While I don't have children, I am a car / bike enthusiast. Over the last 10 years what I have done is put a lot of money and time into my own training. What I've noticed is I'm a much better rider / driver because of it. This keeps me safe and gives me the opportunity to take my car and bike to...

Budd's hands down. John Parker is awesome /thread .

So I just took the new S1000R out for a test ride... all I can say is WOW I really want one!!! Looks like I'll be upgrading at the end of the season :P

Sadly I'm not one of those people that have very good luck with car dealerships. The last experience I had was pretty ridiculous and slightly painful. Thank god I got a really good price on my car but I don't think I'll ever get any of my service or bring any other business to those guys ever...

haha have stalled mine too the engagement point is really high :P

I'm gonna have to agree with Sunny S on this one. I've ridden pretty much only Japanese bikes since I started a decade ago and recently made the switch to BMW. While I have had pretty terrible experienced with 2 out of 3 dealerships I've finally found one I like. As for the engineering... it...

So here's what I learned about ethanol in school... 1) it's hygroscopic (it likes water) so it will absorb water from the atmosphere and transport it through your engine which can cause rust and corrosion when you park it over the winter. 2) it's a an alcohol so it dries out rubber bits like...

Pickering here!

$5000 MAX budget ($4000 is ideal) Sorry I didn't see this as a requirement :P but that said I was looking at some older R1200R in the 5k range before picking up my current bike. You could always "modify" a bike that you like the great thing about nakeds are that they can be built a lot...

Hmmm... R1200R / RnineT ( even tho it's > 1000 cc I imagine the insurance to be resonable), Bonneville or VFR800?

81 but close! It had the digital dash which was a huge pain to rewire but got er done and it's working good with the 82 retro gauges! Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

lol wow I should not have clicked on that link.... it can not be unseen :(

Haha, ya right now it's in pieces I need to get some stuff painted, some new cables made and finish the subframe for the new seat. Early summer I'm hoping to have her on the road I'm itching to stretch her legs :D

@jimsun here's where I'm at with it right now :p Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

Ride it! haha I have ridden my cafe project around when it was half done (but still mechanically sound) with a beat up tank, weird grips and cruiser pegs. It's all about fun and if people look at you weird they're just jealous!

Dear Mods: if this post isn't ok please take it down. But that said I work in Richmond Hill and have gone to Z1 which is about 5 mins a way from my work for the last few years and I'm going to miss them now that they're gone. They're a bit far for me to continue regular maintenance with them...

I was with state farm for years, switched to TD after since they offered an alumni discount which ended up saving me a ton. I have stuck with TD for the last few years and haven't had a problem yet. My rates haven't gone up too much maybe 10% in the last 3-4 years.

I wouldn't take it personally there are people on here with strong opinions about safety and what should and shouldn't be worn. You're your own decision maker and should in the end buy what you like. There's a system called SHARP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHARP_%28helmet_ratings%29) it's...

osbe tornado or the nexx vintage ones are my favourite open faced helmets.
