@ Skitta, all bikes get hot it's natural. We are in a really hot summer so that adds to it. Once on the highway on long rides it will be getting cooled by the air and it levels out eventually rather than getting progressively hotter. Also as long as your rad isn't leaking if your bike is liquid...

That's what the steering lock is for. Can't roll it when the bars are turned all the way left with the key off and to the lock position.... unless they push it up to the right, then try to push it around in circles.. not likely.

You mean the kill switch? You should get in the habit of just using the key to turn the bike off. I know in the class they teach to use the kill switch, but it's really only there for emergencies. A lot of people have had times where they forget their key in the bike and leave it because they...

That guys story is my life in reverse. All my life i was against motorcycles, had no real interest, could drive by a dealership without ogling them, and couldn't care less if i ever rode one. Then a few years ago i tagged along to one of the bike shows with a buddy and it all changed, plus i...

If you are going through an intersection and there is a green light it means the cars coming in the other direction are seeing green as well so they can actually be going fast into the turn if they don't see any oncoming traffic. Usually the car doesn't see the bike at all, but it can also mean...

Lol i remember when taking hte msf course, the first time they had us riding in a large oval doing only around 25km i felt like wooooohooooo we're flying! lol. I remember the instructor telling us to speed up because the minimum we would be riding on the streets on avearge would be at least 40...

Lots of good tips here on bears. I'd still be scared $hitless to encounter one and that fear alone would prevent me from ever doing a solo trip like theshnizzle did. She has balls! In her thread she has a pic from her trip where there is one in a field and it looks like it's not even 20 yards...

Lol you sound like me. I love bikes, women, and beer. But that doesn't mean i like hanging around with other people just because they like like that stuff too, or in large groups of people in general. I ride alone. I go to the bike shows to see bikes, but hanging out in a social scene like that...

I would sleep upright on my bike with it up on it's center stand, that way the second i hear anything i can just push forward and get the hell outta there! But seriously yeah, that is what i have always wondered. And not just bears, what about hillbillies with bad teeth and hardons? hasn't...

You mean Hearse.. yep it was at the supershow in Toronto this past winter if it's the same one i'm thinking of. Why aren't there more pics in this thread? LOL that gold skull bike is HIDEOUS! :lmao:

Hit the mute button.. the music playing makes it unwatchable. What is it with people on youtube mixing bike vids with gay/garbage (c)rap music so often? Bikes were always associated with rock. Needs to stay that way. Edit.. oh now i get it, they purposely used that music to match the idiot...

Yep.. just google earthed the address, it's just a bit outside of Welland, looks like it's probably in a barn on farm.

I have family in Welland but have never seen that shop. Btw... what the heck is up with that song that plays when you load the page? it's horrible LMAO! Just the fact they would put up such a silly/bad song makes me not want to go there, ever.. lol

Welcome. Fun little bike, that's what i rode when i got my m2 at the msf course.

It's not worth jumping some scum only to find out he has a gun, i'm big and tough, but no matter how tough you are a bullet will still mess you up. Also someone else said make sure they see you taking pics or calling the cops so that they might give up and leave.. no.. i wouldn't let them see me...

As long as you have all the paperwork, id's etc. and it sounds like you do, yes you will get them there on the spot, they have them in boxes ready to go. I got mine at that location. Make sure you bring enough cash for the plates/sticker and other charges, i forget what they were but i'm sure...

I always found it weird that the only difference between M2 and full M is the alcohol thing. It's like saying it's ok to drink and drive once you get your M the way they have just that one thing set aside. But even a couple beverages can still make your skills diminish quite a bit, moreso on a...

Hope they throw the book at this punk, give him some serious jail time, repossess his mom's bike, and never be allowed to own/operate a bike again.

Never heard of them so i just googled them, kinda cool looking, i'd call it more of a standard bike than a cruiser though since you sit upright and the foot controls are directly down, rather than up front. I had always thought i would want a cruiser before getting my bike license but then when...

Actually they DO have a bike like that! LOL
