    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    In retrospect, the average time I have owned my bikes is 2 years. The main issue is that I'm a ***** of marketing and shiny things. I see something new (new for me), and I want it. Even when I have a bike, I spend some hours per week watching ads for used bikes, thinking of adding a new bike...

    Installing crash bars on Triumph Tiger Sport 660

    Hey! Thanks for chatting, it was great meeting you. Hope you're having a good time in Monterrey. Honestly, I don’t remember it being this tough. My memory's kinda shot since I installed those things like three years ago. I remember it took me about 2 hours to get them off the bike. The biggest...

    Weather

    On my way home, a fellow rider passed by me and I instantly felt jealous (I was driving). My next thought was, “Screw it, I’m going for a quick ride.” The moment I stepped out of the car and saw patches of ice on the street, all my bravery disappeared.

    North American International Motorcycle Supershow - Jan 9-11, 2026

    How about checking out the Diavel 1200, 1260, or V4 if you're looking to keep that cruiser vibe?

    Daily sports car?

    Congrats! And excuse my ignorance with the newer Bavarian stuff. That’s an M2, right? The M4 might be chubbier? I’ve always loved the smaller M cars. I still remember spotting a 1M near my parents’ place, and every now and then I catch myself daydreaming about picking up a used 2018–2020 M2.

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    It kinda makes sense in countries where motorcycles are actually used as real transportation and not just weekend toys, right? For commuting or lane-filtering, a sensible middle-weight bike is way more practical than a 200+ kg Porkcati that drinks gas like a Mexican drinks Coca-Cola and...

    Donating to charities

    Just wanted to spread the word that today, any donation to the Toronto Public Library is being triple-matched. TPL has played a big role in my wife’s and my learning journey since arriving in Canada. It has provided us with safe spaces (some incidents with the homeless, but it's not TPL's...

    Would you buy a demo bike ?

    They had two models I liked. One had like "200" kms on it and was $4.5k off, while the other one with "500" kms had a $5k discount. In the case of these two specific bikes, their warranty is prorated. Unfortunately, I don't have a baller status...... yet 🙄 Phew! It's probably a good thing...

    Would you buy a demo bike ?

    Would you buy a demo bike with under 1,000 km? I’ve always had the impression that demo bikes tend to live a hard early life. Most of them aren’t even past the break-in period, and you just know a bunch of ham-fisted riders at demo days have been bouncing off the rev limiter (honestly… I...

    2025 Weekly BurgeRR Meetup - Wednesdays @7pm

    Just wondering if there’s going to be another GTAM Evoex’s BurgerRR Go-Karts GP Winter 2025/26? (Title inspired by the absurdly long F1 GP names) Or is it too early? Do we need to wait until we hit true “no-bikes-on-the-street” conditions?

    [Amazon.ca] 23$ Alpine MotoSafe Race - Motorcycle Ear Plugs for Wind Noise Reduction - 20%off

    Thanks for sharing this! I can't recommend this product enough. My wife, being super thoughtful, got me a pair after the foamy orange disposable earplugs kept popping out of one ear for no reason, which defeated the noise reduction purpose. I also tried another model, but the earplugs were way...
