    Harley Davidson sales up 13% stock, revenue soars

    I think sales for all recreational goods have been up since Covid, so i wouldn't give credit to the new CEO just yet. the PanAm just launched, and reliability or regular folk are yet to review any.

    Small trailers?

    I'm in a similar boat, need something small, folding, and can be stored easily. Atm I have to keep using my dad's truck to tow/use the bed. All I have is the Golf, and my options so far ? This is someone in Ontario, trailer in a Bag, apparently breaks down and fits in the trunk. Can't find...

    Buying used from a dealer

    Pricing it out with labour? Stand and rear linkage plates are $100<, easy swap. Forks were probably dropped in the triples, vs all new springs

    Buying used from a dealer

    They seem to be resolving it and making it right, its a pretty easy fix, I wouldn't worry about it. I've gone to see a bike, and found it low, brought it up, and only then did the dealer realize. Looking on eBay, side stands for the bike are $50 and under, so also not a major expense if it needs...

    Buying used from a dealer

    What bike is it? Not a big deal, people lower them all the time. Depending on the bike, just rear shock links, and lower front forks in the triple clamps. Sometimes it means getting a new side stand

    M1 insurance

    For those waiting, 5 years ago, I did the M2 course in July... I recall LC's offered some night ones then, and later on when I did the M, end of year discounts. Even if I did the M2 in July, I didn't get a bike till Sept/Oct, that's when end of season sales began. I've always bought in the Fall...

    A Ride up North - James Bay

    I know a few people who left BC and moved to Calgary for the better costs of living, yet Alberta treats them well. Why would BC have a thing against Ontario, or the rest of Canada? Even the slogan "The Best place on Earth" is pretty arrogant IMO. I know places on Earth that are much better. As...

    A Ride up North - James Bay

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/pandemic-bc-alberta-tourism-tensions-1.5599998 why are they so arrogant? I know this hate was all before Covid too, now it just gave certain people a reason to be aggressive Albertans were super nice, so many saw the Ont plates and started a...

    A Ride up North - James Bay

    https://www.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=2184105 Oh boy... I remember doing cross canada last year, and when some places had dine in options I would try hard to make sure they didn't know I was from out of province. As much as I love BC and dream of moving there, in my many trips there, I have found...

    Bikes with abnormally low km's

    depends on the models and how many previous owners. Though it's not alarming, esp given our climate and riding season. Also, if one were to roll back the odo, taking it to only 50km's would be very suspicious. One look at the tires and the condition would give it away

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    woah... If you are looking at such bikes, PM me, I can give the contact of someone who deals in these bikes and rates them as such. A lot of companies don't know the difference between 250's

    2021 Day Trips!

    Just ride, these rules will only get stricter, and will be in place for a long long time. It's already been over a year, and I won't be surprised it goes on for 2 more. Neighbor knows a friend working in the Gov, they were told not to return to work till 2023, keep wfh till then. So they have it...

    who typically has the best insurance rates??

    Not sure if its my postal code or what, and last year I switched from Echelon to Intact (From NPS to Riders Plus), because they quoted $600-700 more, not having a dual sport category for the T7. I'm still paying more, a lot more than what I was for the SV650N :( One reason I got the KTM. If...

    Good ol reliable...

    They are good, they changed the handling of the bike drastically when i got them, more round and the bike leaned in much more. At first I though I installed the wheels on wrong, like they were all loose, took me a few days to adjust to the feel vs stock. They wear well too, think I put 10k on...

    who typically has the best insurance rates??

    That never happened :( - I started a few years back at 25 yrs old. Paying $1800 on the SV650N. Got the 1 yr, clean record, and the CB500XA (with ABS) to reduce rates hopefully. Nope, went up to $1900, with a Smaller bike. At the time Aviva dropped anyone with less than 5yrs exp, and all the...

    Good ol reliable...

    Nice! Did you get a taller rear then? Dunlop just released these too, for some reason they always use the CBX for their off-road/adv tires. probably to show it comes in 17's https://advrider.com/dunlop-announces-new-mutant-tire/

    Fobo Bike 2 TPMS

    Guess it depends on use case scenarios too. The one's I got alert when the temperature gets too high as-well, like hot days. Nice to see the reading just on the bike before a ride or during right there on the handlebar. For off-road, we lower pressures and use it alot, then off the trail raise...

    Original long way round

    What lead up to that scene was him really wanting the KTM, and pushing Ewan to go for it too, he loved doing wheelies on it, and overall was the bike he wanted... the bike he wanted for free. Ripping the poster off doesn't change his impression of the bikes, just the idea they somehow 'ripped'...

    Original long way round

    Those who want a KTM, know it for their needs and purpose. I applaud KTM for telling Charlie and Ewan no. Charlie cried like a baby, and it showed he really wanted it over the BMW. That was great free marketing. KTM has a marketing strategy, and sure it can be said they could have, however...

    Original long way round

    They didn't drop the ball. KTM's slogan is Ready to Race, and an adventure trip around the world with 2 actors has nothing to do with that. They dominated Dakar, Enduro's, and a lot of other off-road events where marketing money went to better use. If one even wants a Dakar KTM base bike to kit...
