I got a new Icon jacket for $80 and took it on my trip. It breathes well since the middle portion is textile and the sides unzip for a more relaxed fit which lets the wind blow in. It also has leather sleeves so it's stronger in a crash. The fact that it's a mix between textile and leather makes...

We ended up pushing to 1500km on the second day of our trip. We even stopped in St Louis for about 2 hours and a few stops to eat and rest. It was not "fun" but it did give us an extra insurance day for California/the trip back. It is possible to do long days but i would never again plan to do...

That's pretty cool. All of my family on my moms side lives in blind river/algoma. Me and my buddy were going to take the jeep with a trailer up there and check out the roads.

I got a box of these and used one for clean clothes, one for dirty clothes and one for food. http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/browse/3/HouseHome/StorageOrganization/ContainersBinsTotes/PRD~0530261P/Ziploc+Extra-Extra-Large+Heavy-Duty+Storage+Bags%2C+3-Pk.jsp?locale=en

If you're worried about wind there is always aftermarket wind screens. I got this for my monster and i'm sure they make something like that for the tripple or the honda. http://www.nationalcycle.com/catalogue/zoom/VS-N28213-600.html It just clamps around the forks. On and off in a couple...

Now that i think about it. WTF GP i didn't get a catalogue. lol

My insurance broker sent me a hand written birthday card which was nice. This was pretty awesome tho since it was a gift, a card and a gift card.

LOL buy a bike from them next year and i guess you will get your gift :lmao:

I did order parts which is why i wondered how the stuff came from Italy in 2 days. This was way better. I always try to give GP my business first, this makes me feel good about it.

I opened my mail today and wondered why i had something from GP. Did anyone else get a package?

My friend has a k1300s and came from an r1. He says its not as much fun but it is a much better ride. My girlfriends dad has a r1200cl. He clicked over 100,000 km and while on a trip had the rear bearing let go and damage his whole rear end. $3000 in repairs. He said he will still buy another...

That seems a bit fake. "Holy **** dude your face is ripped off. Wait a second, i have to take a picture."

I'm 26. I have my M2 with a 2012 monster 696 full coverage no tickets/accidents. In Mississauga. $169/mo. or $2028/yr. No car with state farm (They want WAY to much for cars.) The stupid thing is if i wanted an R6 they said $125/mo or $1500/yr

That cop drives like a boss.

If you plan to do the valves in the winter you can just take everything apart and measure and order the shims you need. This way you don't need to spend hundreds on shims you don't need. I do like the idea of the EMSDuc shim retainers tho. (http://emsduc.com/products.html) Also if you don't...

My monster has been great. I bought it in February and put 20,000km on it. I checked my valves and they don't need to be adjusted. I don't ride gentle either. Fairly regularly up to redline. I always put 300V in and use a good filter. Oil changes are easy as pie (about 10-15 min. including...

It was something like $80 for the molded plugs and $180 with shure headphones in them. I am going to get them this year. I did 20,000 KM this year with no plugs at all. Not great for a already hard of hearing person.

I have the ctek 3300 and it is great. I use it on the bike, my car, truck and sometimes my gas power welder. I've had it for about 3-4 years and it is almost constantly on between those vehicles and it has never had a problem.

The only thing i found to be an actual deal at the shows are the bikes. Unless you like cheap garbage gloves/boots/jackets.

They are WAY different. Most of the stuff is the same between the stores but how often they replace the prepped food after it doesn't sell is way different. As is the way they spice the cooked veggies/rice/meat. I have found the best one to be at 401/Winston Churchill. Also MB has spicy bacon...
