    Racer5: reviews and help

    Oh, bring aspirin. The only time I've ever experienced arm pump was on those cbr125s. Combination of bad form, buzzy engine, heat and consecutive long days resulted in the most excruciating experience without also involving falling off the bike.

    Racer5: reviews and help

    Do you have a helmet already? It would be easier to list that out instead. The helmet must be manufactured less than 6 years from the date of the course. They sent someone to buy a new helmet for that on the weekend I went. Most quality brand helmets are going to carry at least the ECE 22.05...

    KTM Street Demo Tour 2023

    Apex has their demo day on May 27th but they aren't taking bookings for it yet. Likely the other Ontario dealers will have their day around there. https://www.apexcycle.ca/events-calendar-atvs-motorcycles-utvs-dealership--xlistevents I have to make myself not go. I do not want to test ride...

    Motul 5100 vs 7100

    I had a lot of gear change issues. False neutrals, falling out of gear. It went away when i went back to 7100T.

    Enclosed trailer hacks

    Yeah, it calls for 0-2 gauge copper. I estimate its a 14ft run from battery to mounting point. I haven't really checked out the random car audio shops. Hence why I'm asking for a recommendation on a place that does good work!

    Enclosed trailer hacks

    I'll cross that bridge when I get there haha. This is more for utility. External lights, griddle, coffee maker, giant fan, power tools/power tool battery charger, laptop, TV. None of these items are permanently installed. If I was going to spend a night in the van to save on hotel fees, what...

    Enclosed trailer hacks

    Car batteries. Ford Transit dual battery option. Batteries are under the drivers seat, inverter will set in the back. Van lifer style stuff but this is more for random AC stuff at a track day kind of idea. I already have the 2000w inverter from Renolgy. Max power drawing item would be an...

    M2 riding course

    If you can afford it yourself, (bike and insurance), it's a great topic to demonstrate your adulting skills (budgeting, employment, etc). Be careful not to over-demonstrate your adulting skills or you'll be forced to demonstrate your independent adulting skills. Of course, if you are asking...

    Enclosed trailer hacks

    Speaking of enclosed trailers, anyone good with installing an inverter/know a place that can do it? Bus bar, wiring and wire management (no concealing), fuse, grounding, minor fabrication.

    Best GTA shop to buy all the gear?

    No, but Royal isn't top shelf designer either. They are very middle of the road. They generally cater more towards offroad, but they have a decent street bike selection. If anything, their target market is middle class cottager. A lot of Joe Rocket, Olympia, Icon, Speed & Strength. American...

    How many crashes before Sunday evening?

    So sick and tired that you apparently had to share that exact song and dance here, at other riders, amongst other riders. :unsure: Also projecting onto them like you want them to die, or that they should die.:oops:

    Your views on Bennett's bike social, and why we don't have something like here

    It doesn't exist here cause there's nobody who wants to sponsor it or pay for it, especially when competing with the US media market. It's a very chicken and egg problem too, with sponsors only coming if its successful, and to be successful you need sponsorship. It would take an existing...

    KTM Street Demo Tour 2023

    They shoved all of the Ontario KTM dealers into one week in the middle of summer. There was maybe 3 weeks notice. They were all on week days. Got my test ride in, now I have two orange bikes in the garage!

    PA Loading Ramps on Sale

    One of the reasons why I didn't feel the need to get the full set. The center portion to give you enough wiggle room, and one of the sides (not attached) to walk up. If I was riding it up, yeah, i'd feel a lot safer if I knew I had enough ramp to flat foot on both sides. 1500lbs rating on the...

    PA Loading Ramps on Sale

    I have some black widow ramps. The ramped ends make it great for easy on and off. I have 1x of 7' 10 and I actually bought one end ramp off from 7' 10 from a friend so we both have a ramp and a half now which is all you need to walk a bike up. Also, those PA ones and styles like that, tires...

    Using 5G Cellphone Hotspot for Cottage Internet

    Keep in mind the peak weekend traffic when in season. Of course, this is time, location and neighbor specific.

    POLL: Cold weather riding...

    For me, the question is about tire grip and what you are looking to get out of the ride. Below freezing on some sport tires and youll never get them warm enough. First ride of the season, sure, take it easy and cruise around. Every weekend at -5c looking for some adrenaline? Maybe time to...

    Alibaba anyone order stuff from here

    Just like Amazon, claims are paid out by aliexpress and passed on to the sellers. Its easy to get a refund cause its their reputation, not the seller's reputation.
