I don't think Ted has time for travelling to do safety anymore. Does anyone know someone mobile that does motorcycle safety?

Does anybody have a contact for an affordable mobile motorcycle safety guy/girl serving the Peel Region/Brampton South? I have a bike declared unfit and dont have a truck to tow it. I found a guy, but his rates are quite high, $150 for safety. If anybody knows anyone that does it for cheap, I...

Hey guys, after talking to you guys, and taking to people on Yamaha R3 forum, I finally decided to go with this Aussie brand: http://www.motobatt.us/MBTX7U-Motobatt-12V-Battery MOTOBATT MTX7U It is slightly expensive in price compared to the OEM one (Yamaha 1WD-H2100-00 BATTERY ASSY (GS...

So True! I dont wanna be in somewhere like Tobermory and the bike wont start. I might bite the bullet and just buy it for now.

Point taken, but most of the time just because something is inexpensive doesn't necessarily mean it is crap too.

Riceburner got it Yamaha #: GSGTZ8V Yuasa HIGH PERFORMANCE AGM: YTZ8V Yuasa AGM: YTX7L-BS

Yeah, I don't think I can buy anything bigger. I tried fitting the battery in, and it barely sits. There are some foams around it though that I could remove. But I will still look for 130-131 mm height. 100-140 cca and around 7-8 Ah.

I just checked SaskBatt. They don't seem to have my specs. I have scoured the web, haha couldnt find anything under 150 bucks, and cheaper ones are all in the US who wont ship to Canada (battery shipping is not allowed via UPS/USPS apparently). Does anybody have a familiarity with a store that...

Thank you everyone! I am looking to buy this one, as it is right next to my home: https://www.kapscomoto.com/ca/motorcycle-electrical-parts/power-wiring/batteries/ytx7l-bs-sealed-maintenance-free-battery-12v-7ah-kmg-motorcycle-scooter-atv.html The OEM battery is 7.4 Ah, 120 CCA 12V. This one...

Yeah, it is a 2015 model and due for a battery change anyways after 4 years of use. I am gonna order a new one in. It bump started, so I don't think there is any issues with any other parts of the bike anyways.

It is not a clear plastic case unfortunately. It was just in the garage parked there for the winter, so close to sub zero temperature as it is not a heated one. I am using the standard battery tender recommended by many to charge the battery so it shouldn't be charging at too high of a rate. Do...

I charged it overnight, but battery tender color was solid green the whole time, which according to the battery tender means it is fully charged.

Yes, my friend pushed the bike and I was actually able to get my 2015 Yamaha R3 going and was able to ride.

Yes, that is what worries me. Is there a place I can take the battery to that load tests it? It's the 2015 Yamaha R3.

Hey guys, so I had left my bike without charge for over 6 months. Recently, I started the bike and it wasn't starting (Lights were on, but the ignition would not work). So, we push started it and put it in neutral for around 5 minutes. After, I took the battery out and put it on battery tender...

I ride because I love to. I put around 4000 kms on the CBR300R last season. LMAO, I was just mentioning what I observed. With my 300R, I would ride and nobody would really care about what I rode. But, ever since I upgraded, the duke 690 gets complemented all the time. So, I figured I would ask...

Hey all, so I used to ride a CBR300R, and even though I enjoyed riding it and put 4000 km in a year, it mostly went unnoticed on the streets. But now, I upgraded to a duke 690, and pretty much every day I ride, I get complemented on the bike. Like people at red lights admiring the bike, asking...

I upgraded today. Went from 2 years in CBR300R Abs to now Duke 690. The bike is pretty cool, just went on a 4 hour joy ride. Highway, country roads, breaks, clutch control, I love it! The seller was cool, looked like he maintained it well. Was riding with temp stickers, haha got pulled over, was...

This bike has a bunch of upgrades, but I have seen the prices of 696s go from around 5800 in December to now 8400-10000. One thing I learned is buying in the season is around 25% more than from September-March.

The guy says he has never taken the bike to a mechanic, and he did all the oil, filter changes and maintenance himself. He even told me he changed the exhaust, added windshield and did the maintenance by himself. Looking at the maintenance on the bike, the cleanliness and everything, I figured...
