    New Rider from Etobicoke

    If current economic trends continue, I imagine the used bike market is going to continue to be atypical for a while. I doubt any historic trends is going to apply except maybe 2007-2009.

    Load-N-Go Motorcycle Loading Lift - Anyone have this?

    Wheel Chocks: I went with Pitbull Trailer Restraints. Super easy to handle by yourself, and it is 'removable' in case you need your bed to be absolutely flat. You can arrange it so the harness goes forward from your rear tire, the mount sitting underneath the pivot and the mounting point would...

    New ducati single

    The electronics suck on the 690. My kingdom for a gas gauge or an auto resetting trip meter (yes yes, back in your day....). Turning off the TC and ABS every time you start it is such a process. You get blown around like a sail on the highway. The pegs are too low and the seat is too high to...

    New ducati single

    I don't have dyno charts for mine, but I have a '23 690 SMCR with Rottweiler intake, Tekmo Full Ti exhaust with power bomb, Powercommander with Rottweiler's Fuel and Ignition advance map. Rottweiler claims its 75hp at the wheel, +10hp over stock. I only bolted the mods a few hundred km after...

    Bike storage - side hustle?

    Even if you remove the legal aspects of it, just thinking of the headache if something were to happen. For example: Bike falls off the kickstand cause tire goes flat over winter. Knocks over one of your other customer's shiny red Italian bike and creates lots of smaller shiny red bits. Who...

    Last Youtube Video of MaxWrist at Deals Gap

    The left hand turn before has a section of pavement on the right tire track that has caved in causing a change in camber on entry. You have to either stay close to the yellow line, compromising entry, or be light in your seat and trust your suspension. I'm looking forward to the repaving next...

    Didn't want someone to target fixate themselves into my bike or if they needed to use the pull off. We were up ontop of the hill where someone built a bench in memorial to someone out of sight.

    There's a fully paved pull off every 30 meters on the gap without having to cross the center line. Leave your pride at home, ride your own ride, share the road, use the pull offs and you will be fine. The only prize at the end is an American coronary incident on a bun called a Pig Pen. It's...

    Looks like the same corner as your buddy "i'm going to go first!" got asked to pay the local track fee.

    Second real lefthander before mile marker 8. Cold tires from too much talking at the overlook and trying to show off for the camera. Oh the gap. Best roads in Ontario. Can't wait till the re-paving next year. The poor state of the road since COVID definitely doesn't help.

    Aprilia RS 457

    There was a video recently of him enjoying the mid season break on a super Moto and mini moto with a few other MotoGP riders. Plus, don't knock on small bike track riders. It's fun in it's own way and it's much more unforgiving to mistakes with regards to lap time.

    Quick Shifter - Thoughts?

    Yeah, if $600 is too much for the feature for the others, then $600 is too much for the feature to them. Spirited riding with a smaller displacement engine and/or shorter gearing, then autoblip is a huge qualify of life improvement. If your corner entry speed and your mean average speed are...

    Ducati vs Ktm part prices

    I love KTMs, have two. Parts pricing isn't the issue, though it is European thus more than Japanese. Parts availability is attrocious. You can be waiting months on OEM parts.

    ADV helmet choices

    As you had described in your other thread, you plan to keep it on pavement so one of the main ADV features (google compatibility) is nullified. One of the biggest challenges with ADV helmets is the peak buffetting due to the way your windscreen is set up. The windscreen would push air in a way...
