    SOON TO BE RIDER, Just saying hi!

    For me seat height was always an issue - try as many of them out as you can and see which one is most comfortable.

    riding school

    Go with Humber - they have a new fleet of the Honda CBR 125s, super easy to ride. They have 3 locations in the GTA. The instructors are very patient and the course is tax deductible - beacuse its counted as a post secondary course - you get a tax reciept from it. I've taken different courses...

    Beginner - Never rode, excited but so many questions

    Try SV650 - nice bike. Now for the rest - go to Humber- sign up for the course. Boot around on their brand new CBR125s - get your M2. Write it off on your income tax next year.

    Sheridan Rider Training Program - Cancelled for 2014

    It could be a lot of things - liability? Their CSC certification? Anything. Or maybe just the cost of running the program. I wonder if their program was tax deductible.

    Cone air filter on 2001 Honda shadow

    Don't -it will cause more problems than it's worth. You can check out the mods I've done on my bike off my profile - I have a Shadow as well. And to answer your question, yes, I had the cone, and yes - took it off. I'm back to the stock air box and OEM filter, runs better- K and N sitting in...

    2001 shadow 750 spirit oil change

    The CT jack won't help on the oil changes - the front arm is right under the drain plug. Use a low cut triangle oil pan (Princess Auto), a 17mm wrench, a filter wrench (princess auto) - that all you need. As for oil - go to Royal and see what they have.

    Criss-cross pattern for removing cylinder head cover bolts?

    start at the 10 o clock then go to 4o clock position, 2 o clock then 8 and keep going that way. Just keep track of where the bolts cam from and if you're not confident -grab a digital camera and take step by step pics. Good luck

    Managed to strip 2009 250r oil filter bolt and drain bolt - help!

    Usually a 17mm wrench is all you need. Hand tighten the bolt and move it a 1/4 turn and that should do it. No real need for a torque wrench. As for the bolt -have you called Royal to see if they have one there?
