    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Niagara Falls. A group of 5 sport bikes on Stanley Ave, an R1 & a bunch of Kawis, I was on the Blue GSXR. I also saw a group of Sport bikes on Pelham Road near Effingham. It was a great day for a ride!

    2010 GSXR600 won't start

    I can't say for sure but I think the injector cleaner does help get rid of the water in bad fuel. Like I said, it worked for me but it was tough to get going. At one point I could not start the bike so pretty much the same boat you are in now. Is the fuel level low?

    2010 GSXR600 won't start

    I have same bike and same issue a month ago. It started rough then wouldn't idle unless I worked the throttle a bit. It was tough to start too. It had run great on the last outing. I was low on fuel at the time. I put 1/2 a tank of fresh fuel with injector cleaner in the bike then started...

    Phil Collins fans in the house?

    Not so much a fan of his solo work but was a Genesis fan. Huge respect for his music weather I like it or not, a talented man to be sure. Classic Phil Collins with that Genesis edge: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXq65-jRTPA

    state farm ridiculous

    I'm with State Farm & insured only the bike. I chose to bundle the house & truck as well for the savings 6 months later when they came due. Side note: My house was damaged by a storm & State Farm was easy to deal with & I had over $15K in damage.

    any back country campers here?

    Water can be boiled & cooled but it is time consuming. You can use tablets to treat the water. I bought a purification pump. Simply drop the rubber suction tube into the water & pump the handle. It purifies pretty much any water. Check an Outdoors store for more info...MSR makes a good one...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Four guys in Niagara Falls. Fueled up at the Shell station on Stanley & headed out to the QEW. Yeah I saw you. I was the blue GSXR you saw on Stanley. I was also the guy you buzzed on the QEW just past Thorold Stone Road...doing well over 180 I would think...right before you & your buddy...

    I thought about it but won't be out in that area. I hope the game swings through Niagara for a bit & I can join in.

    Most hated Canadian?

    Definitely Nickelback. I have stopped listening to radio stations who continue to commit Nickelback...yes that is correct...commit...it's a sin & sins are committed.

    Transporting a bike... on it's side?

    Ratchet strap the forks & remove the windscreen as mentioned above. If you insist to lay it on it's side simply wrap a chain around the front wheel & drag it behind the truck. I think a covered trailer with a ramp door is about $30.00 from U haul.

    Toxic work colleagues

    Damn, I laughed out loud...thanks. OP, as fun as Inferno's advice may be you have to ride it out. She is thriving on the negative interaction and trying to make you come down to her level. Best defense for this type of person is avoid face to face interaction and copy the boss on all emails...

    anyone else put on 100km today (wednesday)?

    Sorry, not 100km. 65 was all I had time for. Good for you with 100!

    When does riding season officially start in Ontario?

    I commuted to work in December. I managed at least three rides (1 hour +) a month over the "winter". I consider riding season to be when I use my bike to commute to work...It started today! Happy spring.
