I realize the hub-centric steering idea isn't exactly, but it looks like Vyrus is trying to make it work. In combination with the other design elements of this bike, it seems they've come up with something quite unique. I'm glad they're going racing with it, I really want to see how competitive...

Has anyone seen these motorcycle reviews that Gizmag has been putting out? Absolutely top-notch work. They really should do more of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXwFacJdMf8&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyZ64Ef-yaY&feature=player_embedded...

Just got the wheels off my bike to get new tires put on tomorrow. Was able to look under the swingarm... I knew it was dirty, but man, was it filthy! I need to do a valve inspection too, so I figured this would be a good opportunity to clean out some of the gunk. Not sure how thorough I want to...

I'm considering keeping my Ninja 250 for a little while longer. Honestly, the only complaint I've really had about the bike is highway cruising RPMs, which I hope to alleviate with sprockets. If I decide to keep it longer, I can start to think about upgrading bits on it since I'm not worried so...

I've got the service manual, so this should be a breeze, but thought I'd make sure. Need to get new tires mounted. Last time I rode in, with my mom driving my tires in the cage. This time, I'm going to just bring the wheels and install them back on the bike myself. 1. Remove cotter pin and...

This is my 2nd season of riding, and I'm still very much a noob. So I take any incident and try to learn from it. Scenario: Heading westbound on Eglinton, making a left onto Don Mills to head southbound. Was on my way to the gym, and there was heavy traffic. Car in front of me creeps into...

And I can't seem to do it. I've been riding for a while and think of myself to be a competent rider. I've been practicing proper body positioning for quite some time, and at my last race on a CBR125, I was so far off the bike that my bum was no longer on the seat. I was so low to the ground, I...

I'm planning on buying a ton of fireworks tonight for Canada Day. I've never bought any before. Suggestions are appreciated!

So the GF and I are heading to Mexico next Tuesday for an all-inclusive resort for the week. Planning on taking it really easy, enjoying the resort and the town, doing what we can, when we want. I have a feeling that I'm going to get bored pretty quickly if we just stay on the resort, so I...

http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/308/10271/Motorcycle-Article/2012-Honda-Gold-Wing-Adventure-Ride.aspx I just started reading it, but looks like Honda sent them out on the BRP down to Deal's Gap on the new Goldwings, 2-up with their SOs. Sounds epic, and is exactly the kind of trip I would like to...

That's a photo taken by US 129 Photos at the Dragon this past Friday. I wasn't pushing myself to 10/10, since it's the street and I didn't want to die. More like 6 or 7. Anyway, I was focusing on being smooth and being consistent, and I did my best with my body position. Some things that I...

If someone has a front stand that lifts from the steering stem, and not from the front axle, that I could borrow, I would really appreciate it. Would just need it for a couple of hours or so. Have to check my front forks. Thanks!

This article at webBikeWorld: http://www.webbikeworld.com/r4/ria-permanent-anti-fog-coating/ I think we should push our helmet manufacturers to start using this stuff if it works as well as he says. My Shoei fogs like no tomorrow.

I'm starting this post off now to get my thoughts in now. The review will be started properly next week, and updated as I continue to use these tires. A little bit of background on the 08+ Ninja 250. When the new model was first released, Kawasaki fitted them with Bridgestone BT-45 tires. These...

Re: Post Pics of your Bike. I just put a deposit on this today. Owner should be delivering it by this weekend. I love her already! 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 250R SE with 4200 km on it.
