    Royal Enfield

    I have the INT650, which is a very similar platform to the Bear (almost identical). I like it. It's not whip your head back fast, but fast enough. Finishes are pretty good. Nice thing they did with the Bear is they changed the rim size. On the INT and GT they used 18" front and back. Finding...

    How much can you drink?

    Highly complicated answer to a simple question: Usually zero if I'm on a bike. 1/hr if I'm in a car. Drivers in Toronto and Scarborough are complete f'n morons. Can I ride after a drink, probably. I've done it a handful of times. It's dealing with the people around me that gets tricky. As for...

    Best place for M1 Exit?

    Yeah, I second the Learning Curves. The price and location were good for me and my friend, the instruction was "good enough". Not amazing. But adequate. All courses that meet the MTO guidelines will teach the same stuff mostly, the difference is in HOW they teach it. At times my instructors...

    New Rider, old bike?

    I know I'm probably a sucker for punishment, but I dig older bikes. I'm a new (totally new) rider, but I've been looking at an '82 GL500. Mostly for it's aesthetic potential (what a cool motor). With very little effort I think it will make a great little scrambler. Does anyone have any...

    Hello! Noob from Pickering ON

    Hey There, I'm Adam, I'm a little late to the game. In my early 40's, just getting into the 2 wheel thing. I've been tinkering with cars since I was in diapers. My dad was/is a hot rodder, race driver, and shady tree mechanic, so most of my "life flashing before my eyes" moments include grease...
