Re: First Bike Purchase - Street or Dual Sport - Thoughts + Considerations Apprecia I wanted a 1975 Honda CB400F as my first motorcycle. But I ended up buying an NOS 1974 Kawasaki G4TRD 100 with a dual range transmission like this one. I lived in Courtice and worked in Ajax. I would leave...

Quinte News report Looks like the dreaded, “left turn take out” move. http://www.quintenews.com/2013/07/27-year-old-dead-after-motorbikevan-collide/48392/ Thoughts and prays go out to family and friends.

No, all vehicles must be covered under separate motor vehicle policies and said policy must include theft coverage to make a claim. So if you’re thinking about parking your bike for a long time cancelling your insurance, DON”T! Drop the PL & PD but keep the fire and theft coverage on it...

My wife Linda's first motorcycle was a 2000 Honda Rebel 250. Rebels have a stylized hawk image on the side covers so she named the bike Isabeau after Michelle Pfeiffer’s character from the movie Ladyhawk. http://web.archive.org/web/20050313023008/http://www2.reach.net/seven/m600/RebRF1.jpg Her...

To do the Rossi “Leg Wave” correctly you must use the leg that is on the inside of the corner not the out side. Also, you need to “dangle it” more, not hold it out straight. ;) Or were you trying to imitate Carl Fogarty’s “Bollox to the lot of ya!”

Ric, you know me. I’ve been transporting bikes to shows, tracks and off road events since the mid 70’s. I’ve had full size vans, big and small pick-ups, cars and SUV’s. Some worked better then others but I always found a way to use what ever I had. Best all around set up was my old Chevy van...

Re: BY By Tommy boy Ford kicked out!! Ah Gaeezzuss H Christ, where do you guys think tabloid types like the Gawker get their tips from in the first place? News worthy, gawd dang I wonder if media like the Star even know what that is. The media is playing smoke and mirror games with you and...

What it should be all about is; enjoying the ride. Remember the old saying, “It’s not what you ride but THAT you ride!” Unfortunately any discussion of riding will stir up debate on stereotypical behaviour whether fact or fiction. However, in this case I think it’s fitting to mention a couple...

This is not news, the OPP have been using this tactic for decades. I was stopped between Cobourg and Port Hope over a dozen years ago by a LEO who was parked right up against the center wall. What ****** me off was that I was in the slow lane and had just been passed like I was sitting still by...

Yes, I’m sure of the way I ride my Ducati 900 SS and how different it is to my MV Agusta 675 F3. I have friends who I’ve let ride my Ducati and they think it’s neat but it just isn’t for them and that’s OK. How many fours have anything under 2000? My 900 actual doesn’t like to run under 2500 but...

In reference to motor vehicles, power is power. It is a standard unit of measurement for the delivery of force used to propel said vehicle. What you feel is the torque, that twisting motion that makes the wheels go around. Some bikes, like a long stroke, air cooled, L twin Ducati makes lots of...

Speaking of high end die casts and having specific models made, my brother commissioned a company in south Oshawa, (Durham Classics) to do a replica of our father’s 1934 La Salle that he now owns. This photo was taken when the car was on display at the 1964 New York Auto Show. This is the...

I have no personal knowledge of anyone in the Quinte area but if you’re still looking I can list off the ones out of the Yellow pages. Just got our new phone books today. ;)

Holy crap Jamie, I’m in that Tim Horton's a couple or three times a month as an old racing / gaming buddy of mine lives just a couple of minutes away on the 8th line. However, I’ve never been into the gas bar. Who would’ve thought, eh?

There are at least six dealers in southern Ontario. Where do you live?

Insurance adjusters have always had the responsibility of identifying fraudulent claims. Problem is, many are too lazy to do their jobs properly. Case in point, I had an adjuster who threatened me with criminal charges because he believed I was making a fraudulent claim. He was willing to pay...

I can’t comment on dead vs. live animals but I can tell you that if you crash while swerving to avoid hitting something or someone it’s going to be on you. However, if you strike an object that you can trace back and prove where it came from (like a section of scaffolding falling off a specific...
