    Ok, so why do supermoto riders need helmets with peak visors?

    These style helmets look awesome, especially on riders with dual sport and adventure style bikes. Just like most helmets it can look out of place though, imagine a guy on a chopped harley all in leather with one of these on haha the snakeskin one my buddy has is awesome. I think its an icon variant

    Big ass ticket

    Well it sucks but we make decisions, we face consequences. How we react to those consequences is what defines us. We all know the rules, whether they are "fair" or not is irrelevant. Want no speed limit? Move to Germany for the autobahn

    Big ass ticket

    How about you just don't do 130 in a 60, and if you get caught accept the fact that you chose to break the law! These kinds of actions give a bad name to all motorcyclists. It's funny how its usually the people who speed like this complaining about how the province hates motorcyclists......why...

    Difficulty Making Turns on Bigger Bike

    I am no pro myself but I have done my time in my driveway and parking lot practicing low speed maneuvers until I was comfortable spinning circles There's a great movie on youtube "twist of the wrist" I think it was called. Goes very in depth about throttle control and how using it properly will...

    Difficulty Making Turns on Bigger Bike

    I watched very large men turn very large Harleys inside what cannot have been more than a 15 foot diamter circle over and over without falling at the Toronto motorcycle show. Not to be rude but if you can't u turn in a street on a supersport bike than you really need to practice. Alot (Not...

    Planning to get a DRZ400 this season, what to check, how to safety?

    Especially since it is a one cylinder. I made the mistake of jumping into a 4 cylinder 4 carb Yamaha. Mistake because I didn't know how to tune one carb let alone 4

    Haha it won't. Just get a service manual, follow the service intervals and look for info online. You should have no trouble maintaining this bike

    But if someone realllllly wants it, odds are they'll take it. I would think that if thieves are going to risk stealing a bike, they'd go for a more expensive brand like harley or ducati or beamer

    If you're really worried about theft than invest in a good loud alarm and a solid disk lock. And always park as close to the front entrance as possible so if someone does try something, odds are there will be other people nearby. Never hurts to sneakily disconnect something during a long shift...

    Planning to get a DRZ400 this season, what to check, how to safety?

    Especially low revving engines. The industry has people tricked. If you change your oil regularily and do your maintenance than any jap bike will easily surpass 100k km

    Likelihood of keeping your first brand new bike?

    I bought a bike from 1980, with 25000km on, for $1000. I have put maybe $600 into it over the last two summers and have put 12000km on it. Anyone who tells you a used bike is a bad idea had no clue what they're saying. If you know what to look for than I don't see why anyone would buy new...

    Vetter?

    Well I ended up getting my hands on a mount that works. It came off of a cb750, not an absolutely perfect fit but definitely secure and level enough.

    Based on what you can do yourself and what you would need to get a shop to do, you can decide what to trade off for price.

    Planning to get a DRZ400 this season, what to check, how to safety?

    What year would you be looking to get? There's no "acceptable mileage" and at 30 thou km, the bike would be right in its prime pending its age. Here's what I go through when looking at a used bike: 1 - safety (brake lines, pads, tires) 2 - does it start, idle and rev without bogging...
