    Sihks must wear helmets in Ontario

    I don't recall stating that I break the rules of the road! I stated that I have the right to ride a motorcycle if I so choose. I don't believe any government has the right to dictate those choices to its citizens.

    Sihks must wear helmets in Ontario

    +1 on this. I do not consider it a privilege to use a vehicle of my choice.I believe that I do have a right to ride a motorcycle. I do not exist merely to serve a government. Surely it is supposed to be the other way around!

    V-rod, M109r, what other power cruisers are out there?

    My Rocket III ticks all the boxes for me. It makes a good tourer too, effortlessly pulling two up loaded with gear.

    V-rod, M109r, what other power cruisers are out there?

    Instead of believing in Wiki try this: http://www.superbikeplanet.com/vr1000_obit.htm I think you may be confusing the Rotax engined Buell superbike with the original VR1000

    V-rod, M109r, what other power cruisers are out there?

    Chain Slack/Tension

    As this bike has a hardtail there is no need to add slack to accomodate suspension movement. Leave just enough that the chain isn't tight.

    Carpal tunnel and riding, any advice?

    I'm surprised that someone would ask the GTAM crowd the answer to a medical problem. See a doctor and find out what is going on. Carpal tunnel typically is indicated when the thumb and first two fingers go numb. I had surgery 20 yrs ago on both hands and never a problem since.

    Should I tow?

    They certainly aren't fragile. I have several quite old bikes and sometimes, insurance being what it is, they can sit for a year or two (inside) and start up and run just fine.

    highway speed limit increase

    Should this ever happen it is unlikely that the speed limit around Toronto would change. In the States they have much higher limits on the interstates but all are 55-60 around heavily congested areas such as cities

    chain adjustment / straight wheels

    You still can't measure from point to point with a piece of string! There is a way of using string to align the rear wheel but it has nothing to do with measuring. I deal with vintage bikes every day.
