    Ducati Streetfighter V4S or BMW S1000RR, which one will you choose?

    As the title says, which one will you choose? I know they are two different bikes, one is a super sport, and one is a naked. But let's say you need to pick one from the two, which one will you choose?

    How do naked bikes do on highway?

    I sold my ZX-6R two years ago, and I am thinking getting back on riding. I am thinking of getting a naked bike instead of a sport bike this time though. So how does a naked bike's comfort differ from a sport bike on highway speed? I used to go between 120-130km/h on the 401, and ride for about...

    Changing tires, local bike shop or dealership?

    So I am planning to get my front tire replaced. I don't have the tools and knowledge to do a tire change, so DIY is not an option for me...

    Any tips for a first timer for Fork of the credit?

    Thanks for all the replies lol... i went there early morning today. The hairpin is very challenging for me to be honest..luckily there was no other bikes and car, I ran too wide of the turn when I was going downhill, and ran into the other lane :( I actually found going uphill is a lot easier

    Any tips for a first timer for Fork of the credit?

    So I have been riding for 2.5 years now, and I want to give Fork of the credit a try. However, 99% of my riding consists of cursing on highway, and boring local city commute only...I haven't tried anything too crazy. (No extreme leaning or dragging the knees) Do you guys think I need more...

    Who rides too seldom due to fear of traffic ?

    I do not fear traffic, I just dislike sitting in traffic, and is only able to move very slowly, it makes my left hand very tiring. I don't know why people complain a lot about bad drivers on the road, I really haven't encountered one yet so far. Just drive defensively, try to make eye contact...

    Supersport vs ABS Supersport

    I upgraded to a ZX-6R ABS from a Ninja 300 ABS last year. I have put down 12000km on the 636 so far, and have never experienced the ABS kicked in. But my riding style is very conservative...never speed, always keep a safe distance between car in front and I, never rode in the rain, etc.

    Rev match, clutch wear question

    I am just wondering, does rev matching reduce a lot of clutch wear? I have been practicing rev matching for a while now, and still can't do it right every time. If I slowly let out the clutch every time I downshift, is it going to wear out the clutch very fast? (I am not saying I will ride the...

    What antifreeze is compatible with Kawasaki oem green coolant?

    I have called several kawasaki dealer, but all of them don't sell the oem green coolant. Some of them said it is ok to mix with other brands (e.g. Motol, prestone), some say just stick with the same colour. On the owner's manual, it says use antifreeze that contains ethylene glycol plus...
