    Ouch!!!

    I had an excellent experience at North York General 8 weeks ago. I shattered my collar bone into several pieces on a Tuesday night around 7pm and had surgery at 4pm the next day. I compete in multiple sports and explained to the emerg DR. that I wanted surgery, she referred me to an excellent...

    New GSXR600

    Many bikes also come from the factory with these marks as well. Does not necessarily mean it's been raced. Can't speak to whether Suzuki does this but I have had new Hondas and KTMs with torque marks.

    Chain came off during a turn...

    I would imagine rotating the shaft would make it clear if it was bent. There would be a wobble to it. As for cracks in the casing, if the cases are dirty clean them up with degreaser and inspect carefully by eye.

    How do you know?

    You need to see a copy of the ownership. If memory serves me right a green ownership issued to a road plated bike and a brown ownership to offroad plated bikes. There may be other ways to tell, I have just asked the seller what colour their ownership slip is in the past.

    Sidi Crossfire vs. Alpinestars Tech 3 vs. Salomon Quest

    Best boot missing from your your list are the Gaerne SG12 or if you want to be lighter on the pocket book the SG10's. I was in the market last winter for a new pair of boots and after several ankle and foot injuries from lower end MX boots (661 Flight Boot, and Alpinestars Tech 3's) I decided I...

    GSX-R to Supermoto

    Yes, I converted a 500 exc. Wheels, bigger brakes, sliders, and some other bits. working on setting the suspension up now as it is way too soft for the street in stock form. I would tell the owner immediately! They probably have no idea the damage they're doing to the differential.

    GSX-R to Supermoto

    Thanks! I just got started modding, the bike is so good it really doesn't need much. Doesn't mean I can help changing it though. Sorry to thread highjack

    GSX-R to Supermoto

    Congrats on the purchase! SM's are incredible fun. I had a cbr600rr and went totally offroad last summer. Began to miss being able to jump on a street bike for a quick romp, and really wanted a SM as a do it all bike. Picked up a new ride this spring and I can't wipe the silly grin off my face...

    Seat shaving? Vs lowering a bike?

    I have shaved several seats for offroad race bikes used in really gnarly races where the ability to get a foot down (or two) can mean the difference between staying on your bike and dumping it. Having tried a number of methods (cheese grader, hand saw, electric carving knife, and belt sander) I...

    Helmet Cams

    You mention on the "shell" of a helmet. Is that specific wording found in the HTA? The reason I ask is I have my gorpo mounted to mx helmet on the bottom of the removable sun visor. I would think that the sun visor is not considered the "shell" of the helmet. Anyone have any thoughts?

    pirelli rallysport

    If I was in the market for new dual sport tires I would be taking a serious look at the Motoz Tractionators. They have received good reviews from guys that need a DOT approved tire but ride mostly offroad. http://www.motoz.com.au/shop_content.asp?p=tyrerange

    Where do you guys mount your plates ????

    Anywhere other than the front number plate is bound to get you hassled if you run into the trail police. I was given the option to fix it or face a ticket when i had it on the back (green plate). Both the Ganny and SCF are crawling with trail enforcement this time of year. For me it's just not...

    04 KX250F clutch...wtf

    The new 2 stroke bikes are absolutely potent. If you're looking at trail riding I highly recommend the KTM XC line of bikes. I just picked up a leftover 2012 250XC in the fall and the bike has really impressed me. KTM also has there powervalve tech really down allowing you to change the...
