Yeh, rear tire sliding out, it's not me falling over. And yes, brand spanking new rear tire. Probably 20 km on it when it was dropped off and another 10-15 or so by me at very low speed. The brand, fyi, is Continental on the rear. The front used but probably in decent condition since it...

You were all right. Amazing how we sometimes have to refer to basics 101 in order to move forward. I was doing many things wrong, from expecting it to turn similar to a 250, watching the spot where I thought I'd fall and that's exactly where I fell, too slow, too narrow of a turn, not looking...

I've recently upgraded from a Ninja 250 to a 2002 GSXR 750 with complete Akropovic Exhaust and Power Commander. A bit more intimidating and faster/stronger than the average gixxer 750, which makes me wish I spent more time on my 250. Also wish I had gotten a 600 before the 750...

Yeh, perhaps it is the wrong shape for my alien looking round head. Whitby looks more promising as opposed to ordering and shelling out more money to waste again. Hopefully I'll have a perfect fit by the 64th try

Love the new (used) helmet, Shoei x-eleven. Only problem I'm having again is it's sliding forward. It slides forward to a point where you can only see my eyes, it covers my eyebrows. This can't possibly be normal, is it? Is there a fix for this issue? Everything else is perfect, nice and...

I used to have a spray cleaner for the bimmer; just spray and wipe with a rag and it literally cleaned and shined as if just came out of premium car wash. Was pretty handy considering I wouldn't take it to carwashes (I babied it and carwashes damage paint) and was too time consuming to hand...

Holy fukc some of you guys really had it bad. Thanks for sharing; I can't emphasize enough how careful I ride now due to this thread

This one looks massive - very spacious which is a priority. How does is compare to what you guys own in size/space? OAKLEY ICON 3.0 BACKPACK http://www.ebay.com/itm/Oakley-Icon-Backpack-3-0-NEW-Red-Line-Red-Black-Up-to-15-Laptop-Pack-/301599296493

Considering everything you guys said.... None of what I was looking for are in local stores and I didn't want chancing it without trying them on considering what you guys said. So I tried my luck on kijiji and found one I really liked by Shoei, the x-eleven dragon model. Looked fabulous, fit...

Anyone know if any shop carries this Shoei RF-1200 Inception Helmet local, within the GTA? http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/shoei-rf-1200-inception-helmet

A very decent selection to choose from and service to start with. As someone mentioned above, we would LOVE a place to hangout when we come in to buy something that serves beverages, food, drinks, coffee etc and just shoot the s_h_i_t. It's a great business idea and something different...

Just got back from trying on a Shoei RF1200, sized Large, and if fit perfect. Sh*t, you never know how much of a ******* thing you have 'til you try something else. Felt great. Are they amongst the better Shoei helmets? If a Large Shoei fit just perfect does that mean it's safe to say...

Couldn't ask for better replies, thnx fellas

Very informative vid^, clarifies a lot of misconceptions I had. So if that's the case then how do you guys order helmets online without worrying about how it would fit? I'm looking at some Arai and Shoei helmets on Revzilla (hope it's a good site) but concerned about fit. I don't think...

When you ride your sportbike and get in a tucked-in position with head low looking up, do you find the upper portion of your helmet blocks your vision? Mine does (it's a large) and I also find it difficult to see behind me when I want to do a complete shoulder check. It's not snug either but...

I can't do the single strap anymore, I find I'm always adjusting it at every stop

Nice, I like that. I didn't even know backpacks could hold helmets. How's the comfort and space inside?

What backpacks are you guys sporting on your sportbikes? Is there a specific preference to them or any will do? I can't do my shoulder bag over my neck and across chest anymore - just inconvenient

You're story of awareness and extra care while riding couldn't have come at a better time with the season approaching (or already here for some). I commend you on your bravery to get back on and ride again. I recently upgraded to a gsxr750 and had a very, very minor fall and luckily into the...

Kijiji baby, great stuff, super cheap.
