    Strangest Thing You Carried on the bike of your bike?

    Was that in bag, a box, a cage, or what? I'm picturing an Ace Ventura scenario.

    Fallen Riders/In Memory of - COMMENTS

    I haven't been riding on the street the last few seasons because I don't care for the apparent magnet that is attached to the rear end of motorcycles. In reality, I think it's just a hyper awareness of how much it would suck to get rear ended. The decisions get sketchier when people are...

    Strangest Thing You Carried on the bike of your bike?

    Road hockey net. I more or less wore it like clothing. Short trip. Guitars, also for short trips.

    airbrushing on helmet

    That stuff sounds awesome. Vinyl gets extremely heavy, so that aero wrap is a no brainer.

    cc limit for new riders

    You're right that publicly traded companies do not make cop out statements, and never publicize when they pull out of a market for profitability reasons. KTM is not trying to put a positive spin on failure. This would be transparent, and tantamount to actively devaluing KTM's market value. There...

    airbrushing on helmet

    Vehicle grade vinyl with a 2K urethane clear coat over top to seal it. The result is vivid and exceptionally durable. Pretty sure that's what you'll find on every custom helmet at the top level of competition. You'll also find that on most race car liveries, though sometimes without the 2K. Same...

    Hilarious Kijiji Bike and Stuff Ads

    Yeah, I meant to put "mods" in quotation. Lots of cosmetic stuff that may or may not meet safety specs, lighting swaps from unknown manufacturers, cheap and noisy slip ons, etc.

    I'll have to check that out, kiwi. Like I said, I've come across a few that were really interesting. RoyalJordanian comes to mind.

    Hilarious Kijiji Bike and Stuff Ads

    I'm new to shopping for a bike on Kijiji, but not new to shopping for bikes or bikes in general. The thing that has struck me so far is that everyone's bike is way overpriced, and they're trying to recover the costs of their mod choices. This is ridiculous because a) mods depreciate at a rate of...

    Started a new vlog channel SUPPORT

    What is the point of "motovlogging", and why is it so popular? I'm pretty sure that you have to be seriously distracted from your driving to do this. There are a couple of guys on YouTube that have some interesting footage and things to say, but it seems like most of it is 50+ guys who just...

    When a seller says "let me be honest with you"

    The best deals I have ever had on used vehicles have been from people who were utterly clueless about the selling process, kept their mouths shut unless I asked a question while I looked over the vehicle for quite a while, and didn't even know they needed a UVIP. Things always get weird when...

    Who wound up with my 1987 FZ750 pure sports?

    Hmmm. It's pretty hard for a police department to file a stolen vehicle report without a VIN. The report would be automatically flagged by the databasing software when required fields are left blank, and the report wouldn't pass internal audit. Even missing vehicle reports tend to be the same...

    cc limit for new riders

    Some interesting points. I've always been a fan of draconian penalties for things like this. Some superstars are going to kill themselves no matter what, but once you catch someone who appears to have mistaken Ontario roadways for a TT circuit, make it either illegal or financially unrealistic...

    Hello, I've always found this site quite helpful for information relevant to really any Ontarian interested in motorcycles. I've finally registered and I'd like to say thanks to those responsible for keeping the site running, useful and interesting. I'm currently licensed, but not riding. We...
