    200-400cc dual sport for big rider?

    i'm your weight and 5 inches shorter. with your height you would fit a WR250R better than I do, and it has plenty of pep. spend a bit more on the bike now, if you decide you don't like dualsporting you will get almost all your money back if you sell it. the suspension is fine for my riding style...

    Stolen honda cbr600rr from yonge and sheppard condo.

    4 minutes. Did you have any type of theft protection on your bike? Two guys walking in an riding it out does not sound like professional thieves, more like opportunistic ones. If pros want your bike they will take it. At best you can make it a bit more difficult in the hopes they will pass yours...

    How long from Barrie to Toronto on 400

    everyone wants the best for the least. I would much rather live on a warm year round island somewhere but they have poor wages and hurricanes. I would like Toronto pay with country expenses. May as well throw in a wife that doesn't complain. aint gonna happen unless you get really lucky, and if...

    of course , thats why i said personally. to each their own. i enjoy the planning part of the ride as well which includes programming gas stations and camping areas into my gps. have done the north eastern states and never ran out of fuel. would rather be annoyed with 20lbs+ of fuel under my butt...

    The clash of dual-sport/ADV 650 thumpers

    personally i fail to see the glamour of having a enormous fuel tank for everyday riding. the dr650 range is roughly 160km to reserve, i have traveled on some long rides and never once did i regret having to stop, fill up and stretch every hour and a half. i do mount on a rotopack or two when i...
