    Motorcycle to car trade

    I might have to get rid of my bike (2008 Vulcan 500) and get a car really quick. Just wondering if there is a dealership near or around the city that can do this kind of trade? I'll probably end up selling my bike privately, but figured it would be worth checking out if there is somewhere...

    Battery terminal corroded and rusty

    Thanks guys. I cleaned off most of the corrosion, but still can't get the terminals disconnected. Going to try and pickup some penetrating oil and see if that helps. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd love to hear it. This is annoying because my bike is parked on the street...

    Battery terminal corroded and rusty

    So my friend's battery was dead and I offered to lend my charger. I keep the connector attached to my battery because i also power a usb charger off of it. Anyways, went to remove it, and noticed that the negative terminal was crusted with green and white stuff. Was fiddling around trying to...

    Bike Trade-ins

    Hey guys So I'm thinking about selling/trading in my motorcycle possibly next season. I know private sales are the way to go in terms of value, but I have a feeling I'm not going to have the time and patience to deal with all the craigslist kijiji stuff so I'm thinking about (maybe) bringing it...

    Replacing Tires

    hey everyone, I ride a Vulcan 500 and need to get my tires replaced. I've never gotten new tires before, and don't actually know what I should be looking for in terms of type and brands etc. I mostly ride in the city, but I'm aiming to go for longer rides soon. Any suggestions or recommendations?

    A little love for Town Moto

    Ha. I've been to Town Moto a couple of times, and it has always been after a big bowl of pho and spring rolls from Golden Turtle. They do carry some cool stuff in the store. Although I did feel like a poser wanting to buy all their Triumph clothing and accessories. But I agree with everyone...

    Really bad Motoretta experience

    Yeah, she finally demanded a refund on her deposit today. They had offered her a large discount on the bike and promised that it would be in by February previously, so she held out a little longer because she really did like the bike.

    Really bad Motoretta experience

    The worst part is that they've called my girlfriend back like three times today, blaming Cleveland Cyclewerks for the delay. Duh, we know there were issues on their part, but it's how you dealt with the situation with your paying customers is what infuriates us.

    Really bad Motoretta experience

    Wow, what a management team! My girlfriend had put in a deposit LAST May for one of their Cleveland Cyclewerks bikes. I know most of you think those bikes aren't good, but she thought it'd be a fun little bike to kick around the city with. Anyways, the bikes kept getting delayed and they...

    Any sidecar owners here?

    that's amazing. And I was going to comment on the goggles and harness too. LOL. Where do you get them, and how do you get your dog to leave the goggles on??? I feel like mine would just constantly remove them...

    Any sidecar owners here?

    I want a sidecar...to put my dog in for rides! Does anyone actually do that? I think it'd be a blast!

    Tough Mudder

    I only found out about Tough Mudder after a bunch of my friends completed the one in Vancouver last weekend. Totally interested in registering, but I'm feeling like I need more time to train for this year's Toronto event in August. I'm pretty sure I'm going to register for next year either for...

    Tendonitis while riding

    thanks for the tips...definitely going to get a palm throttle and see if that helps my right hand. And I'll probably make an appointment with physio and see what they have to say.

    Tendonitis while riding

    tendonitis was diagnosed my doctor, and both chiro and physio I used to see. I haven't been to either because the pain hadn't come back in a while, until I started riding this season. I hope I don't need any type of surgery! How long was that recovery??

    Tendonitis while riding

    yeesh. I guess I'll try making an appointment for physio to see if they can help, and take some ibuprofen for now.

    Tendonitis while riding

    Hey all, so I'm a cook and have developed wrist tendonitis on both hands from working. I've been able to modify my work habits to keep from aggravating it, but I've been noticing that when I ride it gets pretty bad from using the clutch and brake. Anyone else have this problem and have any...
