I was wondering if any fellow riders on this forum ride to work near the Yonge and College area. I usually park on Grenville St., the street just north of College but it had recently been closed off for street parking. Does anyone know of any alternative street parking in the area? Thanks in...

A few non Asian buddies of mine would say the most racist things and joke around but I know it is harmless since we know where to draw the line. On a different note, I was on a business trip in the midwest. That office location comprise of 100% white folks. Nothing raciast was directly says...

??? I am a bit curious why you point out the fact they are 'Asians'... Is it because it is typical for Asians to wear weird clothes and acting all stupid? Or is it rare to see an Asian wear weird stuffs and act like an idiot with boxes and you had to point out such rare occurrences and show...

Just went to the show this morning and figure I'd share some info specifically on deals since there is a thread on the general impression on the show. Riders Choice has a few specials on tires and motor oil. Specifically, $39 for the Motul 7100 4L. Not sure if its a super deal but more than...

I have already made a purchase online for a Teknic race suit. I know I am going to the show in December and had been told there are some pretty good deals on gear. However, I am not sure if those items are really as good as the clearance sale online. Or perhaps the clearance stuff are on some no...

I am glad to hear it wasn't a serious fall. Its good that you realized what you had done wrong and learned from it. Just a few questions, when you were making the left turn, how fast were you going at the turn? did you brake at all going into the turn? was it a traffic light turn? Were you...

Honda is doing a major discount on the CBR125 for those interested. Brand new 2012 is $2,299 plus tax from $3,499 That's $1,200 off!!! Check out their website. http://motorcycle.honda.ca/everydaygetaway/offers

Practice for...... in case an old lady is hitting the ramp right behind you in a cager going in at 90km/h ... and she doesn't see too well. :( I can't speak for others, but for myself, I haven't been riding too long and not as often, for me, when I exit off hairpin ramps, I have to do all my...

Good to hear not much damage and you are ok. If you need a new pair of gloves, check out the Alpinestars GP plus, just google. eBay, Amazon and all the online retailers are clearing them out for about a US$100 online, almost half off. I just picked up a pair, feels awesome.

The cop did tell my friend 'if you want to practice, go to a 'freakin' parking lot.... I told him perhaps he should go to a police station with a decent size parking lot and just make circle to practice his leans. Or maybe do a few burnouts while he is there. :lmao:

Did a quick search on the forum, didn't really find any recommended GOOD bike mechanic. Most were complaining about most of the major shops and dealers... overcharging and poor work. I am looking to get some shim work done, engine is a bit noisy and other maintenance work while the engine is...

How fast were you going on the ramp practice sessions? What time of day do you usually practice?\ I am not trying to defend at_28 but if he does take enough precaution and he is more about practicing his lines and throttle control, braking, etc. I don't see that as street racing. My friend...

Last week, a friend was pulled over by a cop but did not get a ticket. He was going on ramp to 404 on Maj Mac. He was doing his loop (Maj Mac to Elgin and back) late at night. Luckily it was only his second loop and he is just warming up his tires and the weather is cold. He wasn't even going...

Do you mind me asking which helmet did you get? I know a guy who bought a 2009 Yamaha R1 at the show with $6000 off discount! Is that a typical deal to expect? or pretty much a one off on certain year? I know this year, Honda is doing a $3000 discount on their 2011 600RR. Are there any other...

Just ordered the Xcelerator suit online through eBay. Actually, Bikebandit has the same suit for US$539!! but need to factor in the shipping charge to Canada so I figure go through eBay might be better with better protection. Will update later.

Holy smoke, over $1200 off the CBR250 that's like 25% off!! What about the 600RR?? anything similar?

How good are the deals for Bikes? and for Gear? I am particularly looking for a race suit. Would the prices be better or just as good as let say Revzilla online clearance stuff or at Royal's clearance? With the new 2013 ZX6R, Khuna did a hugh clearance for like $9000 tax in for their 2011...

Thanks for everyone's input. Jayv - you are right, they only have a 40 left which is not going to fit. I was wondering if I should wait until Dec for the Bike show at the Convention centre. I have not been but was told that there are some good deals around, especially for tires?? What about...

Hi, I am thinking of getting a race suit and wanted to see if anyone had any experience with either of these suits. I have been riding for only about 2 years but wanted to get into track racing next season and want to take advantage of some end of season race suits. There is a special going...
