    Saw Triumph Thruxton FS on T.O. insurance recovery site

    The gauges look to be damaged too! It is also listed as "Not available for sale at the moment". You're right though, for the right price that would be a great bike!

    Hotter than hell out there

    Yesterday, when I left work, the humidex was 47C here in St. Catharines. I put my helmet, jacket, boots, and gloves on before I left the air-conditioned office. As soon as I was outside my helmet fogged up! I've never seen that happen due to high temperature before!!

    Hot Weather Riding Tip

    Importing a Motor Vehicle To Canada (the be all end all)

    A coworker, while touring Guatemala last week on a rented motorcycle (I'm very jealous), met a German fellow on a German registered 2006 Honda Transalp. The German fellow is touring the world, ending in Canada in about a months time. He offered the TransAlp to my buddy for $1,000 when he's done...

    Does anyone here use a modular helmet?

    I replaced my Shark Evoline with a Shoei Neotec. Both are great, but the Shoei fits my melon a bit better, and is lots lighter compared to the Evoline.

    Is Suzuki of Newmarket still bad?

    I played the Suzuki dealers off each other at the Jan 2008 bike show. SoN got to the point where I no longer believed them (offers of free delivery to Niagara, etc etc.), SoB got my order. This was in 2008 though...

    Is There Any Bike Out There That Can Give You 400+ km's On Tank Of Gas?

    Over the life of my 2008 DL650 I've put on just under 35,000 km (short daily commute, occasional tour), and average 5.12 l/100km (thank you RoadTrip app!). With a 22 litre tank, this comes up as 429.286 km possible, but I have ridden almost 450km on a single tankfull on the highway.
