A 1950 series C Vincent Comet in 1964. Many bikes since but I'm slowing down nowadays. I sold my Triumph Rocket III a couple of years ago and replaced it with a T120 Bonneville 1200. Also have few old Brit bikes to keep me busy. present projects are building a '68 Norton Atlas cafe racer and a...

Somewhere I have a letter from the then minister of transport ( I believe it was James Snow) that the part of the law referred to as ghost driving where the driver operates the car from the passenger seat does not apply to motorcycles. In fact I can remember when the riders handbook recommended...

My Commando (air cooled) doesn't like traffic and heat either!!

I contacted NFP because my insurance on two bikes has gone up an obscene amount. I ended up getting them insured for less than half what I was paying with Echelon. I dealt with Lauralee Oullet and found the service excellent.

Only the use of electronic devices is considered distracted driving. Eating, putting on makeup etc. is not covered by the distracted driving law. Driving without due care and attention, careless driving and dangerous driving still apply to these offences and carry stiff penalties too. E.G...

I've crossed numerous times on a bike. Be polite and answer their questions. Don't chat or say any more than is necessary. They sometimes ask strange questions such as "what is your citizenship?" You want to say,"You're holding my Canadian passport, dumbass" but I simply reply Canadian. I've...

Painter's Edge. Very high quality and he loves doing bikes. Woodbine just north of Stoufville rd. This is a tank he did for me.

You might want to check your math on the sprocket change. I'd suggest -1 on the front and +2 on the rear.

Did you ever get ahold of Ken Rosevear? I know he has rebuilt several Square Fours.
