    Where to get cheap synthetic oil in the GTA?

    Maybe a stupid question, but why do you need to stick with the Motul? Shouldn't be any issues switching brands or grades. Just buy something cheaper (cough...Rotella...cough).

    Would a hands-free helmet holder be useful?

    So, why not just get a decent cable lock and put it through the chin bar and around something solid on the bike (I use my alum. hand guard). Much easier than carrying it in any manner and if someone wants to take it they better have a pair of 2ft bolt cutters or a grinding wheel. Cable goes in...

    Sena 20s and earbuds question

    Have you tried using the speakers while wearing earplugs? I use the same type of speakers, but plugged into my phone rather than a comms device like the Sena. I also wear foam earplugs. I can hear most things very well through the plugs. I did buy a mini-amp to boost the volume a bit, mostly...

    Long time lurker...

    Greetings all, I've been enjoying the forum for a while now and figured that I should probably step out of the shadows and say hi. So, uh, hi! As you might be able to tell from my name I'm on a KLR650 and have been for the last 4 years, 3 of which have been in Whitby. Anyway, I don't really...
