All I can add is that I borrowed one for a few hours and it seems to always want more throttle so it wasn't much of a joy for touring; more for strafing twisties. An acquaintance in Milan, ie. 100% Italian, has owned Ducati 998's and 1098. He recognized the TL name right away and thought highly...

OOOoohh. That red display has the look of a 1988 Panasonic car radio. Bravo.

DUI, Collision with an injury, assault = 3 time loser in one hour. Way to go. "This life's hard, man, but it's harder if you're stupid!"

Back to the OT - should have kept your head. http://youtu.be/m6JwkrOi1eI

Belt buckle? I'd be limping big time if my belt buckle hit something hard enough to do that. And where are the scratches. What does Kawi make their tanks from? No, I'm calling "athletic cup". Did you notice a hint of Adam's apple on this buyer?

Cops serve the additional function of saving big mouths and bullies from a beat down by the average citizens who don't feel like going being cuffed and charged for creaming someone who clearly needs it. Mind you, there's been a few times they offered to go next door for a coffee while things got...

No end of amusement this evening and yes I had a boring day so this was the highlight. The next pump over from me at the gas station has a ginormous HD 131 Screaming something or other with cases the size of portable kennels, all airbrushed with an admittedly quality paint job and very clean...

Truce. I'm ducking my head into the room. To me it's about muscle memory. If I get to the point I'm thinking too much about the basics, time to revisit them. Habits die off, reflexes slow down. It's a fact of life. My first season riding was 18 months after the course and I was worried I might...

Probably less than 5% of the people on here would suggest an older economical bike for under $2,000 that would be big enough, moderate seating position that takes the weight off your spine, hauls *** all day and still fits in your shed, like I have. So play around with this graphic calculator...

Yup, as of last night they are expecting 14,000 (don't know if that's bikes or people) and 120+ vendors. Places are clearing out extended parking spaces and finishing up the patio bars as fast as they can. I'll be riding through the whole mess to get to Buckhorn for a meeting, which is exactly...

This got me thinking of my idea last year of having a B&B for riders and around Calabogie was looking good. I'd need to find a place with a large building linked to the main house that could have a covered space to drive under on arrival when it's raining. Then inside have divided lock up units...

I just got out of a meeting with Chamber of Commerce people and asked how plans are going. Two weeks ago they expected 5-6,000. Now they expect 14,000 and over 120 vendors. This is only year two. http://www.bikefest.ca/

I won't comment on this particular case, because I have no first hand knowledge, and recently I've seen how forums on any past time can quickly generate a lynch mob mentality. However, I agree bad service can really sour a customer and the tale gets told umpteen times. Heck, I'm still p!$$ed at...

I'd go with that. It's not a good reasoning in my mind as a sole alternative to taking the bus. On the other hand, I'm one of those people that came into at the right time for me, though later in life and I freekin' LOVE IT. The only thing that surprises me is that even though he's a keyboard...

I have a 1979 Special. Let me know if I can point you to any online resources or pick my brains on what I've gone through and fixed myself.

Scala just looks old. It's the safe bet and many retailers don't venture from what their customers are already ingrained to ask for. I have a pair of original SMH-10's One of the sets took a total hosing on the ground when I don't know how much water or for how long from a holding tank at a...

I'm searching everywhere for clues. This issue is not commonly defined like some handling problems but someone else nailed it as handling like it's on marbles. The bike feels like both wheels want to roll out from under me to the same side. So if you picture an axis running through the headlight...

I was one of those that for years thought all the gadgets must be a distraction but I am entering my second season with Sena SMH-10s and can see where they actually RELAX me while riding. My preference if I have to make a business trip of over an hour each way (and there's lots of those - and...

Wow. I'm surprised you have your mind still working clearly after that - and this - http://youtu.be/gB-u2MztMeA
