    I always thought those things just kind of peeled off but I was driving beside a transport one day and the damn things actually blow. Noise and debris everywhere ... Scared the ***** out of me

    Belleville --- RIP

    My son told me he just heard that his friend was killed in a motorcycle accident in Belleville tonight. He has no details other than the text he received from someone who was at hospital with him. He was VSA at scene, and didnt make it. Another young one gone far too soon. RIP Stay safe...

    Question for those lucky enough to have more than 1 bike

    Do you look at your collection and wonder if you are wasting money? they have to be insured and maintained and what if you find you only ride one of them a handful of times, but can't bring yourself to part with it? Is it nuts to have more than 2?

    Afx fx-39-ds

    I have one and only complaint is I wish I could open the visor a little as another poster mentioned. Other than that, I like it. Ordered mine online from Jaffrum as price was best and shipping was good. FYI Dualsportplus has an HJC helmet on sale right now. Might want to check it out. They...

    Shady sellers and time wasters

    I despise selling stuff so much I think I take less just to save myself ongoing hassle. I don't know why but so many buyers automatically assume that I'm desperate for money and will take anything. So sick of getting emails with ridiculous offers but they have cash and will take it home today...

    Wish everyone got to see the nice side of motorcyclists

    does good in this one for sure but in some of his other vids he's being a bit of a dick IMHO by revving his bike at lights and watching the people react to get out of the way...

    Selling a used bike in Ontairo

    Not true for all transactions...if play it right it can benefit both. The seller can sometimes negotiate for closer to the asking price if the buyer and seller can agree to write up a receipt for much less. Example: suppose best offer I have so far is 3000 bucks, but Joe Blo says he will...

    Think it's worth it?

    I know ideally taking a few pairs of proper shirts etc would be better, but they can be pretty pricy. So, was wondering if any of you who for for 3-4 day trips have gone to a thrift store and bought several 2 dollar tee shirts to take, then just tossed them at the end of a sweaty day of riding...

    2013 touring: where are the CLOSEST mountain roads to Ontario?

    I live in belleville and sure wish I'd discovered just how close great roads in upper NY State are years ago instead of the last couple. An extra bonus is the cheaper gas and food prices. Maybe I have rosy glasses, but drivers seem to be more courteous or better educated. On the expressways I...

    Too old to ride?

    You make a good point, but I dont think cruiser is the way to go. I have my beloved SV1000S and I'm hitting 56 but find it too hard on the knees for day trips any more. Last year I thought of selling it and getting a cruiser, but any I rode gave me a sore back way earlier than my knees started...
