Decided not to get back into motorcycles. I wish I would, but financially it just doesn’t make sense with the insurance, and I’ve had too many close calls to warrant me coming back. I’m sticking with buying a project car instead.

Thanks. I had a CBR500R as my first bike but quickly got bored of it after a season. I’m looking for something with a bit more power than thebCBR500

Hey everyone, I’m getting back into riding and was hoping to get some suggestions on which bike to choose. I’ve owned a CBR500R and a GSXR600 before. I really love the sound that the GSXR600 and other 4 cylinder bikes make and would love for my next bike to have a similar sound if possible. It...

Hey everyone, I road for about 2 years, but sold my bike last spring and have been regretting it since. I’m looking at getting back into riding but need some assistance getting insurance. I’m 27 will be 28 when I get my bike Have my M2 2 years riding experience I’m looking at getting a...

I was forced to ride home in the rain last night for the first time, and am not sure what exactly, if anything, I need to clean in order to prevent rust. I cleaned/lubed my chain last weekend and read that a lot of people clean/lube their chain after riding in the rain, so I'll be doing that...

Hey everyone, Now that the colder weather is upon us, I'm in the need for some warmer gear. I use my bike for a commuter as much as I can for my job, which means I'm riding around as early as 5:30am, depending on where the job site it. What would you guys recommend to keep my hands warm...

I'm looking to buy a street jacket today, but am looking for something blue and something that would fit a 6'4 person. I assume not all stores would carry those two specifics, as most jackets I find online are all black. I plan on checking out the tent sale at Riders Choice today, and probably...

I just got my bike today after work and couldn't wait to take it out. I've never ridden a bike before so it was pretty intimidating. I stalled it once but got it going the second try. My first corner was definitely a little too wide, I need to learn how to turn sharper at low speeds. I...

Hey everyone, I work a construction trade as an apprentice (for another couple years), so I generally have to drive my own vehicle to the job site. One of the main reasons I bought a bike was to hopefully use it as a commuter since I currently drive a lifted and regeared pig of a truck that gets...

I just bought these boots yesterday, first pair of motorcycle boots so I'm not sure if it's a common feature or not, but my search results came up empty. they're AlpineStar brand and on the baby toe side of each boot there's a plastic chunk (I assume the plastic is for when you're leaning into...

Morning everyone, I was looking at some gear last night and came across Motorcycle-Superstore.com Everything seems to be extremely cheap/on sale. I was wondering if anyone has ever ordered from them, and what's the service like if you have.

I'm sitting at a dealership right now after looking at a bike. I'm wondering where around the Milton area I can go to buy gear like a helmet, shoes, etc? thanks

I know that the obvious answer would be full coverage just to keep your *** completely covered in case anything happens, but I feel like I don't need everything covered with my preowned bike. I live in a fairly safe town (Around Burlington area) and the bike will be stored in a security system...

I'm getting closer to buying my first bike, but am having a hard time trying to figure out a way to transport the bike back to my place. I'll have my M1 and exit course complete when I buy the bike, but how do I get it back to my house? I have a rather large, lifted truck... So lifting the...

Hoping someone with a similar situation can chime in here. I'm wanting to write my M1 tomorrow after work, which means I'll get to the DriveTest location around 4pm, but they close at 5. Do you think they'll let me write, or will it be too late since there's usually a short waiting period...

I'm struggling here.. I keep asking so many questions about starting out, and here's another one.. I'm 6'4'' and 210lbs, long legged. I've been leaning towards the Ninja 300 since the only other bike I thought would be a good starter bike would be a GS500, but those aren't exactly my style. I...

I'm looking at a few bikes and I asked someone if the bike came safetied, because if I'm not mistaken, you need to safety the vehicle to register it as a new owner? The person said it doesn't come safetied because it doesn't need to be for another couple of years, but it will pass safety...

Evening everyone, Still planning out my future motorcycle that I'm hopefully getting this month, along with my M1 and exit course. My current insurance company won't even insure a 300, but they recommended me to the insurance company - Riders Plus, who gave me a decent quote at 1400 for the...

Afternoon I'm planning on doing the course sometime this month if it's available. I don't have my license yet, nor a bike. I'm curious to know what steps I need to take first. Buy the bike, then insure it with just a m1 so I can take it to the exit course to use? None of my friends ride, so...

Hey guys/girls, Hopefully buying my first bike within the next couple of weeks, but I have no clue what exactly I should be looking for when looking at the bikes. I'm finding a few bikes have scratches on the fairings from people dropping them, but they say there's nothing mechanically wrong...
