Was that the one that was on FB for $4k last week?

I'm sure there are freight forwarding businesses in the UK that could receive and forward the package to you... but I have no idea if they would be expensive or not. CBI is cheap because you pick it up from their warehouse in Niagara Falls NY. Shippsy is cheap because they receive it at their...

Jobs involving fluids are often easier with a vise. Manufacturers design their bikes for stuff involving fluid to be done with the bike level. A chock will lift the front end up, vice won't. Vice makes it easier for complete draining (oil) / easy filling (brake fluid) / level checking...

Just use a mailbox in the US that you can either pick it up yourself when you're out for a ride, like CBIUSA.com, or one that forwards it to Canada for you to pick up like shippsy.com A lot of my sponsors won't ship to Canada, because I guess I'm worth working with, but not worth enough to pay...

Good to know!

Ok, so long story short, those removable pads inside a full face helmet, good motorcycle manufacturers make them in a handful of different thicknesses, and you can order different sizes based on need. As an example I had an ex with a tiny head... now, most manufacturers would think, they have a...

I dunno... It seems like two non-issues. Long rides = wear ear plugs so you can still hear in your grey years, tinitis sucks, ask my friends who have it, but ask them LOUDLY Cheeks too tight = just buy a different inner pads for your helmet I sold helmets for a couple years when I worked at...

Even my AGV K6 which at the time I think was around $650, still couldn't touch the 10 year old Arai I had before it... but I wasn't going to get the Arai in the look that I wanted in time for my trip in 2023, and I wasn't going to pay Arai money and not get the color combo that I wanted... I've...

Yes to which one? lol On a test ride, or while being worked on in the shop? I got my teeth pullers and I'm doing all I can but the roots run deep with this one boys!

Yes, here's a template to help you: Bike was crashed at (business name): Bike was crashed by (employee name): You can pretty much tell us the whole story in like, 2 words lol

Woah woah woah, hey now, back up. Just going to gloss over that and not tell us what happened?! That's like saying "I have a secret but I can't tell you." Don't tell us you have a secret, and don't tell us a shop dropped (crashed?) your bike badly enough that you don't want to ride it again, if...

Speaking of Canadians and Canadian YouTube channels. My favorite comment I ever got on YouTube is kinda relevant: Sir, I was not even aware of your existence lol

Pretty sure my riding training class said "Fast in, EMERGENCY BRAKE, fast out" Yeah, that was it lol

Yeah but their audience isn't Canadian because we're so tiny and no one rides here :( For perspective, this is where all of my motorcycle channel's views came from in the last 365 days: USA - 40% UK - 8.8% CAN - 6.1% AUS - 4.5% PHI - 3.2% I'm sure at the scale that they are at compared to my...

How ya gonna go fast out of a corner if you don't carry 'nuff speed goin' into it?

You're a lot more dedicated than me. I only know what the trip cost me this year because an ex asked me so I did some rough math lol. As for what roads, ouuff, this trip took me through 11 of Italy's 20 regions (like provinces here) of Italy. I've now been through 15 of 20. I started writing...

France and Italy are neighbours who, to your point about neighbours complaining about each other, don't hold each other in the highest regard... But if these two neighbouring countries can put aside their differences and find one thing they both can agree on, well... it speaks volumes about...

Sounds like Northern Italians abroad lol. I can guess exactly what region they're from.

Agreed, as long as you stay away from the tourist city's city centers. I did my entire 25 day trip, hotels, airfare, food, shopping, and even one breakdown on the highway included, for the same as what 25 days of JUST hotels here would have cost. This year because I was riding across the...

I can chime in on this. You know how the American tourist stereotype is so bad, that when the average Canadian goes on vacation down south, we'll make sure to tell people that we're Canadian so that they don't think we're from the US? Europe's version of the American idiot, are the British...
