I took the M1X course at Centennial back in 2010. I'd say they were pretty good; they definitely corrected some bad habits I had at the time, as I'd been riding for about a month and a half or so prior to taking the course. The instructors were knowledgeable and spent adequate time with...

Hey folks. Figured it would be a good idea to update at least one of the Ballistic threads, as my experience with the battery has changed rather drastically. Wednesday night I was at KC for a bit. Leaving there, electronics were dim & bike struggled to crank as if the battery was cold --...

Orange new-gen V-Strom 650, riding south on the DVP around 10:15PM tonight. I joined you on the 401-DVP ramp on my silver & black '05 Wee. Nice ride!

Not stopping at the Stop sign. Even if you're not going to go through insurance (which makes sense), this lady clearly didn't care to make sure if you were OK, couldn't separate herself from her cigarette for a moment to help with your bike, and then took off as soon as you were busy for a...

Re: Kahuna closing? Yup, bankrupt but they claimed otherwise until the very last day. "Just moving", or "changing to a service-only shop" etc... Even the last day they were open, they were trying to take orders from customers etc. I know of at least one rider whose bike wound up getting...

I'm not a track rider by any means, and wear more of a touring style of gear, so I would probably not personally have need for a full set of race leathers, etc. But based on posts in this thread (by both sides) and the quality or lack thereof, of Velocity suits I've seen in person, I would now...

Find them and kill them!

Yep. I've gotta say, even as someone who's spent time downtown on these already-confusing streets... that just looks insane. Nothing about how this has been done makes any sense to me.

I've been going to 22 Customs since 2010, and for the most part have been happy with their work and friendly attitude... but the last time I visited, they were in a rush to close up shop, and my GF & I left feeling a bit uncomfortable with the quality of work that was done, as well as the rate...

Rode by the scene with a few friends around 11pm as well, this didn't look good at all. Hard to make out what was left of the bike, at the time it looked like possibly a black SS, that's about all I could really make out though I thought I saw gold/bronze coloured forks (a Kawi perhaps?) As...

Just rode through Simcoe tonight with a few friends. It's kind of confusing going through there, at one point we thought we were going the wrong way down a one-way street. lol.

Was riding with a buddy of mine and we came across this e-bike rider who had a FULL-GROWN IGUANA on his head. Couldn't believe our freakin' eyes. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P90jEJpaC1Q

Anything going on tonight?

We usually do Old Finch and then Twyn Rivers, did a few runs back and forth today. Then just head out to wherever from there :P

We saw you too! There were 6 of us, varied bikes as you said. Black ZX6R, red Daytona, white Gladius, white 125R, green 250R, and me on my V-Strom :P

I got caught in the storm yesterday when I was heading back home from Woodbridge. Felt like portions of the 400 were flooded/flooding, and I got off at Keele to take cover. Good choice, as most of the roads around there were also flooding, to the point I had water a good 5-6" or more deep at...

I partially agree, but a postal code is still enough for someone to scope out the area and potentially spot the bike/rider if they happen to be parked outside, etc. When posting on Kijiji etc, if an address/postal code is absolutely necessary -- I'll use that of a nearby mall or other public...

SO to get this thread back on topic... Rider on a black streetfightered SS last night around 10:30PM with no headlights, next to me in my cage at the red light heading south on Morningside at Sheppard. When I told you that you had no headlights, you looked over the front of your bike and then...

My own answers -- Regarding the chain wax/lube: I have used various products, but the main one for about the past 1.5-2 years has been DuPont Teflon Chain Saver. Prior to that I used Belray briefly, and Maxima Chain Wax for probably 2 years before that. 2010 Ninja 250R had over 27,000km on...

Hey folks, Here's a fun little poll that might be of use to both new and experienced riders alike. Wondering who's using what chain wax/lube product (yes there's tons of threads on this), but additionally, what kind of mileage you're getting out of your chains & sprockets, as well as your...
