    Oil on the tires sucks, but people are awesome.

    Riding along near Orangeville yesterday, I hit an oil slick without realizing it. On my next left curve, only doing about 50, tires lost traction mid-lean and the bike started to wobble. I applied some brake and straightened up the bike, fortunately managed to avoid a lowside/highside. Managed...

    Help me choose a 2nd bike...

    Hey guys - would appreciate your opinions. I'm in my 2nd season riding. Started on a Honda CBR 250R. Great beginner bike but it's time for me to think about moving up. I'd call myself an intermediate rider: good with clutch control, shifting, engine braking, slow speed maneuvers, etc. (Still...

    Overtakes on a 250 (or 125, for that matter)

    I'm riding a CBR 250R as my first bike. Great overall bike, I'm learning quickly. Only problem is it tops out around 130-140 (at least for a 190lb guy like me) and takes some time in top gear with the throttle wide open to get there anyway. Definitely not a bike where a simple twist of the wrist...

    Anybody want $25 for free?

    So, I recently opened a bank account with ING Direct. If you open any account with a minimum $100 in it and use my referral code, they'll instantly give you and me both $25. They have lots of good no-fee accounts for savings, chequing, RRSPs and more. Thought I'd share this with my fellow...

    Completing m2 exit test early?

    I've had my m2 license for about a year. I know you must wait 18-22 months to upgrade to M. Question is, can I take an m2 exit COURSE early, hang on to the papers if I pass the test, then turn them in to MTO after the required 18-22 months have passed? That's basically what I was able to do...

    Can anyone help me find this feature in the owner's manual? :cool: (maybe nsfw) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MDzDpiARF4
