Just a reminder for some just going the Saturday that in previous years you have had to pay for both the Saturday and Sunday on the way in, then when you leave Saturday night they give you the Sunday fee back. Stops 100s from saying they are just there for Saturday then staying overnight for...
First 100 kms might be boring but he'd to Peterborough and take the 115/7 Peterborough bypass. When you get to the intersection of Landsdowne go straight through and continue on Television Rd. Just past the Petro Canada go right on 4 and stay left to stay on 4 (don't follow onto division) Not...
Was wondering if anyone here has ever bought a USED motorcycle at one of the winter bike shows, and which show is the best for those kind of purchases. I'm going to assume that a test ride is impossible? Is it too risky, or does the possible savings offset that risk? Would I be buying a bike...
This is me to a T. Every day of the trip I tell myself I am going to start looking for a camp site at 6:30 pm or so. Then I see a couple but tell myself "well there seems to be plenty around and I'm not tired so I'll keep going and another will turn up shortly" Almost without fail I don't see...
**** is right. hopefully both are ok. Being nailed head on by another bike isn't something most of us think about, although on popular roads with plenty of curves I've seen riders in a pack often run wide.
+ what Wudzrydr said. I ended up with the Forma Adventure boot. I don't do any hard core off road, mostly fire roads and gravel and some two track but these are waterproof, sturdy, and all-day comfortable for riding and then for walking around in if I feel like stopping and exploring a bit...
I don't commute on mine so I'm sort of foolish in that I dont really track mileage that much. But just my opinion based on the amount of fuel stops is that my SV1000S is a bit of a pig on gas and my DR650 is a miser. Doesnt seem to matter how much I thrash either, I can count on filling up the...
Re: Crashed & Bit Through My Lip - Helmet Advice Please?
You dont mention what kind of bike you ride and that would help narrow down your choice. I have a dual sport motorcycle and have a dual sport helment with the shield. Yes, there is a bigger chin space, but that means much more wind gets...
I'm with Mac on this one...as much as I'd like to think i'd be ready to smack him upside the head the second he got out of the vehicle and it would be an awesome story provided it turned out in my favour, the smart thing to do was let him vent. Any training in Crisis Management tells you to do...
Our insurance system seems to be against having more than 1 bike even if only 1 rider in the household with a motorcycle license. Having said that, if you can afford it why not. I have a dual-sport and an SV1000S. Seriously have been considering selling my SV because of knee problems [and my...
Saw this post and got a laugh out of it. Has this happened to anyone here yet?
Hey Crackhead
Yes, you. You sick ****er. On Wednesday morning I emerged from my girlfriend's building by U.N. Plaza to find that you had sawed the tops off both the sparkplugs on my motorcycle. At the...
Whatever you do, NEVER buy from an online store that uses UPS. They have hidden extra costs that they expect you to cough up on delivery. Stick with USPS only!
have you tried Revzilla? Also, Canada's Motorcycle.com some of their prices very competitive
Time for a new helmet and I've always used either Joe Rocket or AGV. I'm a size S and have been satisfied with both and have worn for 12 hr days. Both were around the 200 dollar range so I guess could be called a mid range helmet. I've never had what could be called a premium helmet but I see...
