I was thinking about heading up that way too. Got a couple nice routes for my GPS up in the Haliburton/Kawartha lakes area. Here are the main ones I was thinking of: http://www.bestbikingroads.com/motorcycle-roads/motorbike-rides-in-canada-/ontario-/eastern-loops--haliburton-_53d6400.html...

I just did the clutch freeplay slack adjustment this past weekend when I installed my new adjustable shorty levers that finally came in :), but I'll try adjusting the height to lower the lever a bit. Thanks!

I've been finding that I've been getting that embarrassing shift into neutral, rather than 2nd gear, a little bit too often lately. I just switched back from Rotella T6 to Honda GN4 oil about 1000km ago, so that could be a factor... or could possibly be that I'm not kicking up hard enough at...

Who: Me When: Sunday Aug 30, 2015 around 6PM Where: Curve at bottom of hill on Mineral Springs Rd in Hamilton. Google maps says around street #'s 1027 or 1028 What happened: Low sided while turning into the curve at the bottom of the slope that immediately followed a blind curve. Probably leaned...

So now that we're close to this coming into effect, and the increased media coverage, has there been any definitive clarification on whether this applies to street light crossings yet?

Yep, that nut's screws be loose

This time around I did. Had the lead position from the lights at Parliament, so I came around that bend a whole 5 seconds (est) before the rest of the pack, so I was clearly the winnaaaar! :cool:

Mine broke after installing an aftermarket air horn, and didn't factor in the shocks compression when checking for clearance. First heavy bump caused the back of the fender to clip onto the edge of the horn, breaking both in the process :(. Just looking to see if anyone was parting out their...

Yep, that looks a lot better, notwithstanding the ****** pavement. Always ride in the left lane until it forces the merge into a single lane at the end of the ramp. Yeah, that's pretty much what I figured. I definitely wasn't going super-fast, but since when has that ever stopped them...

Don't know if it's legit, but I saw a video recently of some guy fixing a dent in his car by heating it up with a blowdryer / heatgun, and then cooling it off by spraying compressed air on it (with the bottle held upside down), and the expansion -> contraction caused the dent to pop out on it's own.

One afternoon was heading to L&L as a meet spot to head out for a ride. I was coming along Lakeshore, and turning into the parking to Freshco. This was the first time I was going in that there were vehicles coming out of the lot taking up part of the lane, both a car and then a pickup, so it...

Yep, that's the exact spot. That really seems a lot less of a curve from the overhead angle.

I considered that as well, but as far as I could tell the car did not move at all from it's position. I had at least a good 3-5 seconds of visibility of it in my mirrors. I'm not 100% certain, but I don't think I recall any vehicles approaching from the other lanes. The lights literally just...

So yesterday evening I was going eastbound over the bridge where Adelaide merges into Eastern. I pulled ahead of all the cars at the light, so I picked up some speed going up the ramp and went full tilt into the curve. As I came around I noticed an unmarked car sitting on the left ahead of the...

As long as it works! You should see the mount I made for my $1200 projector in my apt ;). your mount reminded me a great deal of it... only thing is my projector isn't taking corners at 100km/h :lmao:

Man, I'm a DIY'er myself, but **** does that ever look ghetto/unsecure. Does that thing even tighten to grip your phone/GPS, or do you just slide it on in through the side?

I bought mine from RadioWorld up on Steeles. Was like $60 all in for the triple tree base, 3" stem, and X-clamp holder. Not exactly cheap (but at least no shipping charges since buying from a brick & mortar), but again, as LePhillou said, you get what you pay for and I have no regrets with my...

Looking to buy some of the following books (or possibly anything similar that might not be on the list) if anyone is willing to part with their copies: Mark Zimmerman - The Essential Guide to Motorcycle Maintenance David L. Hough - Proficient Motorcycling: The Ultimate Guide to Riding Well...

Doctor was useless. I made the mistake of saying it felt a little bit better than the first day, so he dismissed it as a non-issue. He was pretty confident it wasn't gout, though, as there was no signs of redness or swelling. Of course a day later the pain came back even worse. Went to my...

I know this'll fall into the "if someone else jumped off a bridge" territory, but what are everyone else's thoughts about when you are side by side with another vehicle, and they proceed once the ped passes the line into the oncoming lanes... which is pretty much everyone else on the road. I've...
