    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    I`ve kept a bike from 2 years to 35+ years. Most are in the 5 to 10 year range, 19 motorcycles so far. I`m closing in on 70 years old and have lately been looking at the `26 H-D Pan Am. Why not?

    Prostate cancer update....

    Remember to follow the instructions, no need to put the stick up your hoop, not that there`s anything wrong with that .;)

    And he`s out under a different name, living among us. The gator pond should have been the answer.

    Prostate cancer update....

    Correct about the olde tyme farmers, they were hard people, I had a number in my family. I`ve had a number of scopes, I`d take that over poop on a stick if you can arrange it. Somehow I figured you are around my age,68, wouldn`t your grandfather be family history enough to qualify? The scope...

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    Don`t recall who said it, but it went like this..."Racing motorcycles makes heroin addiction look like a vague wish for something salty". 🏍️ 🏍️ 🏍️ 🏍️

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    I saw that movie on a double bill, with "Chrome and Hot Leather" at the 400 drive in. Funny that I never wanted to jump over buses or follow my inner outlaw on a hardtail Panhead chopper. :p

    So many years of memories, one I`m fond of. Summer of `71, I`m 14..been riding an array of dirt bikes for nearly 4 years. My cousin says I should ride his beautiful `70 CB750 around the Bramalea City Center parking lot. Big empty lot on a Sunday when things once were closed. "Uhh..by myself"...

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    For anyone down on the dealership experience I`ll say give Lindsay Cycle and HB Cycle a go. Solid customer treatment and service is what I`ve found. They cover Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Suzuki, KTM, Can-Am and Polaris. No affiliation, just a customer.

    Is It Time to Leave the Sport? Honestly… I’m Starting to Wonder.

    My problem is with dangerously stupid drivers and zero accountability for maiming or killing motorcyclists, while they F about with some electronic gadget. David Booth wrote a piece in Mojo about riding in Italy, where drivers go fast but with a fair skill level....because at some point they`ve...

    Has the city lost it's mind...

    Willowdale used to have a good sized Jewish population, perhaps the same now. It looks like another big FU to the Jews from Chow, that`s hardly surprising with what she`s allowed with the pro- terrorism marches.

    Has the city lost it's mind...

    I guess it slipped the mind of Oblivious Cow that those guys are big in funding terrorism. Probably thinking of more bike lanes. Toronto is equally stupid with NYC or San Francisco, enjoy the express elevator to the bottom Torontonians.

    Impaired Driving Penalty Changes

    Seems experts say alcoholism is a disease and a disorder.. a mental health issue. I`ve seen a lifetime of people with it, family and friends and so many others. I see it as you made a CHOICE to drink, you`re responsible if you kill someone. Just as Muzzo made a choice to drive and kill 4 people...

    Thinking of trading my V-Strom 650XT for the new Himalayan 450 – need your thoughts!

    This is the bike discussion so I`ll keep the cross contamination brief. No way in Hell am I sending a dime, never mind 20 Grand or whatever the ask is to Communist China for their motorcycles. It`s difficult enough to avoid their garbage product everywhere. Their relentless meddling continues in...

    Kawasaki Is About to Ruin 2-Strokes Forever

    What brand of oil and premix ratio and gasoline of choice are you using on these new-fangled strokers?

    Kawasaki Is About to Ruin 2-Strokes Forever

    I had no problem starting the RZ500 using my hand on the kick start lever. Wouldn`t try that on a CR500 though.

    Kawasaki Is About to Ruin 2-Strokes Forever

    I was lucky enough to experience the 2 stroke era and their glory days, beginning with a Yamaha Twin Jet 100 in `68. It`ll never happen but consider what could have been had the Yamaha GL750 and the Kawi square four 750 of the early `70`s been allowed to develop beyond the show circuit. With...
