    Tire Installs By Ricardo AKA GTA Tire Guy

    Another thumbs up for Ricardo, Called him Tuesday and had him come out for Friday. Reasonable price and he taught me a bunch about my bike while he was working on it. Explained everything step by step as he was doing it. I had to leave for an out of province emergency mid way through the tire...

    High idle CBR

    2008 CBR 125r 35,000km Fine at start up but after a few KM of riding probably once or twice per week [usually on the hotter days] the idle will sit at about 3500-4000 while stopped at a red light. A few blips usually sorts it out or if I put it in first and let the clutch grab. I looked at...

    OEM or Non OEM tires for 125r

    Need some updated thoughts as some of the other threads I found are older. My 125r is a city commuter. When the tires wear its only in the center. Are OEM tires still my best bet or is there a better tire for commuting? Its 166 after taxes for a set of OEM from the dealership. Follow up...

    Online booking system for M2X

    Anyone have an alternate link to do this? The one on the MTO website is not working for me. Keeps redirecting me to a Yahoo page? And while we are on topic, anyone have any tips for passing it on my first time, I will be doing it in Brampton on a 125? I saw the M2X test sheet in sticky recently...

    Cheapest rate for Motorcycle tow

    I'd say toyhauler/ infernobuster. Towed my bike 3-4 years ago, was the cheapest with an enclosed trailer.

    2015 Suzuki GW250F

    ummm, yeah. I think the negative reviews of this bike will far outweigh the positives. Ugly as hell.

    My brother wants to give me his bike and I need opinions...

    I like the ninja 300 and I really really like the RC390 True, When I mentioned to him that people are interested in it his face looked like he wanted to keep it lol. Either way meh. He said he adjusted it before he dumped it with no success. Apparently this was a problem before he dumped it...

    My brother wants to give me his bike and I need opinions...

    It's sort of free. I have to fix it, store it for the winter, pay insurance blablabla all that stuff. But yes, it is essentially free. Look at it from my perspective, I ride a 125 of like 12HP that I use to commute, cost pennies to run and fix. Big step no? I guess it's obvious I am going to...

    My brother wants to give me his bike and I need opinions...

    Good point. Rider error. I guess what I meant to say is there were no charges laid and insurance did not go up as there was no claim. Sorry should have clarified. I went to look outside, slack looks fine, rear sprocket looks fine but I cant see the front sprocket because of the cover plate...

    TL;DR My brother wants to give me his lightly crashed SV1000s and need advice if its worth keeping or selling. So here is the scenario. I drive a 08 CBR 125 and have been for 4 seasons now. Next year I turn 25 and my last speeding ticket will be off my record. I have been calling around for...

    The KTM RC390 thread

    This is what I was worried about, does KTM really have more problems then other bikes? I know someone that has one and his engine did explode for one reason or another but he is actually the only person I know with a KTM. Maybe they have the same percentage of problems as other manufactures...
