Too add, I found this YouTube series on the road which served as inspiration. https://youtu.be/FJY5iix_gAY Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Been watching this thread as I was leaving for Quebec at the same time. I made it to Lac Saint-Jean in two days, and although I made several rest stops, I was mainly hauling *** most of the way but as much off the major highways as possible. Good to test my limits, but I agreed with a lot of...

Staring at it now. The locals at the former Shed are doubtful of May 15..

Retro.. you pull through for me again kind sir! THANK YOU.

Hi all... I've got a stripped spark plug hole on my 1969 CB350. (Yes. I was stupid). I've got the cylinder head off, and looking for any recommendations on somebody that could install a "Time-sert" for me in GTA or surrounding area. A mechanic or a friendly forum member. I hear time-serts are...

If like last year, if you go Saturday, you will be forced to buy a ticket for the two days (as in, since you can basically camp there overnight). However, when you leave Saturday all you need to do is tell the people at the gate your not coming back and you get the Sunday money back.

A great day for a ride. Near the forks.

So this thread has also informed me about this winding road Tom Tom feature which seems perfect for how I ride. Question for the iphone users, is the disk space and price really worth it considering the free options (minus winding road)? I also looked at the screenshots in the App Store, and was...

"Fog of world", just checked it out. Clever, and speaks to me, but a bit steep at 4.99. Do you need this open at all times to record?

I have a RAM mount. The one with the "finger grip" holder. I agree you should always take it with you as mine has an arm and wing nut which makes it all easily removable. It's held my phone perfectly (and I only use four of the "fingers", not six plus the top and bottom holders with my iphone...

Thanks all. Durham is a bit far for me... However I'm in touch with Jeff at The Local Wingnut that TC Moto kindly recommended. I'm in North York. I'll report back!

TC moto. Thank you.

Hi all. I too am looking for a vintage bike mechanic for some carb work on my 69 CB350 and found an ad on kijiji that sounds familiar to the one you complained about. Can you tell me if you think this is the same mechanic? Here's the link to the ad...

Taximan, Brian. Great suggestion on where to start and how to move forward. Really appreciate your time. Thank you.

Hi all. I have a lovely 1969 CB350 that I rebuilt and have ridden almost daily for the past five years. However, I've been having carb issues with the stock Keihins so I picked up a Mikuni VM30 kit. I spent many hours trying to get them working as they came fitted, but gave up last season...

I thought to all acid batteries regardless or age, but I'd love for somebody to prove me wrong as this is just what I've heard over the years.

Called a battery tender jr (automatic). I've revived partially drained batteries with it, but super drained of check it with a multimeter as you might have damaged it. On a bike that's very sensitive to to this like my old Honda CB its a headache maker.

That illustration is approaching "blackface" territory in my opinion. Not offended, but pretty bottom of the barrel stuff. But then again, somebody at honda approved it.

Charlie Boorman made a series (two season, I think 6 episodes each) called "By any means", the first I think he tours Australia, the second Canada. Not motorbike exclusive and not as entertaining as the "Long way..." series, more travel show than adventure...
