I had the same problem on an early GPZ. I gave up looking for a factory replacement and bought a small auto related cooling fan and shroud and installed a toggle switch to turn it on and off when needed, which was only for short times in city traffic on hot days. Cost me $45 plus an afternoon...

It's been a while since I attended so may do so this time. My recollection is a bit vague but what is the predominant theme of vintage stuff for sale or display ie: old British, Harley or Japanese?

In your Dad's case, would it be worth going with tires that have a harder compound to last longer? I was spoiled when I road my Wing over 20K between tire and brake pad changes. Last summer I was noting that the 2 yr old tire set on my Bandit was worn to being unsafe. I only tour with the...

My GF at the time purchased a pair of boots from the local Harley dealer and paid quite a bit for them altho she never deluged it. With a brand like that you'd think they'd last forever (sure) but the fact is that altho the leather quality was good, the soles wore down after three seasons to...

I have travelled to all of Italy numerous times and always thought it would be a great country to cover on a bike. I figure that three continuous weeks of that would be perfect.

A well stored low mileage sport touring bike. Refreshed with new oil, filter, plugs etc. One of Kawasaki's most dependable engines. I've already done a few hundred kms this spring on it. Good tires and brakes. No damage, never dropped. A good starter bike, with low insurance costs. Will...

Any in line four Suzuki with TSCC.

That's a good update as I haven't been to see them since they didn't care to sell me two bikes (for my brother and I) in the middle of winter of 2013. It was probably a good thing cuz it was my brother that pushed the brand when I wasn't too impressed with the particular model he wanted. I...

Too funny... I can barely manage driving my truck in Brampton traffic so I can't imagine what it's like to drive my bike there. Word out on this morning's news that Brampton residents pay the highest insurance premiums in Canada.... geez I wonder why ?

There was a time a few years ago that I could fax my Insurer 24 hrs prior to switching over coverage to a 2nd bike. So for weekend runs it worked well but over time they made it known that it wasn't welcomed on their part. They jacked up my rates the next season so moved to another Insurer and...

I've been reading a lot of posts about folks that are taking their bikes out of storage and experiencing carb issues. Some of the bikes sat for as little as four months and have clogged jets and associated orifices. Probably didn't drain the fuel bowls prior to storage or use stabilizer. I...

I now use 5100 in my 20yr old Kawasaki ZR-750. Rider's Choice had it on sale when they certified the bike. I bought it last winter with an original 3570km after it spent almost all it's life in storage. The Owner was a collector and could not recall whether he ever changed the oil so I dumped...

Geez, why park anywhere in that City. Even if parking was free in the downtown area, by the time you went to leave your bike will be displayed on someone's front lawn, and still have a ticket on it. PM to ask how I know.

For sure Honda has gone that way. When I dismount from my NC750X, my next ride is one of my in-line Suzuki's or Kawasaki's for that satisfaction I had for the last 50yrs.... :giggle:

Coincides with Peel Region's free battery pick going on now. Interesting....hmmm.

Yep, all sounds familiar. Reminds me and I hate to keep sounding like a TO historian but we in the late '60s and early '70s would do the 401 run from west TO to Scarborough at various times of the day and hated it. Sure we had no $ for protective apparel so looked very Squidly making stupid...
