    Rattle can paint for race glass?

    Ya I was thinking black... but I'm going to go with white. But I might try to do something like this if I have the time. But you have no idea how much prep work I have been doing. I think 1/2 the fairings are an Epoxy/Fiberglass mixture with the original ABS

    Trailer Floor Paint

    Are you trying to reason with yourself as to why you shouldn't do something that requires a bit of work. :D

    Trailer Floor Paint

    How about those square thingamabobs that people use in their garage? Maybe a quick coat of something to help seal it from water, then add in the squares for traction... dunno.

    Rattle can paint for race glass?

    I'm about to give mine a go, but I have to do a lot of prep work.... body work is in ROUGH shape. I just worry mine is stock fairings.... wonder if it will work as well on original equipment ABS as it does on the aftermarket stuff.

    Buying a bike in the US, shipping it from Canada to another country

    Wondering if any of you guys/gals have had this situation. Say you buy a bike in the US then ship it overseas, but you have a shipping container in Canada and the bike is going from the US -> Canadian shipping container -> another country. Can you get your money back once the container is...

    Is it wrong using rear brake in a corner ?

    Just to clarify a few things. For really low speed stuff, yes it is fine to do so and makes things easier if you/your bike have a jerky throttle. The post by nesobriquet is good. Furthermore - just as an aside and this wasn't related to your question, but I'm going to say it anyway. When...

    Hamilton to Milton, back road suggestions?

    The route Turbo posted is a good one. You can take a few detours, but it is mostly there. However, beware that Britania (if you are in the area) east of Appleby, has been freshly coated with Oiled Down Gravel... so not the best riding surface yet. However..... the better roads are between...

    off duty cop tries to run me off the road for lane filtering....

    Well then you have never seen it done properly. If you sit and watch congested traffic flow in a big European city, you will see the bikes clear off quicker than the cars and keep doing so. It facilitates traffic flow greatly. Saying anything else, IMO is being shortsighted to a ME-FIRST...

    Question about Condo Theft

    Are there any condos in this city that have garages? As in a closed in parking spot with a garage door... underground? I don't understand why this isn't more popular here. That would be THE BOMB!!!

    Gotta love crackheads, bastards rummaged through my tankbag

    But here is a question. You leave a bike with a key IN it. I've done that one by accident one time in San Fran, in not the greatest part of town... it was a BMW R1100R. Anyway... it was still there :D I'm thinking that if a thief sees a bike with a key in it and no method of theft...

    off duty cop tries to run me off the road for lane filtering....

    Ya Paul, apples and oranges. One is filtering, if ANYTHING you can compare what the car did to SPLITTING... which is different. PLUS - If a bike is filtering or splitting it is reducing congestion, it is one less car off the road and should be applauded by EVERYONE, except too many people in...

    ****ing old man merges into my lane TWICE

    Ya I bet in person it looked WAY closer than what it appeared on the video. I'd call it good attentive driving by the OP.... nice video quality too. +1 for recording your rides JUST IN CASE you need it for any reason.

    Ok now BC is just getting crazy

    Um call me confused, but if A POLICE officer busts you for speeding and tells another one to pull you over, they BOTH have to go to court. Isn't the first officer just a witness? Hersay... i.e. the one righting the ticket never saw anything.

    Ok now BC is just getting crazy

    - Since when can you get a traffic ticket for hearsay? - You're telling me people remember exactly what all 13 cars looked like? Heck I like cars, bikes etc.... and I don't think I'd be able to remember what all the different cars and colours were.... as they blew past me at 200. I'm not...
