    Motorcycle Won't start! Please watch Video!

    The battery for sure. Not cranking very fast even at the beginning of the vid. Get yourself a VOM (multi meter) and check the voltage. It should be at least 12.7 volts and when the bike is running it should read around 14 volts if it is charging properly. It may just need to be charged or it may...

    Kawasaki Ninja H2...750 cc supercharged.

    Rickey Gadson has had this bike out on a track and reached 214 mph.

    Norton boots at The Bay

    They look quite sturdy to me and I see a pair of Zips in my future. If I get to Queen street I'll make sure I'm styling on my '65 Atlas :D

    Custom Fabrication of bolt

    Sure looks like the end that failed is a left hand thread which would make sense. Good luck with that at a store. You need to order one or find a machine shop that will make one.

    Barrys Bay paved or gravel

    It looks to me like it is paved only as far as Wilno road N. which is about 1/2 way

    CanTire coolant for a GSXR K7?

    I thought that only the "long life" coolant was silicate free and therefore safe for motorcycle water pumps.

    Cold Weather Exhaust Noises

    Stay away from carbohydrates. Bikes prefer a high protein diet, especially in cold weather.

    Front forks re alighnment on Kawi 250R

    Re: Front forks re alignment on Kawi 250R The basics given above are good for practically all motorcycles whether it be a 1949 Norton or a 2015 SS.

    Ideas for beating noise meter

    One problem that I have with this standard is the requirement for a 3 cylinder engine to rev to 5,000rpm. For a bike like the Triumph Daytona 675 that is nothing but for my bike which has a 2300cc engine that is getting close to redline and I'll be damned if I'll let a copper run it in a no load...

    Occasional Idle Issues CBR

    To be honest I am not sure. On my Triumph with the Keihin ECU you set the voltage. In my case it is .6v dc. Moving it even slightly will change the setting. The loping idle and the fact that turning the engine off then back on fixes the problem being similar is what leads me to suggest this.

    Occasional Idle Issues CBR

    Sounds like the TPS needs to be reset or replaced.

    Ummm... under the Crown Lands Act of 1989 provincial highways are specifically excluded from being crown land.

    Used 2012 Ninja250 sitting for 2 years, should I be concerned?

    Treat it like any used bike. If it starts and runs properly then make an offer. If it doesn't then walk away.

    Low-speed wobble after tightening steering stem nut.

    With the front wheel off the ground check from lock to lock for a smooth feel with zero notchines. If it is smooth then I would suspect a very slight over tightness and recheck the setting.

    Sihks must wear helmets in Ontario

    You have the nerve to call me a moron and yet you are using simplistic, almost childlike analogies to explain my rights and the laws of the road. I understand my rights and obligations and have an excellent driving record to prove it. I have been riding and surviving on motorcycles for over 50...

    Sihks must wear helmets in Ontario

    Now I need lessons in common sense and common decency? And why are you quoting the American constitution as it has no application in this country. We as Canadians are guaranteed the freedom of Expression under section two of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. I've had my say and have...

    Helicoil or new head?

    I blew out a spark plug on a turbocharged auto and was charged $50 to to have a helicoil repair done in situ. Never a problem after and the car was on the road for years more.

    Sihks must wear helmets in Ontario

    I understand the point but I think there is already too much government control and people are starting to go along like sheep. My point is that government is here to serve all the people, not just the majority "for the greater good". I think I should have the right to decide if I should wear a...
