Hey Folks, I haven't seen a thread on this yet. Is anyone aware of upcoming events? Yamaha has some up at Yamaha Motorcycle Power Tour | Yamaha Motor Canada

Hey Folks, I'm looking for some bike advice for what to buy next. I know a lot of what make the bike "the right bike" is personal, but I'd like to crowdsource some info anyways. Here are the bikes I'm deciding between: Yamaha FZ-09/MT-09 Yamaha FZ-10/MT-10 KTM Super Duke R 1290 Ducati Monster...

Looks like this one is coming up in about a week. Anyone going? I missed the other shows earlier, so I was hoping this one might have some bike/gear deals, and not just a bunch of really "cool" biker vests/chains/shirts to buy. The site doesn't have info on what dealers are going or...

Hey All, I'm looking to pick up some sort of naked/supernaked bike such as an S1000R, FZ-09, FZ-10, Monster 1200, Hypermotard, Super Duke R 1290, or Tuono. I'm also considering getting an R1 again (2012+). If you're thinking of selling, let me know what you've got! I'm a reasonable buyer and...

Hi All, I am thinking of switching to riding an FZ09 or FZ10, and I keep getting quotes for them that are pretty much equal (or very close) to what I'm paying for my CBR1000RR. I've checked with Dalton Timmis, who I've dealt with in the past. Rates are as follows: 2016 Yamaha R6 (599cc...

Hey Folks, I recently moved back from Alberta where I was riding an R1 for $90/month to a bit of a cluster for sport bike insurance. State Farm looks like they went tits up for bike insurance. I've seen some posts on here for people getting superbikes for a non-soul crushing rate, but they...

Hey folks, I've had an HJC RPHA-10 helmet for a while now, and I thought I'd share my thoughts on whether the helmet is any good. The helmet is intended to be HJC's "Racing" helmet, meant to compete with the big boys like the Shoei X-12 and Arai Corsair-V, but for about half the cost. Size/Fit...

Hey folks, I'm looking for a few different parts for my R6 - any parts from an 03-05 will work (or 06+ R6s). Mostly looking for: -Fairing Stay (some people refer to it as a bird cage) -Front/Upper Fairings -Aftermarket Clutch/Brake levers PM Me if you have something that will work. I can pick...

Looks like BMW is pulling out of WSBK after this year. Some people are saying this is to move to some sort of MotoGP effort. http://motomatters.com/press_release/2013/07/24/bmw_press_release_bmw_to_end_factory_inv.html...

I have an 8 month old Shoei RF-1100 Blue Chroma, which is a size Medium. It also has a "Spectra Blue" visor on it (MSRP is ~$100). The blue visor is great for riding both at night and in the middle of the day. It also matches the blue on the helmet really well. There is nothing wrong with...

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-sport-bikes/kitchener-waterloo/2005-yamaha-yzf-r6/586596068 I have a blue 2005 Yamaha R6 for sale. The bike is in mostly good condition and I ride it on a daily basis. 52000kms (mostly highway, and it has been well taken care of) Michelin Pilot Power 2CT tires, have...

Hey all, I'm looking to buy a high-end race level helmet in a size Medium. I've got a Shoei RF1100 right now that fits pretty well, but the rear spoiler gets caught on my jacket/suit and it's bothering me. I don't have any strong brand preferences - AGV, Arai, Shoei, Bell, HJC, Shark...doesn't...

Hey all, I'm looking for 2 different items: I'm looking to pick up a mens 1 piece leather suit shortly - I'm 6'3 and 180lbs. I wear a 52 European Dainese jacket, and I think something in the 54 range would work for a suit (I'm hoping). Preferable Dainese or Alpinestars stuff. If you have...

Dainese Technical Sneaker Purchased at Riders Choice Price: ~$200 I picked up these shoes earlier this year, and I thought I'd share my experience with them. I haven't seen anyone else with them, so it may be of value to anyone considering riding shoes/boots. Style The look of the shoes is...

Hey All - I'm looking around for a new helmet. I have a Scorpion EXO-700 right now, and I'm finding that it hurts my jaw after about 90 minutes of riding. So, I'm looking to upgrade into something a bit higher end, and I'm having a hard time deciding what to get. I have tried on a few RF-1100s...

Hey peeps, I'm looking to scoop a new jacket or possibly a 1/2 piece suit, but I'm having a terrible time finding something that I think fits me well. Normally the jackets are too short, and don't even cover my belt (a lot sit above, which looks like the jacket shrunk in the drier). If I can...

Hey gents, I just purchased a bike with an RS-3 exhaust, but they no longer had the insert/silencer that went in it. I'll potentially be doing some highway riding with it, so a little less noise might save me some sanity (I've gotta hold onto the bit I've got). I've heard the silencer is the...

I'm looking for an 03-05 Suzuki SV650 to buy shortly. I'd prefer the S model, but I'll consider the naked versions as well. Very interested in a blue/silver or silver/silver bike, but I don't have my heart set on any particular combination. Bonus points will be received for an exhaust or a...
