    Seeing RED - Insurance blues or SCAM

    Buy a 3/4 ton truck and plow and put commercial insurance on it and come back here...then we'll have something to ***** about. I pay $8000/yr for 5 months work and never made a claim in 9yrs in business. That aside i pay $1900/yr for my R1 and I hear ya its terrible. It's the only legal scam...

    The G series are great value. Read any review. They dont have huge power, but are well balanced. Want power, buy detroit steel. My wife and i bought the latest legacy gt...but only after did i try the new g37 sedan..i love the feel of that car.

    Who has lost their Port Dover Virginity?? Leave a comment

    I went..sweated some and sweated some more riding my R1 at idle speeds for an hour getting in. (mental note, don't do that again until y-pipe is installed..thought my right foot was on fire). Met up with some friends and checked out the vendors etc. Glad I brought a backpack with a cooler...

    2012 Demo Days

    Ive gone on many demo rides...cant say i ever encountered a huge sales pressure. Dont think they have too, the bikes sell themselves. Just gotta look past the rush of riding a new bike and compare the bike to what you like and dislike about it. I remember riding a busa once and fell in love...

    Dealer suggests new bike break-in

    Just got my R1 last week. I've gone through this before with my VTR, however yes vary rpm and load. 1000km usually is 1st service. Tech told me not baby it and not redline it, but do vary rpm and do some full throttle to set the rings and valvetrain. Funny the shift light is set at 7g's on my...

    Ducati 1098 or keep the 09 R6

    I thought about a duc as well but after riding the 848 I don't think I could live with it....so I bought an R1. I can only imagine what the 1098/1198 are like after riding a 848. The 848 feels like it has more gusto then my 9 to about 8g (mind you the one I rode was a evo with a full exhaust...

    Can u smoke it? (W/P)

    I had many many runs drag racing to get into low 11's. I think my best was 11.3 1st time at the tree I pulled a 13..didn't know what I was doing. VTR is a great bike to drag, great low end power and easy to be consistant. I actually made $ because I could do 11.5-11.7 all day when I raced in...

    Can u smoke it? (W/P)

    I will agree with how fast some cars will launch...I use to drag my VTR and would pull low 11's...I've raced against bikes, cars and sleds at the track. I was beat by a civic once but not by much, I got him on the 60ft but he pulled on me after that and did a low 10....talked to him to after (he...

    Bought a 2010 R1...feedback

    I priced out a set of Yosh slip on's (aluminum) and it comes with the Y-pipe (according to the parts guy). It came to $850 + tax. Carbon cans are approx $1200... I love the sound of the crossplane and I'm hoping with the yosh cans it wont be as hot
