    "Mind ya damn b'ness."

    Old tires? Two months ago, I took a Suzuki Bandit for a test ride. Before I left the dealership, I realized the tires were, let's say, used up. After the ride, the salesman asked how it was? Good enough to make an offer, which I did, and bought the bike. I was told it would be a week, for a...

    Asphalt is not your friend today

    A tether cord / string comes in handy, so you don't ride away forgetting it. (They all have a pre made hole for that).

    Whats up with toronto motorcycle police?

    The OPP tested the Beemers and Yamaha FJR's, before ditching HD. Yamaha lent a dozen, new, '23 fjr's to the OPP for testing. I bought one of the "test" bikes. It had 16km on it. (not much of a test ride) They gave the yami a shot, but they'd already tested the bmw, and bmw won.
