    Test riding the Honda VT750C Phantom (aka blacked out Shadow) - Got questions?

    Me buying something? Not likely. I was test riding it for a review. I like to call it my job, but my fiancee will tell you that it's really a hobby that sometimes makes a little money. Riding/driving new bikes/cars every week, getting flown out to distant locations for launch events, being...

    Test riding the Honda VT750C Phantom (aka blacked out Shadow) - Got questions?

    Perhaps this is a newbie question, but club? As in GTAM? If so, then I was here many years ago, just fell off for awhile. Back now seeing as some of my day-to-day work is very much involved with motorcycles/scooters. It's a great place to chat about the related with like minded people. Like...

    Test riding the Honda VT750C Phantom (aka blacked out Shadow) - Got questions?

    So I'm test riding the 2013 Honda Phantom this week. It's basically a Shadow 750 that's been blacked out. This bike reminds me a lot of the Harley Davidson Breakout that I tested a few months ago, just smaller, easier to handle, and not nearly as much of a stunner on the finishing touches...

    Harley Davidson Breakout - Startup and Walkaround

    Unfortunately it was only my bike for a seven days, but I did love it so in that short time. That rear tire is 240 wide. Combined with the front rake, this beast does not corner easily. You've got to pick out your line before you enter the corner, cuz once your in, you're committed my friend...

    Ticketed for filtering, and even the lawyer sees no way out

    Re: The 11b, from what I understand, I can't put forward a motion for it after requesting a continuance. I'll talk to the lawyer about it again. Re: MarcosSantiago: That's exactly the kind of prior case I was looking for! Can't believe one exists and was found. It's definitely a worthy case to...

    Ticketed for filtering, and even the lawyer sees no way out

    Good catch, I meant stopped cars, not parked. Both lanes were active traffic, just stopped at a light. For me it's simply not wanting the ticket because I don't want it affecting my insurance rating. Already have one for speeding (125km/h on the 401) from a couple years ago that the insurer is...

    Kushog Lake Rd...Minden, ONT

    We did Kushog Lake Rd and Deep Bay during the 2011 Mad Bastard. My best memory from it was stopping in at the Firehouse Restaurant (you can't miss it, it looks like an old fire station and has a vintage fire truck parked in the front.) My fiancee and I hopped in a yellow peddle boat that was...

    Ticketed for filtering, and even the lawyer sees no way out

    I didn't know that was an option until I spoke to a lawyer after asking for a continuance... lawyer said the same, although at that point it was too late. Note to anyone who wants to represent themselves in court: know your stuff really well, or hire someone that does!

    Ticketed for filtering, and even the lawyer sees no way out

    Last summer I was ticketed for filtering. I had a phone call with a prosecutor about it who refused to drop the charge, went to court more than a year after the ticket, and have now scheduled a second court date after requesting a continuance (asked for an opportunity to review the ticket...

    New to GTAM. Decent rider, better writer.

    Thanks @ROQET and @LonelyRider! @RetroGrouch - For a second I only saw one 'f' in the 'bff' and got a little worried! @sid_for_speed - A jam with riding multiple bikes at once? That's just the worst isn't it https://twitter.com/i/#!/autoKsS/media/slideshow?url=pic.twitter.com%2FGlwvHIip

    2013 Touring Plans

    @djez - Have you seen the the Tourism Ontario sponsored top ten Ontario routes? They were handing them out on cards at the Motorcycle Show a couple weeks ago, not sure if it's online too. If I can find that card, I'll post it online later. All of the routes are Barrie and North of it. Supposed...

    Mc`s in the gta

    Not talking about it is also the second rule of the club. Although, this much wordage about it definitely seems like 'talking about it.'

    Mc`s in the gta

    There's a secret invite-only MC with riders based out of the GTA. I can't talk about it because it's the first rule of the club :cool:
