    How do you use your riding modes?

    Tuning was great! Mode 1 and 2 were super twitchy at first, and I told Speedlab that the throttle response on Mode 3 was perfect. They then mimicked that for mode 1 and 2, but I can feel the torque difference and how much the bike pulls in all 4 modes. The throttle response is good for 1 and...

    How do you use your riding modes?

    My bike has 4 riding modes, with mode 1 being sporty and I rode in this mode most of the time. Having a new exhaust and tune, now riding mode 3 feels like how mode 1 felt before the tune. Mode 4 is rain mode and is still super slow responsive. I hardly use modes 1 and 2 now because they are...

    Isn't this a long screw?

    I've never seen a screw this long stuck in a tire! I remember hearing a pop sound on the highway but didn't think anything of it, traffic was moving slow, around 40km/h but I'm impressed!

    ECU Flash - Local w/Dyno or Send To USA

    I got my tune yesterday from Speedlab and wow! Justin, Matt and Joel were amazing! Took about 1.5 hours, gained 5hp, and my throttle response is awesome now! Bike just wants to pull through the entire rev range. I can't even ride on Mode 1 (Sport) anymore because it's just way too fast, so...

    Young & New Rider Insurance

    You're 17 so I'll give you some advice on something you said as I'm more than double your age. You think you won't buy a new bike or want to go through the buying/selling process, but you will buy a new bike, you will sell your bike you thought you were never going to get rid of, you will...

    Young & New Rider Insurance

    First year for new riders is the most dangerous so that's why insurance is high for the Ninja 600 (ZX-6R), which is a high risk bike for new riders/insurance. The CBR650R is not in the same class as the Ninja 600, the similar Honda bike would the CBR600RR. You're comparing the Ninja which is...

    My trip across 403, 401, 427, Gardiner and Queen's.

    I ride these all the time coming back from Toronto to Mississauga. They are fun, but also scary if you're not prepared. The simplest way to navigate the bumps is to get on your feet and off the seat a little bit, let your legs absorb the bump and let the bike go over them with a relaxed grip...

    Air Filters (Sprint or DNA or OEM) w/Tune

    End of May I'm installing a full exhaust with a tune. While I'm at it, should I even bother replacing the filter? DNA makes a drop in, much larger surface area than OEM. Sprint makes one that's similar surface area to OEM but different filter element. I'm not trying to get any performance...

    Second bike as a beater/practice.

    This is amazing, I had no idea something like this existed! Much better than spending a couple thousand on a bike!

    Second bike as a beater/practice.

    I want to improve on my motorcycle control, but I don't want to practice on my new and shiny Tracer. What's a good/cheap bike that I could possible get for a couple thousand that I could practice on and not worry about dropping it? Is getting a second bike for practice even a thing? I...
