    Stuck Oil Filters

    Yes, I have a nice heavy duty sandcast aluminum ofw that fits the OEM filters perfectly - it's at least 25 years old and works like a charm.

    Stuck Oil Filters

    Ran into that once on my BMW K75. The oil filter is up inside the sump, accessed by removing a little cover. Never had a problem using OEM BMW filters, but the first time I cheaped-out and used an aftermarket ( Fram ) filter, it became the nightmare from hell. On top of that, I had ridden the...

    An early start...

    https://www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/news-story/8351041-thorold-senior-dies-in-motorcycle-crash/ RIP old fella. Still lots of sand on the roads in rural areas. Early starters beware.

    Just got my first bike

    I'm always interested in a recommended ride, so I was trying to check this out on a map. I'm not from the area, so I don't know the roads around there, but did you mean take Davis Drive "east" to Lake Ridge?

    Who's At Fault?

    Best case scenario you're 50% at fault. Your evidence shows it was a clear day and the curb was perfectly visible, but you backed up without looking behind you - you gotta own that much.

    SMP Sep 30th

    Very cool video. I'm gonna say that lean angle indicator is out of calibration though. I don't think I saw it go over 25 degrees, but watching the horizon tells a whole different story�� Nice riding.

    Fatal in Welland

    http://www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/2017/07/08/fatal-crash-on-highway-406 I'd call it murder. So infuriating. RIP rider.

    Welland Rider Killed

    Just down the road from my house - I had ridden through there about a half hour before it happened, and passed by about a half hour later. It was such a gorgeous day to be out riding. In more ways than one, the last ride of the season. So tragic and senseless. RIP

    Guy Kills His Girlfriend In High-Speed Motorcycle Crash (Video)

    As already stated, being right isn't much good if you're dead. If you're a biker and you're not riding defensively, it's going to catch up with you.

    '15 1200GSA won't start

    LOL - that's what I was thinking! Had it happen before on a K75 - there was so much urine and poop in there it destroyed the air flow sensor.

    Anyone had a trip to Canadian Rockies?

    Back in the early '90's rode out there from St. Catharines, ON with a buddy - me on my BMW K75C and he on his Suzuki Gs1000. Camped the whole way there and back, including some great overflow campsites, hot springs, and glacier tours in the Rockies. There and back in 11 days. Can you say monkey...

    Possibly stolen bike?

    Any concerns about the structural integrity of the head tube after it being cut and welded? I would have.
