    Check out our 3D Scanner!

    Not sure if any of you are interested in 3D printing or scanning, but I just launched an indiegogo project with my friend Drew (monster 620) 48 hours ago. SO I'M GOING TO DO A SHAMELESS PLUG. I dream of one day just downloading and printing new fairings on a whim so I'm hoping one day my geek...

    January riders??.....

    Rode to work today after 10mins of dithering about worrying about salt. No regrets. Felt great and was totally warm without needing the heated gear. Funny how 2 degrees in November feels so much colder than 2 degrees in January. Sent from my GT-I9100M using Tapatalk

    Puma Testastretta II Boots

    I have them and they now sit in the closet after 1 week of use. I would say if you're a girl go for it. if you're a guy they're GARBAGE. after 1 week the rubber began falling off the sole so it was just metal. everywhere I walk it's a noticable clak clak clak clak like high heels. guys turn...

    December riders - careful out there...

    Oh its not that bad with an ss. Or maybe the sport touring isnt anything like an ss. I dunno. Its deffinetly not like riding the 500 in winter but Its just a matter of not pushing it and not giving into any crazy drivers that rev around you. I just ride it nice and pokey and i have zero slips...

    Look outside...WOULD YOU RIDE TODAY??

    I dont get the salt arguement in general. Moat people avoiding riding due to salt will probably have their bike stolen anyways. Salt that @#%& up yo! Perhaps a few rust spots will work as a theft deturant :rolleyes: Sent from my GT-I9100M using Tapatalk

    Thoughts on my first commutes

    Better safe than sorry dude. Itll just make the spring time that more enjoyable. I put mine away last year after 2 cars crashed on black ice right next to me. Its not worth your health. Not sure sbout this year but theres nothing wrong with packing it in. Sent from my GT-I9100M using Tapatalk

    Look outside...WOULD YOU RIDE TODAY??

    I rode. But just becuase im a show off according to paul. Lol. Was perfectly warm and didnt have to deal with people pushing me on the ttc. Ill take lowered traction and going slighlty slower over the ttc any day. If i had a car it woild be a different situation but the bike does 80% of what i...

    HUD (Heads Up Display) on your visor

    I tried the recon android goggle ones at MEC. eveyr inch of my nerdy side wants one.. but in reality upon trying them it was clear it's a bad idea. it takes less effort to look at the dash then the HUD. the problem is the HUD is very close to your eye so when you look down there's an adjustment...

    Hard Cases...interchangeability?

    on a side note the e21's are great for camping. once you unload your gear you can pile ice into them and use one as a cooler. if you're campground camping of course. I'm sad I can't do that with the v35's.

    Justifying motorcycling

    the kayak is a folbot, so it's not as amusing as you think. check www.folbot.com it fits into a backpack. it's like a tent in that you assemble the metal frame and then stretch the skin over it. here's a thread I posted on fz6forum with photos...

    Brine is down

    Half the people that are worried about resale value and salt will probably have their bike stolen from their condo within a year anyways so you're just doing the theives a favor by keeping it pretty.

    Transition Lens Motorcycle Visor?

    I have the bell transition. Love it. I'm shocked more companies don't offer it. Its so convenient not to have to bring two visors or worry about glasses. Its almost always just the right tint level. Sent from my commodore 64 via tapatalk

    suggestions for 600-1000cc sport tourer?

    Wouldn't suggest the fz6 if the commuting your friend does is downtown in heavy traffic. The bike isn't a huge fan of stop and go. You have to feather the clutch a fair bit as it wants to be higher in the rpm which you get used to but its still annoying compared to bikes that are more twist and...

    does anybody ride in winter?

    Rode all December last season on the ninja but I stopped doing it everyday after 2 cagers crashed next to me. Even if you're careful around black ice and feel YOU have control it doesn't mean everyone else does. Watch how people drive in Toronto. They can barely manage to do it in perfect...
