    something new?

    do you want a list of atrocities sanctioned by india / japan / many european countries that make bikes too?? or does it only matter when its in the current news? and its hilarious that people get mad about specific things made in china and yet have no problem rocking iphones and literally every...

    New BSA Gold Star

    yah i believe thats what the royal enfield 650s have too. single is an interesting choice. if that means its like 400lbs, then sign me up. the RE650 is a twin but i still think the bike feels way heavy for what it is. EDIT: wow apparently it has 213lb kerb weight? what a joke. NOPE.

    Handlebar-mounted 12V/5A Socket + 5V/2.1A USB on clearance for $3 at Canadian Tire Etobicoke (Albion/Kipling)

    i know a direct connection to the battery means there will be some draw, but i've installed usb chargers like this on several of my bikes for literal years and have never come back to a dead battery.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    fitted some scorpion pipes a few weeks ago. not going for volume but more for weight savings and smaller physical form factor. the stock exhausts are massive and heavy. then took off the front mudguard and mounting piece and spraypainted them black. they're normally this greyish colour with a...

    Flying Squirrel aka OTOMOTO (update)

    yah that was my plan after finding out the cost of the OEM rims. i got a quote from brightside customs who say its about $260 to powder coat the rims which is fine. the issue is these rims have spokes and they recommend removing them first. im not super familar with whats involved with that...

    Flying Squirrel aka OTOMOTO (update)

    yah thats the only place i saw the lift handle and its the one where they want like 40 euro for shipping. maybe i'll email them and see if i can get a better rate.

    Flying Squirrel aka OTOMOTO (update)

    ahh yep im familar with both of those. no lift handle. its weird. i also got dealer prices for the OEM black rims and they were much more expensive than i thought (1132$ for front and 950$ for rear!). holy ****. still waiting for royal enfield to release official alloys.

    Flying Squirrel aka OTOMOTO (update)

    curious what parts were you looking for? im having a hell of a time sourcing the lift handle on the left side of the interceptor. i want to install the center stand on my gt650 and want the lift handle as well. literally doesnt exist on ebay. one shop in the UK seems to have it but they want 40...

    fuel stabilizer

    i used to use seafoam in my old carborated bike with regular gas (which according to fortnine, is a bad idea lol). but with my ducati i always fill with shell v-power (ethanol free) when i can, and especially during winter storage. i dont use stabilizer in it at all. on my royal enfield 650, it...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    added a temporary mod to the back of my bike. yesterday i went riding around all day like this and people were loving it. although one guy yelled at me 'hey what are you doing riding around with my wife?' in which i replied 'I'M BONING HER!'

    Flying Squirrel aka OTOMOTO (update)

    I stopped by there the other day for help in getting my stock exhausts off (I just could not get the right side exhaust to disconnect from the header joint) and they promptly helped me out. They used to have a different system where you booked a consult online and chose a time for them to call...

    What do you think is a good price for a 2010 Ducati Monster 696 ABS?

    totally didnt take consideration of the age of the bike. i was thinking of my 2016 ducati which has exactly almost 17,000km on it too.

    What do you think is a good price for a 2010 Ducati Monster 696 ABS?

    for a 2010 monster that seems like the normal price for it. not sure why they would have already done desmo and changed the belt at 17k though. seems odd. i've had an air cooled ducati for a few years, and the maintenance cost and crazy heat from the engine in city riding conditions prompted...

    recommended motorcycle dolly for garage?

    Ok so I ended up picking this up for $50. The owner used this for a Harley street glide which is twice the weight of my bikes so I figure it should be fine. Brought it home and was annoyed that my royal enfield 650 wouldn’t fit on it. The kickstand is too close to the rear wheel to get it onto...
