    Home Made Frame VIN Number

    What D23 said... It's possible. My buddy is building a trike, and his VIN has the HOM prefix. Unfortunately, the first digit is 0. So it starts HOM0... not the ideal VIN number for such a cool project. haha.

    Great deal on a great Battery Tender at Canadian Tire!

    My opinion, is that this is just being overly cautious. There is always a chance, that there will be a spark, with the last cable you connect (should be the negative cable). Batteries can emit hydrogen gas, and there is always that tiny risk that a spark could set the gas off. So, hooking the...

    Oil Change

    Do you have the owner manual for your bike? If not, you should. If you check in the owner manual, I'm sure they will list other viscosities of oil as well, that are suitable for your bike, depending on the temps you will be driving it in, and use of the bike. He probably put the 20W50 in...

    Noob question regarding keeping insurance on you?

    I keep mine on the bike, because if I don't, I know I will forget it one time, and that will be the time, I need to produce it. lol. Original insurance slip, is required...not a photocopy. Ownership - a photocopy is acceptable, so you don't have to keep the original on your bike (if security...

    Leaving the choke open.....

    I know, they actually made mention of this, in my Yamaha manual, when I got the bike. They warned, that you wouldn't want to run with the choke on too long, as they mentioned it would produce excess heat, and could discolour your exhaust (pipes). Why does anyone need to run with the choke on...

    First time on main road

    lol. The nervousness, and clumsy handling of your controls, will pass. Practice makes perfect. Once your nerves calm down, and you lose the "death grip" on your handle-bars, you'll actually start to enjoy this. :-) First highway ride will be nerve rattling - but you'll overcome that too...

    M2 Exit

    Really, would they deduct or fail you for this? What if it's a really long light? I usually do the "safer" or "recommended" one foot planted down, the other foot resting on my rear brake method, but if we're talking about sitting at a light for a couple of minutes, I usually put both feet down...
