Well the track sounds pretty cool, at least. As long as you're still riding then that's ok!! I'm looking to upsize to a KTM next year. Just need to win the lottery first ;)
Nothing's better than Ganny. Have fun!! The East end of the forest is my favourite, you can really crank up the speed on some of the stretches. That 650's gotta have some serious bite!
Talk to me! I'm organizing a female ride coming up in early September!! Plus there's Motoress.com and this group I made: http://www.meetup.com/Woman-Motorcycle-Riders-or-Toronto/
You're going to love riding. It's a way of life!! Welcome!! -Emma.
Ok ok, if you don't mind figuring out the premix for the fuel then get a 2-stroke! At the end of the day, I just see it as a preference thing. I dislike the sound and a lot of them rely on the kick-start. But yeah - advanced riders must love them for the power and longevity of their life span...
Oh -- and don't worry about falling or getting hurt. The gear is pretty decent these days, the most you'll get is a couple of bruises. Much better than having a cab hit you downtown! Honda 250 CRF 4-stroke. -- do it! :)
I started with my CRF 230 Honda and I love it. So durable and reliable (Hondas are known for that) -- I'd advise against any 2 strokes because of the oil/gas combo every time you fill the tank. Such a drag for beginner riders! Get something you don't mind lifting up every time you drop it, some...
I prefer the nod, keeps my hand on the clutch where it should be. Plus it's cooler. I've noticed scooter riders haven't seemed to pick up on this culture trend yet... they'll get there ;)
I'm with BMW Toronto and we still have a RSV4 in stock. Unfortunately we cut our ties with Aprilia/Piaggio so we're mostly sold out now. Our S1000RR's are pretty sexy though... I recommend coming in and checking them out. :)
Welcome!! I'm looking to organize a womens ride day soon, actually. Can we all gather here to set up a time/place in Toronto? http://www.meetup.com/Woman-Motorcycle-Riders-or-Toronto/
Welcome! Join our meetup page so we can all organize more womens ride days. I'm working on one in the near future if we get enough people out! http://www.meetup.com/Woman-Motorcycle-Riders-or-Toronto/
Happy riding!
Friends!! I'm with BMW Toronto and I'm organizing a group ride on Sept 3rd (Or sooner really, if we get enough people) but come one come all :) I'm so happy I just found this thread. I love my R1200R and I'm so happy all of you are equally proud of your bikes. Let me know if you're interested...
I'll be up there during the weekend! Would love to join you guys. If we miss each other though I'm organizing a ride on Sept 3rd with BMW Toronto - more the merrier!

and p.s. I'm 25... with an R1200R. Just noticed we're all sharing our stats here haha. We're thinking Sept. 3rd for a group ride but could definitely work out something sooner if we get enough people! These forums are fabulous!
I'm organizing a ride coming up with BMW Toronto! We're hoping to get as many young riders out as possible! Let me know if you're interested: http://www.meetup.com/Woman-Motorcycle-Riders-or-Toronto/
