder with a cutting disk. A grinder on sale...

    Thinking of buying this bike...any red flags?

    There are no legal laws on where stick on tank protectors can be applied. The person that installed the 3 bag scratch protectors on this bike must have had big balls to need 3! :lmao: By the looks of the fork tubes sticking up so far above the top triple clamp I wonder if the whole bike has...

    Bridgestone Battlax S20's

    The Pros are a lot better in the wet compared to the non-pros. Pros won a European wet weather test for Hypersport tires. The S20's are supposed to be even better all around: wet, warm up, dry grip.... The S20 are the tires I will be buying this spring. Hopefully they are available this spring...

    What kinda boots do you wear?

    That is the top of the line Daytona Securiy Evo G3 race boot with the Aramid inner boot. I know of no other boot, not Dainese, AlpineStar......, that can match it for protection. Race track riders I have spoken to say they really like the boot when on the bike but they take them off so they can...

    What kinda boots do you wear?

    Most boots do that. Most boots are simply abrasion and some what puncture resistant, but one can still severely twist or break an ankle or foot. The last couple of years many brands have stepped up to offer real protection (anti-twist and anti-hyper extension) in some of their top line boots...

    Closer to the Edge - Isle of Man TT3D - Documentary

    I bought the 2011 Isle of Man dvd for someone for xmas. We watched it together and really enjoyed it, all 4 hours. We were ready for a real ride after that. Then we watched the 1st part of the 2010 via YouTube. All on the big screen tv. :thumbup:

    ABS brakes vs non ABS

    One does not have much skill or presence of mind if one locks up and holds while braking in wet conditions. Let's have roll cages, pop out training wheels ... on all bikes. Life is too short to have real skill development requirements. Then the insurance companies can save money & will have...

    cable lube kit?

    I can feel my clutch cable needing lube via the gradual increasing pressure needed to pull the clutch lever. I lube it about ever 10,000 kms. Takes about 15 minutes; I am slow, put rags on tank, cover gauges... in case some spray gets on them just makes it easier to clean them). Also some form...

    JUMPING : SS Bikes

    If you can afford a new Lambo then why not get a big Cat D10 bulldozer and just crush those rocks into pebbles the Lambo can handle? It will feel like you are climbing rocks. :p Rock climbing in 4 wheels is a baby step to jumping a bike! :D

    What are you getting your significant other for xmas?

    The volume and price are not what is important, although we all at some time feel that little nagging thought. The industry of Marketing does this too us. It is the idea and thought that matters, and more importantly just being there, listening and being honest. One of my best presents was...

    Full boots OR the Hi-top sneaker style

    Don't know about that brother but there was no break-in required for Technic Violator II. And they did not violate my feet = never even know they are on my feet when riding. Pretty good for walking but like most sport high boots the 15 degree forward slope does impede walking a tad. My feet do...

    JUMPING : SS Bikes

    I have no links but you may consider viewing some UTube videos of the Isle of Man motorcycle races that occur ever year on the island across the big Atlantic ocean. Or renting/buying a DVD on those races. In those races, which occur on an approx. 30 km long through the streets and country side...

    JUMPING : SS Bikes

    Why can you not stand up some? 50, 100, 180 kph? It is done! It is still a motorcycle.bend your knees, clear your head, throttle or brake in the air to change the bike's aspect so as to land smoothly parallel to the ground. Get you butt off the seat before the suspension loads and rebounds...
