I visited this place for the first time last week and was stunned by my experience. The pricing of their models was above the term rip off. As an example, Honda Canada's web page is advertising 2014 models at discounted prices. The sticker price on a roughly $5000 dollar model was stickered at...
a set of handguards (common on dualsport bikes) will greatly increase hand comfort by cutting out the wind. that, my gerbings gloves and jacket and a quick release windshield allow me to ride year round
national cycle has a set of clear guards in case you worry about looks...
Really have to know what type of riding you will be doing, and what you think you will be doing. I made the mistake of buying a new vstrom and proceeding to try and single track it. In the past five years I have had...
another thing you could do is head out when you see a dual sport ride being posted somewhere be it here, ODSC forum, facebook IBAR Ontario page etc. ask if you can test ride either of the bikes.

I have a question then with my Wind service. I have an alert that audibly warns me when i lose cell phone signal. How can my phone have a full high speed signal, drop to 3g, drop to no signal and then go back to full. Phone is a nexus 5
caveat: this is with my phone sitting unmoved on my desk...

SON and Richmond Hill Suzuki (known as 407-Yonge Suzuki) are under the same owner. As I have stated in another thread, SON is Canada's largest volume motorcycle dealer for sales. You don't go to McDonalds for great food, and you don't go to SON for great customer relations. You go because they...
