I rode with you a few years ago on my CBR, it was a great time. My first group ride in fact. I'd like to come but my Magna fuel tank doesn't make it much past 200km. Write me down as a Maybe, I'll know for sure tomorrow

Hmmmm that's a good idea! I ride a 29" bmx and always wondered how I could take it with me...... As for the OP, I don't really fit the stereotype. My bike is 2 years older than I am, a vintage muscle cruiser, and I would say I'm more of a supermoto/hooligan bike guy. But I love her!

Do it! Love my 84 V30. I've put on over 16000km in 2 seasons without a hiccup. Up to 69k now and runs like she's brand new!

Cool, I know that guy. Got my rear shock and street tires + some other goodies from him. This racing sounds cool but I threw my knobbies back on for some fun in the snow. And I have a massive rear sprocket, my crf50 tops out at 31kph in 4th lol. Do these guys stunt in the summer? I can hold a...

I'm sure they were fighting for a bunch of ungrateful snowflakes then too eh? You dove deep for that one.

What a **** show. Fired for projecting an opinion that at least half the population agrees with. I stand with him %100 and believe what he said was absolutely correct.

I got mine from a friend who was moving and couldn't take it at the time. But they can be bought from those chinese ripoff scooter/atv/pocketbike places you see in the city for a few hundred bucks brand new.

Get yourself a little 50cc dirt bike to learn on and you'll be holding balance point in just a few sessions. It's all about getting comfortable with feathering your rear brake and being smooth with your throttle hand. I have a chinese crf50 clone that I practice on constantly, I can hold a...

I wouldn't ride in that bit unless your absolutely certain there's no one in the parked vehicles, getting doored sucks. But as everyone else said, not legal (yet....)

I went down in a mesh Alpinestars jacket at about 60 and my forearm had some friction burn but didn't even get close to tearing through. Still wear that jacket, love it

I like the old string ones. I hollowed out a spot in my seat to fit strings and t-handle reamer/inserter. Ran one on my CBR for over 10000k, have 2 in my front car tire right now!

That was very close to my plan, a basic square steel frame and princess auto axle with some sort of storage box I could attach for gear, or remove and bolt a chock on for the minibike. Is it worth putting leaf springs on? I would think it would be too light and just bounce around. My loads will...

I'v seen a few guys with what look like DIY trailers riding downtown. Has anyone here made their own? I'm toying with the idea of building something to tow the minibike/camping luggage with my Magna. Obviously safety is a concern, my welds are good and not looking to do this on the cheap. Any...

I would go tonight. Haven't been this year and the weather is oh so fresh. Anyone leaving from the newmarket-ish area?

Pop the bubble, plug with string, head to ctmp, should last all season. :P

I agree, I could chase out first gear wheelies on my little 300 and I thought I was ok, but a few hours on a little chinese crf50 clone I picked up for $50 and I can hold balance point nice and slow in second gear for at least a hundred meters. No 12 bar but diy handbrake setup and welded on...

How reliable is this "source" though? If someone were to start using the lanes now would we still get a ticket? AFAIK if its not posted, doesn't matter what the "new" law is, cop will ticket you for whats posted at that current time. I'm no expert though.

Haha, I like that chart. I wave to everyone except e-bikes, but I'll only wave BACK to a harley. If you see a vintage bronze Magna be sure to post me :)

I did the online practice tests about a hundred times, whizzed through the exam with a perfect score. It really helps! Ride by yourself for a while, like the first 500km, and don't go far from town. Learn to do your own maintenence too! Its easy on a bike.

Interesting. When I bought my CBR new from Markham outdoor power I got it delivered to my home for free in January and didn't have insurance until April. I can't recall when I received the ownership or plate, but I think I paid the dealer a licensing fee. I can't remember how I got my plate...
