Buh....hump...

Because I've owned a cabin for 20 years, I've never gone camping, but because I've been working on my gsx650f to make it more touring friendly, I've got the bug to try a bit of camping with it. Thing is, I don't have any experience, and until I do, I don't want to blow a fortune on equipment...

Road the Tiger 800. Wasn't impressed, though every review is glowing. The Beemer might be nice.

This jacket is a men's large in red/black. In as-new condition, only worn a couple of times. Just cleaning out my closet. Includes rain liner, armour. See details here: http://www.motorhelmets.com/htm-apparel/scorpion/2009-10/scorpion-apparel-street-jackets-men-mesh-cool-rod.htm Asking...

Just picked up a pair yesterday and am trying to find some knee armour that will fit in the knee pockets. My Fox armour is too big. Any suggestions? The only place I can see to order the actual Bull-it armour is from Australia!

LOL. The Street R is excess to me! But I take your point.

Rider northbound on Morningside near Guildwood Parkway yesterday. Thanks for the helmet pat! I do sometimes exceed 50 kph.

Have you ridden the Street? No reason to go with anything else. The definition of Hooligan bike.

Well, I'll be the lone dissenter. For the street, I find textile to be far more practical. You can wear it all year 'round, hot or cold, rain or shine. It's lighter in weight, lot's of hi-viz options, styles, etc. I did have one low-speed accident in which it held up perfectly. Wouldn't wear it...

Very cool, thanks.

I'm in the same boat. Will follow the thread in case there's a solid lead!

I'm interested. Be nice to ride with a relaxed group at a relaxed pace.

Oops! Sorry, missed that.

A friend just told me that the new HD dealer on Lawrence by the DVP is closed. They had a sale of everything in the store at 50% off. Emailed only existing clients. Bikes were gone in 45 minutes. Heard this from a guy he works with who supposedly picked up a $30K bike for $14K. The place is...

Best thing to do is read your owners manual cover to cover. Then maybe a Haynes manual or similar. I know Centennial College offers a course at their Warden/Eglinton campus.

Just got my renewal from Duffy. $907 -- almost $400 less than last year. Apparently living in Scarborough keeps it high. Jumped $300/yr when I moved here from the Beach.

Yeah, the GSX is a bit heavy, but it's also as stable as a freight train on the highway and comfortable for long trips. And the suspension is adjustable. I sometimes wonder whether those who complain about the suspension have actually tried a proper set-up and decent tires. We're talking...

You guys are crazy. You don't have to do all that to your bike! If I sense impending doom, I just hop off the bike! I wear high-tops, so it's OK.

maybe if the weather holds and they have an east end pick up point. I'd probably only have a couple of hours (hence the desire for an east end joining point) I understand Uxbridge is a nice destination. And there's a nice bakery on the way for coffee and sweets(or whatever) in Goodwood.
