    Thanks highway department! 403 between Ancaster and Hamilton

    I didn't realize there were so many crack experts on here! So tell me, why did the cracks they filled in a week earlier not stand proud? They were level when laid.

    Alternator or Battery?

    I have an 07 ZX6 with original battery and alternator. I put Oxford grip warmers on the bike last fall hooked direct to the battery, and the low battery shut off does not work. As a result, I have killed the battery here and there. Lately, my bike won't start very much. I put a battery...

    Thanks highway department! 403 between Ancaster and Hamilton

    The Highway folks filled in all the cracks between Wilson Street and the entrance of the Linc, both directions, in Hamilton in the last few weeks. The problem is that whoever the ****** was that did it overfilled the cracks, so now the tar stands proud in that section. First thing in the...

    lien???????????

    I agree with the poster above that said to give him price - lien. Also, it can take up to 30 calendar days to remove a lien depending on lender processes. They have that much time. I removed my own lien and had Honda Finance send me a lien release letter for the buyer, but a buddy did the...

    price difference between dealerships? which one to go with?

    I have personally found the best way to buy anything with wheels is to call all the dealerships you are willing to buy from. I did that with my wife's bike (07 ZZR250 bought in 08), and Warp 9 was cheaper by $1,100 than anyone else (on a $4,500, that is a lot). I tried the walk in with cash in...

    RIP Gixxer near Waterdown Rd Westbound 403 6/20

    I agree with you, but it's not without precident. When I was a kid, we used to see Hearse's (what is the plural?) all the time at roadside accidents with a fatality. It is also possible the hearse was involved in the accident, versus working at the accident. What I saw did not look good...

    RIP Gixxer near Waterdown Rd Westbound 403 6/20

    Long line of typically crap Monday traffic this morning around 8:30 (June 20, 20111) ends in me seeing police taking pictures of an accident and a Gixxer resting on it's side. Up with the cop cars? A hearse. RIP unknown rider...

    Sportbike Luggage, Recommendations

    Use whatever you have around the house, and pick up these: http://www.rokstraps.com/ DualSport Plus in Stoney Creek has them. I think they were 10 bucksish? I can personally speak to using them to put my laptop backpack full of crap on the daily commute 60 kms on my ZX6 each way to work...

    Friday the 13th

    I have been on cruisers and sport bikes large and small. Didn't feel out of place on any bike. You basically park it anyway, and watch the bike show.

    Same experience as UberCLK, but I had ordered a Joe Rocket for my wife and shipped to US. Fast shipping to him, no issues with product.
