    White Gear...

    How hard is it keeping white gear white? Whether it is leather or textile. The reason I ask is because yesterday I was at the Brampton Powersports dropping off my bike for a tune up and while I was there I was having a look at what gear they had. What I noticed is that all the gear that was...

    Changing a spark plug

    I bought a new spark plug for my 125r and was wondering how to replace it and if there is anything I have to do before replacing it? [like disconnect the battery, and how tight the plug should be, gaskets, washers, etc?] I am a noob so, sorry if this seems like a dumb question. Thanks

    Bike Warm up

    The other day at work one of my coworkers gave me a small lecture how I can wreck my bike because I start it and just go with no warm up. I drive a 125r and usually just start my bike, put on my gloves, get on the bike and go. I don't typically drive fast for the first bit, I keep it under...
