That really sucks to hear man. Surprised they thwarted the security cameras, I think it was probably by accident. In reality thieves use stolen plates on the vans so it would never get traced back to them. What security did you have on your bike?

Email sent. Is he always trackside for the races? Who am I looking for? Does Mr. Bickle have a first name? If the bike is "rideable" I was already planning on coming out to to do some recon and see what type of machines are racing in the various classes. This would be a bonus. Luckily my...

I'm all about that Japanese reliable indestructability, no way I'm gettin an Italian bike. So some quick and dirty skimming looks like the Z50R became the XR50 which became the CRF50. Looks like the XR50 and CRF50 are basically the same bike except for the plastics? And the Z50R has a much...

Did not know suit alterations was a thing. Can pant legs be reduced? My chicken legs are swimming in my Missile V2 pants.

I likey me two strokes. I has a YSR80 and a GPR50R. The YSR has 12" wheels and the GPR 17" wheels. :( Tell me moar about these Honda 50s? Google search nets me too many models. I'm guessing not the old trail bikes? Is racing happening this winter? Where can I find more info on Forumla Kartways...

https://www.advpulse.com/adv-news/new-ece-standards-to-increase-helmet-safety-and-price/ You sir are correct. The graphic doesn't make my RF-1200 any less track worthy, I just like the graphic on the RF-1200, the adult me knows the K6 is a better helment. Turns out I'm no longer a Shoei size...

Explain me where/how I can race 50cc bikes in Ontario?! Are these two strokes or chinese pocket bikes? Or super fancy Italian pocket bikes?

Bang for buck, it just isn't worth it, and is very dated compared to the lid I wanted. It was an RF-1200 Dystopia graphic, vs an AGV K6. I was actually initially holding out for an X-FOURTEEN but when the RF-1200 went on sale I had a hard time justifying the price gap. When I then started...

I see. Looks like I'm taking a hit on shipping and exchange rate fees, the Shoei is going back. Sigh... I'll print myself out a DOT sticker for the back of my helmet for when I ride on the street in the US. No joke, that's the plan. I was mainly referring to their track days though. The USA...

I have a shiny new Shoei helmet in the mail. I picked it specifically because everywhere I skimmed rules and regulations for track days and schools they always mentioned they wanted SNELL certification. I'm considering sending it back. I am regretting my purchase as I really wanted another lid...

Thank you, seems the series changed names when ownership changed. Skimmed an article about that somewhere just a minute ago. Glad to hear motorcycle racing is still going at Shannonville. Off to read the rulebook... And yeah, I don't consider CSBK regional, even though it sort of is. It aint...

Bump from the dead. What organization is RACE? Useless bloody acrynym to use when trying to Google a motorcycle racing organization... Do they no longer exist since Shannonville was sold? So far for regional motorcycle racing in Ontario the only two I've found are: -VRRA -SOAR Who else is there?

Curious, were you using any type of security? Disc lock(s)? Chain? Did you have your steering locked? Must be some surveillance from people/vehicle entering the garage. Did they use a van? Truck? Trailer? Ride it away?

Bring her by, I'll top yours up for the season. Not at all true. Pete's site charges about $27 for shipping that single rear tire I need, bringing prices in line with F9 and GP. However, add a second tire, and shipping is only about $30 for the both. Pete's is SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper. Paying...

You foresee wrong.
