    Huntsville Haliburton Heat - Saturday July 18

    I rode with you a few years ago on my CBR, it was a great time. My first group ride in fact. I'd like to come but my Magna fuel tank doesn't make it much past 200km. Write me down as a Maybe, I'll know for sure tomorrow

    Do you fit the stereotype for your bike?

    Hmmmm that's a good idea! I ride a 29" bmx and always wondered how I could take it with me...... As for the OP, I don't really fit the stereotype. My bike is 2 years older than I am, a vintage muscle cruiser, and I would say I'm more of a supermoto/hooligan bike guy. But I love her!

    Motorcycle Life Expectancy ... guess which brand wins over 25 yr trend?

    Do it! Love my 84 V30. I've put on over 16000km in 2 seasons without a hiccup. Up to 69k now and runs like she's brand new!

    Winter indoor racing in North York.

    Cool, I know that guy. Got my rear shock and street tires + some other goodies from him. This racing sounds cool but I threw my knobbies back on for some fun in the snow. And I have a massive rear sprocket, my crf50 tops out at 31kph in 4th lol. Do these guys stunt in the summer? I can hold a...

    Cherry Fires on Remembrance Day

    I'm sure they were fighting for a bunch of ungrateful snowflakes then too eh? You dove deep for that one.

    Cherry Fires on Remembrance Day

    What a **** show. Fired for projecting an opinion that at least half the population agrees with. I stand with him %100 and believe what he said was absolutely correct.

    Where to practice wheelies?

    I got mine from a friend who was moving and couldn't take it at the time. But they can be bought from those chinese ripoff scooter/atv/pocketbike places you see in the city for a few hundred bucks brand new.

    Where to practice wheelies?

    Get yourself a little 50cc dirt bike to learn on and you'll be holding balance point in just a few sessions. It's all about getting comfortable with feathering your rear brake and being smooth with your throttle hand. I have a chinese crf50 clone that I practice on constantly, I can hold a...

    Is this filtering?

    I wouldn't ride in that bit unless your absolutely certain there's no one in the parked vehicles, getting doored sucks. But as everyone else said, not legal (yet....)

    Mesh Gear That Will Hold Up to a Slide?

    I went down in a mesh Alpinestars jacket at about 60 and my forearm had some friction burn but didn't even get close to tearing through. Still wear that jacket, love it

    Tire puncture repair tool - great design

    I like the old string ones. I hollowed out a spot in my seat to fit strings and t-handle reamer/inserter. Ran one on my CBR for over 10000k, have 2 in my front car tire right now!

    DIY trailers

    That was very close to my plan, a basic square steel frame and princess auto axle with some sort of storage box I could attach for gear, or remove and bolt a chock on for the minibike. Is it worth putting leaf springs on? I would think it would be too light and just bounce around. My loads will...

    DIY trailers

    I'v seen a few guys with what look like DIY trailers riding downtown. Has anyone here made their own? I'm toying with the idea of building something to tow the minibike/camping luggage with my Magna. Obviously safety is a concern, my welds are good and not looking to do this on the cheap. Any...

    Every Thursday night - Lakeshore and Leslie???

    I would go tonight. Haven't been this year and the weather is oh so fresh. Anyone leaving from the newmarket-ish area?
