    What's your biggest fear?

    Now, just after a very recent (drive) collision with a deer, this scenario is on the top of my fear list when riding; given that I spend only 20% driving compared to ride, being lucky has a total different meaning for me.

    Stand Signed HIghway During Prohibited Times/Days

    it's up to you... how much your time worth 'saving' 40$ Bring your exact story to the judge and he will knock it down to 15 or 20$ (probably next yr trial) - you just didn't see the sign right. it takes ~30mins in the court but depends where you come from. i have my opinion though on the fine...

    Ninja 650R or VFR 800

    you are not comparing apple to apple here and probably you know that already. for the VFR -reliable, confy, heavier, great on hwy, long range, fast enough (almost like an SS, for sure beats the 650's) for the 650 - light, great on streets, better fuel milage, better suited for short rides (and...

    What did everyone buy at the show this weekend?

    Rob - FYI - for VFR800 you can use the Fram PH6607 filter, can find at Canadian Tire for 7$ - works great.

    What did everyone buy at the show this weekend?

    Tech Spec tank grips for me, 50$ from BlueStrake R guys. Last year changed all my riding gear so other than some good riding shoes (low boots)- which I didn't find - wasn't really looking to buy much. Good few hrs spent - the the pizza smell in the halls... oh boy! ... no wonder it worked like...

    Riding Mexico

    There is a HD/cruiser rental place , on the main Cancun-Playa-Tulum hwy , close to the intersection with the main road taking to Playa del Carmen's dtown - big signage, you can't miss it.

    Honda VFR 800 thoughts

    Probably will be one of the best money you've spent! that is a very good price. I have one, picked up the of the last '09 ones and very pleased so far. Comming from SS bikes. I found a dramatic improvement in engine performance, especially smoothness, after I put the Power Comander V, even with...

    What's the Most Comfortable Sportbike?

    from the 600cc category, I found the 08+ gsxr being the confiest you can get for someone over 6ft. Still, the F4i from Honda (02-03) by far better in that category for tall persons.

    Group riders - bikes with no CAT and the fumes behind

    thanks all for posting here... thoughtfull. Some notes ....When riding in 8+ group, usually it's good to keep a close formation, and that means you are 10-20ft away from the 2 bikes staggered in the front of you, at least one shooting the exhaust straight towards you. For shorther, or more...

    Group riders - bikes with no CAT and the fumes behind

    I'm not sure if it's just me, but found that when I'm in longer grup rides and have bikes with no CAT converter exhaust front of me, after an hour or so I am getting serious head ache from the fumes .... I'm not a sensible person for migrane kind of things (OK - drinks are exception ;)), but...

    January over priced bike show bike purchase

    Actually there are some great deals at the December show in downtown, there are fewer dealers compared to January show; those who bring oput bikes to sell price them accordingly - since donnow how many people go there to actually buy a bike, must be a GOOD price. Last year, there were 3...

    Forget Power Commanders! - Attention Rider's Choice

    I know one thing: though I am cheap on spending on after-market stuff, the 275$ I paid for a PC V for my (then) new VFR800 was the best money spent this year; totally eliminated the jerkiness (which the dealer said it's 'normal' for a V4 compared to inline4 where I was coming from) and...
