    Bike run over by cab!

    yikes. kudos to you for doing the right thing. Most people, including riders, may not realize how expensive some repairs can be. My opinion has always been to quote the selling price of the bike as if you are to put it up on kijiji, and see their reaction. If they flinch and start bargaining...

    I refuse to wave to these two wheel up front trikes .

    wow.... Do you wave to a 5yr old kid if she's waving at you waiting to cross an intersection? Not waving doesn't have anything to do with motorcycle... it totally has to do with your attitude. By the way, when I'm out in the remote areas and see the odd cyclists tugged in and giving it all...

    Visited Kahuna for the first time today with my wife.

    I am also chiming in here... Bought 2 brand new bikes from Kahuna within the last 3 years, and not a single hiccup. Everything went smooth and delivered on date of promise. Salesperson is Norm, great guy to deal with. Both bikes were picked up first week of April as well (so-called busy time)

    Lets talk about Commuter mods/add ons

    I was thinking a USB charge outlet maybe useful, but then I was thinking of picking up an AntiGravity pac... As for luggage, nothing beats a hard case that you can lock right on the bike. Great for helmets when you got off the bike.

    How safe is your pair of gloves? Pics.

    I have a few pairs of gloves in my rotation. 2 stood out: #1) HELD Phantom - low-sided at low speed (70km/h) and slid on the palms. Stingray hide took the blunt and they looked just a little worn. No rash or damages to my hands & fingers. My only complain is on how hard it is to get these...

    Heated VR-PRO Gloves

    Thanks for the review. Wondering if you may consider a "dunk test" on waterproof? Eventually water will soak through, but waterproof should take a lot longer than water resistant. That's an element I look for, especially with fall riding weather.

    Suzuki denies GSXR brake recall???!

    +1. Wow, thank you for sharing. I hope other dealers will take note. Sometimes, it's not just bombarding the forum with sale ads that'll attract customers and build loyalty. Transparency goes a long way. Much appreciated.

    Winterizing your motorcycle

    Just wondering if I am doing something wrong here: Last winter, I didn't hook up my battery to a tender. All I did was disconnected it from the bike and left it in a ventilated area within my home away from the sun. After 4 months, connected it back onto the bike and no issues starting up...

    Highway speed and wind

    250s are fine on any highway. You don't need to pass trucks or cars at motogp speed. The wind issue just takes practice, as more experience you have, the lesser you'll "fight" the wind. There are some experienced folks on this forum who commutes with less than 250cc on a daily basis, and they...
