I've been looking into getting a cruiser for this year, I've got a cbr650f but love the "mean" look of some cruiser. Any recommendations on where to start without going to huge Harleys. Something quickish, fuel injected, Rebel 500 is out as I don't like the seating position at 6ft just feels...

Insurance companies do ask if you have modifications and there value, with that, working in automotive I've never seen an adjuster show up and care or even notice wheels/tires, lowered, especially window tint. When they do fix those they get stock parts though not your aftermarket. Watched it...

The mechanic doing the safety did notice it not the guy who took it on trade/sold me the bike, I did check kijiji and have found a few but friend of a friend owns the dealer and they had a favor to use so they discounted it well. They don't have factory parts but the poor translation from the...

Thanks guy, I know I've seen, heard of lowering bikes but never looked Into it much, they are making it right. Wasn't sure if it was a big undertaking or bike altering to do so. I'll wait to hear from them and hopefully it's something easy and they cover it or a portion atleast.

Cbr650F They didn't get a new side stand, because when I mentioned it he also said make sure its on flat ground, the stand isn't right for the height. This is my 2nd bike just seems odd they wouldn't disclose it, automotive we need to disclose everything or get bad reviews, people trying to...

Hey, I'm in the process-ish (it's paid for already) of buying a bike from a local dealer, went there because a close friend knows the owner personally and they gave me about $1000OTD off the bike. I saw the bike once before buying it, safetied, and had pictures. Looking at the pictures it...

A 17 Ninja 300 "custom made" for 6500 with 5K KM on it .. selling because to much torque https://www.kijiji.ca/v-sport-bikes/markham-york-region/2019-kawasaki-ninja-ex300racing-edition-custom-made/1559369672

The rider is covered in the same way as the bike? So if without collision, there's a single vehicle accident, and an ambulance ride is required without collision that cost isn't covered under the other existing coverage for the rider?

I'm picking up a new (used) bike for myself hopefully in the next week. A 15' cbr650F that I'm getting for around $4500 cert. Insurance is less then expected, with a 500 deductible, near barrie, about 190/mo full coverage. Without collision though its $22 less a month. Is collision worth it on...

I've seen this video and the written form with it, but that is an 18' cbr not hugely different but the 19' has a bit (4 or so more hp), lowered handle bars, and some other minor stuff like the cluster. No comparisons to the revised one which has adjustable front preload. But im leaning towards...

Hey guys, I'm looking at getting a new bike (I rode for a season in a ninja 300) 3 years ago so basically coming in as a new rider mentality. I'm looking at a 20' ninja 400 (6K +tax) or a 19' cbr500r (6700+tax) both are new. Is the cbr worth the extra $1000+ after tax and interest. I've sat...

Hey guys, so first season with my bike and managed to put it down, right in front of my house doing maybe 10Khm. No cuts, bruises or head injuries, protective equipment and all but broke my knee guess that's that If I put a claim through my insurance (I only have comprehensive) incase of...

Hey guys, got a 2013 ninja 300, just around 12K Km the maintenance guide I found shows valve adjustment should be due. I'm a car mechanic but have never been around bikes or worked on them except some very light things on this bike. Have measured and adjusted valves in level 1 trade school ...

How far north? For the right jacket I’d defenitly go higher if it’s the difference between comfort and protection I’ll look into it

Hey guys, I bought a demin Speed and strength jacket last October when i got my M2 however its quickly becoming apparent it might be a bit heavier then id like for summer. I found a thread very similar but was from 2014 so thought it might be out dated in terms of whats available ive looked...

Afternoon, well I'm a new rider had the bike about a month, little ninja 300 to learn on for a year or two. I'm a little taller then you but the jacket I bought for my course was a medium So? But if you win lotto max I could use a 600 to play with on the weekends Cheers.

Hy guys, I bought a Noco G750, a 0.75A charger/maintainer and used the eyelets to run up under the seat with the quick disconnect included and left that on the bike while it’s in the garage. any downsides to me leaving the charger connected while the battery is connected to the bike? I know car...

Thanks guys, I looked at some disposable ones and ones that say washable and reusable foamish ones. Seemed more economical to get washable Silicone style ones. I’ll start trying some obviously starting at the lower end of cost and hopefully find some that I’m comfortable with

Hey guys, Ive searched on the forum for ear plugs, ear protection, and various other ways of saying it but end up with a list topics they likely were mentioned in not about it. i also read a recent post about should new riders gear up, no one mentioned ear protection that I saw. im a mechanic...

I didnt use Kawasaki No, went with T6 but if my insurance company cares what oil I use that's a tad silly
