I've ordered parts quite a few times from Ready Honda (Honda and Yamaha parts along with some GIVI stuff). Friendly, knowledgeable, good service and competitive price.

John at is the not-to-miss part of the Bent Bikes experience! In all seriousness though, he's awesome - he's forgotten more about bikes than I could ever hope to learn in a lifetime. He may even be able to get you a compatible replacement if he can't straighten them.

Never experienced ant buffeting with the MRA either.... been up to 160... MPH... ahem, of course that was only on a track... ahem. ;)

I still get the full wind hitting my helmet, but that's partially due to the setup of my bike. It's a sport-tourer with a heavy lean towards the sport side so the windshield is fairly low. The stock windshield would hit me around mid-chest, with the Vario it hits me around the top of my...

I have one on my Triumph Sprint ST - works great. I have it at the highest position for highway travel and don't experience any buffeting. In the middle of the summer, especially in the city I will put it in the lowest position so that I can get more airflow at my chest level.

Town Moto has a good selection of retro stuff: http://townmoto.com/

If he didn't give you a ticket, then you're all good. He likely got another call that took precedent. Consider yourself lucky!

I've orders lots from here, they are great for old bike parts and they're in Ontario so shipping is quick with no cross-border hassles.

Argh... I'm away this weekend, otherwise I would go. Will join if it gets rescheduled or if there's a follow-up ride. Have fun!

I see the constant postings of stolen bikes from condo parking garages, this seems like a great security product... IF you can convince the building management to allow you to install it. http://www.bunkersecurity.com/motoparking/en/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkov81xuafM A bit...

This sounds like a cool ride indeed... I'd definitely be interested in going.

A wonky sidestand switch perhaps... try disconnecting the switch and see if it still happens.

If your system is unable to power a gps, then there is definitely something wrong with either your stator or regulator/rectifier. The power draw on a gps is miniscule and if that's putting you over you need to get the electrical checked out, a second battery won't help.

Dynabeads perhaps? They are used for balancing the tires instead of weights taped to your wheels.

Engine speed should increase at a constant rate in relation to your road speed. If your engine revs a bit higher and your road speed has to catch up to the engine when you aren't touching your clutch, then your clutch is slipping.

You are correct, but trying to explain the exact workings gets a bit convoluted... so for inreb: Clafification of the Official language - the clutch is engaged when the lever is fully released (allowing full power to transfer from engine to transmission) and clutch is disengaged when the...

Welcome! The U-Haul motorcycle trailers are great. Cheap and easy to tow. It has a chock built into the front of it already, all you will need is to bring your own straps (or rent them). The extra insurance is $9, it's up to you whether you get that or not, I typically do just because...

What frekeyguy said. If you adjust it according to the manual and leave a bit of slack in the line, this will allow the clutch springs to fully release and push the clutch plates together, therefore fully disengaging. If it didn't fully disengage, then you would likely experience clutch...

I hate to do it but no room in my garage and I could use the money so I'm selling my 96 Yamaha V-Max, $3800 obo. Bike's in excellent shape and motor runs strong. Mileage is 55000km but engine was completely rebuilt 10000km ago. Here's a link to the Kijiji ad...

Very sorry to hear that. Wouldn't be the same without you, so I think we can wait for your return. Hope it all works out well for you and your family. Best wishes, Ed
