depends on the bike and depends on the neighborhood. I've it's an expensive bike, theft is likely. If it's not an expensive bike, you'll probably be okay if you not in a high traffic area. In a high traffic area your taking your chances with drunk idiots and crack heads that might knock it over...

Get an Arai. I just picked up a brand new Vector 2 off of ebay for only $300 including shipping. Deals can be found regularly on Arai's. You just need to be patient and jump on them when you see them. My previous helmet was an Shoei Rf1000. I thought it was a fantastic helmet, until i tried...

get a 250. especially if you plan on ever going on the highway.

when i was selling my old bike i had some crazy offers too. One guy offered to trade me for two old ford exporers that each had over 250,000 km on them. One of which was not running. He sent me pics. They were on a lawn with waist high grass growing around them. Another guy offered to trade...

I haven't seen anything in the news lately about any motorcycle fatalities. That must mean that winter riders are in fact safer riders than those that only ride during the summer. ;)

Re: Helme Ebay!! I've been keeping my eyes open for ones priced that low for a while. A couple have come up witha buy it now option of between $250-$300, but they kept getting bought by the time I could message the seller about the price of shipping. Last week one came up as a true...

Re: Helme I just bought a brand new Arai Vector 2 shipped to my door for only $298. $270 before shipping. Quite pleased with this deal. My last helmet was a Shoei RF1000. It took a hit in my crash, so I had to repace it for safety reasons.

IMO it makes more sense to just ride and change your route up. Save the hassle and cost of shipping your bike to a foreign country. Would also save you the cost of a flight.

your purchase price has nothing to do with it. It's based on the repair price and then market value. If your bike is damaged, Take it to a dealer/repair shop and have the statefarm agent meet you there with a mechanic. Do not have them come see it at your home. If they come to your place, they...

my play lists are usually pretty eclectic. Everything from house and techno to industrial, soul, funk, disco, and heavy metal.

Good to have her back. Riding strong too!

I went out on Saturday for a bit. So nice to get back out there. First real ride I've had since I crashed back in October. Not including when the repairs were done and I rode home from the dealer. ;) Can't wait for the spring!!! :)

When i say filtering, I'm refering to moving between stopped traffic. Like moving to front at a red light. When i say lane splitting, I'm refering to actually driving between moving vehicles. Like as in you have a death wish.

Went for a quick ride on Christmas day. Only got my bike back from the show a couple of weeks before that. Only riden twice since i crashed in early October. BUT, the VFR is riding stronger than ever! :D It's my parents garage right now. covered, but that's it. Tempted to take it for a spin...

If you know where he lives, he would have to be pretty stupid to try and sell a stolen bike. I wouldn't be concerned if he has the ownership to and everything matches. BUT, he can get the UVIP without leaving his house. You can order it on the MTO site and it gets delivered within a few...

So the repair bill is about $6000. Statefarm opted to pay for the repairs. I must admit, I was kind of suprised to find that out since it is more than the bike is worth. Now hopefully I can get back on the road before the season is over!

I'm with statefarm as well. The guy came to my place, went over the bike, printed out an estimate and the cheque came in the mail a few days later. I told him that I needed to get it towed to the dealer and checked out for additional damage. I guess they only look for the obvious stuff. he said...

So my bike finally went in this week to get checked out and fixed.. Just got a call from the dealer. They've been going over the list of parts the insurance company provided and making a list of their own. The insurance company's cheque was for just under 3k. So far the dealer has a list that's...
