    help, no start after pods

    gas pouring out of carbs = float issue, your floats are not sealing and gas is overflowing. Unless your comfortable with removing the carbs/working on them I would let someone that knows what they are doing take care of it.

    Knee pain when riding

    $3000/year MORE? For me it was $100 more per year but I guess because I started riding (on road) at 34 and i'm an old man :)

    What basics are you wearing to go for a ride?

    when I commute, helmet, jacket, boots, short cuff gloves, regular pants/jeans. If I am going out for a spirited ride. all the same but ensure I have on leather jacket, gauntlet gloves and leather overpants. The whole idea is wear what your comfortable with, if your not comfortable then...

    Knee pain when riding

    I had the 250, i'm not a tall guy 5ft 8" at best. I had pain in my right knee after about 30-40 minutes. I couldn't explain why, I would just bear it but it was annoying, had to stop and stretch but once it hurt it was only a few minutes until the pain started back. I moved up to a 650r, not...

    Mountain bike for a 16yr old

    If your willing to go used, I bought a Norco Moutaineer that was a year old for $100 a few years ago at Bicycles Plus bike swap sale. The bike was used maybe around the block if that. tires were still like brand new. There were some serious high end bikes there for a good price. Its worth it...

    Roofer recommendations?

    Its easy to get screwed by 2 guys with a ladder on a truck. Far too many fly by night roofers, get a company that is reasonably large with a good history on BBB or Homestars. Look up reviews. DTA - Don't Trust Anybody! If you get a low end roofer, ensure they have paperwork and are...

    Anyone know where I can certify my bike???

    Canadian tire in Bowmanville has certified 4 bikes for me without problems. I had my first bike at a real bike mechanic and they had a whole list of items that needed fixing before they would safety that seemed BS to me. I took it to Canadian tire the next day and it was passed without problems.

    Negotiating a new bike purchase

    its the beginning of the season, dealers won't be so willing to sell at near cost. Something people don't understand is they have bills to pay too. Imagine you went to work everyday and your boss negotiated at how much your going to be paid, saying well this other guy will cost me $20k less a...

    VIdeo of the Motorcycle accident @ Yonge and Pleasant

    nope, all these dashboard videos, and the fact that these things are $40 for decent ones on ebay. I know lots of people with them personally, and I have one in each of my cars. Just loop recording incase anything happens I can just pull the microSD and have video of what occurred.

    VIdeo of the Motorcycle accident @ Yonge and Pleasant

    I would say the car is at fault, but the bikes really ensured two things which contributed: - Not allowing the car to see them in time. - Not allowing themselves to see the car in time. The car did cut in front of the traffic because with his vantage point he had enough time, but honestly when...

    Need to replace chain !

    Yes get the rivet tool, change the sprockets. Loosen the front sprocket before taking the chain off :) I just lay my old chain next to the new chain and count and cut the links, you can see how much your old chain stretched.
