    Making the jump from SS to Cruiser?

    Cruisers have their issues too, remember you have to sit on your tail bone, and after a while you start feeling numb in your lower back. I can't ride more than two hours before I need a 10 minutes break. I love the no maintenance of the shaft drive though, no greasing or cleaning. My next bike...

    2001 shadow 750 spirit oil change

    Depending on your use, I changed mine every 5000 but it was very dirty, so I changed it at 3000 and it was semi OK so next change I will probably do at 4000 and check then.

    How much you ride ?

    Don't worry about the mileage as much as the frequency, I ride 7 days a week 5 for work and 2 for fun. On average I spend a 3 hours a day on the bike, more on the weekends. Just use the bike for everything you need to do and it will just become the habit. If you ride enough you will get your fix...

    Egyptian food restaurant in Toronto/GTA

    Usually you temporarily loose the sense of smell and are focused on very primitive functions, like breathing. Offcourse you can come, hospitality is our thing. Make sure you are hungry though, some how that translates to lots of food like you are coming from famine.
