    Quick question for GoPro owners regarding mounts

    Hi all, I thought I'd revive this thread by asking some questions: Do the slight contours of the helmets make it difficult to securely fasten the suction mounts? does the surface to which you mount need to be flat? and finally, has anybody had any issues with the suction damaging the clear...

    Who's going to the show?

    went to the show this morning and I found there were less items than in the January show. It appears that there were many more booths for Harley bikers this time around. Was it worth it? well sure, it allowed me to hang out drooling at the BMW, Ducati and Triumph bikes. Wasn't looking for...

    12 Year old Motorcycle racer killed

    Corrected it for you......I agree with the fact that you need to protect your kids by teaching them to do things safely (proper protection, technique etc), not shelter them. If they fall, let them get up on their own and you'll be surprised that they will go right back to what they were doing...

    Looking to buy another bike buttt...

    That is not indicative of anything. Have you read some of the posts on here? Talk about run-on sentences, poor sentence structure, poor grammar, poor spelling. Now back to the topic at hand.....definitely could be a scam. I would never buy a bike if the owner wasn't available for the sale...

    And I thought it was rough ridding in the GTA

    what gets me the most in some of these is how pedestrians keep walking even after they witnessed the accident; they sneak a peek and walk on and don't even stop to assist. Even drivers just drive around and away. Disgraceful.

    M2 exit course and test

    for those of you that have an M license, is there a monetary benefit i.e. lower premiums if you take the M2 exit course versus not taking it?

    M2 exit course and test

    This is so true, and that is what I am taking from this thread, there's no harm in taking courses. Some are better than others and hopefully in this site we can help each other filter out the not so worthwhile ones.

    Best Bang for Buck Scooter?

    From what I read online, the ruckus and giorno only have a top speed of 50 km/hr. Ideally you want to be able to keep up with traffic.

    Why I quit riding Motorcycles - Peter Cheney (The Globe and Mail)

    At some point in our lives we all have to make decisions. Some times these decisions go against what we want, we decide with what is best for others (family, wife, kids) rather than ourselves. I just got into riding, I read the article and thought how dare this guy try to dissuade me from...

    M2 exit course and test

    my original post was whether the M2 exit course was worth the money or is it better spent on another course; I keep harping on courses because in my line of business you not only learn from doing work but seminars and courses are used to expand knowledge and let you see avenues that you did not...

    M2 exit course and test

    We are what we repeatedly do.....if you tailgate during two years of driving and go and do your test then yes, it is very possible that you will do that. These are just two examples and I am sure there are a myriad more. You have to agree that re-training or refreshers are not a bad thing...

    M2 exit course and test

    just because that driver has not been in an accident does not mean he/she is good in all aspects of driving. Maybe he/she hasn't been in an accident but they may have caused an accident by darting into traffic and cutting off a rider or another driver, making them get into a fender bender...

    M2 exit course and test

    I don't believe it is about confidence, we are all confident after riding or driving for several years. Ask any driver if they think they are good drivers and they'll say yes. We build bad habits and if we are not told it is wrong then we will continue with them. It is not about hand holding...

    M2 exit course and test

    without getting into too much, while Castro was in exile in Mexico planning the overthrow of Bautista in Cuba, he met Che (who had gone there after his famous motorcycle ride along the South American coast). Castro knew that by overthrowing the capitalist Bautista it would mean a change of...

    M2 exit course and test

    Is he a hero to you because of the motorcycle diaries or because of his ideals, I am big fan of his. Like Che, I think Ewan and Charlie (from long way round) had a similar epiphany; with them it was about the lousy conditions that some live with, the work that Unicef is doing to help kids etc...
