Thank you. The rear brakes would not have helped as I lost balance on the bump I did not see as I was not paying attention to the road (did not see the sign), forgot about the speed bump (went through it going east but going back west I did not remember about it), and following the car in front...

No I meant it as for whoever is leading. More that everybody knows about each other's experience, easier for leader to know what hes dealing with. Now you guys also get to know I have falling experience too :P

Yes that would be it. And yes matthew, I caught up to the car just before the corner approaching those bumpers. Usually thats not an issue but I realize that and not paying attention to the road like jc100's description can be a very bad combo.

I can't get the existing screw out.

Yes today. At around 6 or so. I went to the ice cream shop to sit and recover, they turned the sign closed just after I went in, which was 7. I am ok, thanks for all the well wishes.

One was a standing drop. If I remember correctly I was too tired before I was about to park the bike. This is the first real street drop, and it was because I was not paying attention.

Got my bike damaged today. Relevant story if you want to look: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/showthread.php?174920-Fell-down-on-Forks-of-the-Credit Damage to bike: http://imgur.com/a/q306f#2 #1: I got the light cover back on, but I'm not sure what that gasket is for, so I just used it...

I decided to ride out today before coming back to do the maintenance stuff, since the weather was real nice today I thought. I happened to be browsing gorideontario.ca and decided to try out Terra Cotta and Forks of the Credit. I fell down at Forks of the Credit right after one of the speed...

Riding resume for leader lol.

Picked up the bike stand from Kapsco, big thanks to man in R1 for showing me how he does his chain clean and lube there. Picked up Motul 5100 10W40 (semi-synth) 4L oil and Motul chain clean and chain lube from Kahuna. Tomorrow's going to be fun lol.

It does say "Your motorcycle does not need oil additives. Use the recommended oil." And not to use oils with graphite or molybdenum additives. They may adversely affect clutch operation. So I guess its motorcycle specific oil I have to use? Motul 5100 I see is 10W40, which I suppose is better...

Just curious, before I go ahead and put in the wrong engine oil when I do it... My manual states the following: API classification: SG or higher except oils labeled as energy conserving on the circular API service label viscosity: SAE 10W-30 JSAO T 903 standard: MA The chart also lists an...

these guys are ninjas, you have to catch them at Timmies on HWY 10 and eglinton.

God damn sweet looking CBR125, mine looks alot more worn out :(

Same!!! But only available on weekends.

Re: New rider need advice plz I haven't been able to get on the 401 yet, but my experience at least on the sideroads differs. It is the older version of the CBR125, plus I am not fat! I might have a one pack but its not bulging out yet (at least). Just watched a video of the older CBR125 do...

Re: New rider need advice plz I have a truly hard time believing that the CBR125 can hold 130 at all. I can barely get it to hit 100+ on fifth gear, sixth gear is nigh unusuable unless your on a flat road or downhill. It slows down on uphills on sixth gear for me.

Same, I brought my passport too but they just looked at license.

Well I'm in Mississauga, so if there is any sort of newbie friendly run, I would like to try it out, CBR125 powah!!!!!

Ok it turns out my dad has the 1/2 torque wrench from Princess Auto. It *looks* cheaper than the 3/8 Mastercraft one but I'm going to try it out. Now my question is, I bought the set of tools for 3/8 and 1/4. Can I just buy an 1/2 to 3/8 adapter so I can use my existing sockets whatever you...
