Too much salt water outside. Spent just as long riding as cleaning the bike after lol crusty af ?

Me too, rode to work and went for a quickie after. Grey skies and damp ground isn't great but better than nothing! ?

Merry Christmas everyone ??

I waved.. But I was on 16th and didn't see anyone else ?

Lube my chain and fill my tank. Keep on riding ?

Definitely taking the bike out those days to work! ?

Off topic here but @MacDoc is that mad stad screen?

Was nice out today!! Just did a quick hr ish roaming the street of Richmond hill then headed off to work in the car in case the storm kicked in earlier than expected.. Which it didn't.. But better than nothing ?

What is a good but cheap brand? Also I have hand guards so hopefully can fit right over. I see a few on amazon but the opening seems tight to fit over hand guard, unlike the hippo hands but those are like $100+

@timtune I did,. And it might be the cheapest and more effective way since I don't ride too much and not for long distances under the -10c mark. Might not be worth investing $100 in parts and $1-200 in labor. By the time I decide it'll be spring lol

I got my 2016 ninja 300 brand new @ 5k in 2017 july, , used it for 2 years and traded it in for 2k. Felt like I got scammed but I did push the bike a lot and honestly it's like $100/ month which is much cheaper than if I had to insure a car, parking space, etc. And all the smiles that came along...

My ninja 300 can handle highway 4 series fine, but gotta plan the overtake, drop a gear and go for it. Otherwise just ride super defensively. As soon as I'm 2 up though, it's on the scary side. Wot and it ain't going anywhere. Uphill, front wind, 2up, I max out at 130ish lol. Super hard to pass...

Age wise, under 30, cheaper insurance for me, as much as I wanted the 650 wee or sv. Height wise, I went with the x as the f felt cramped. Otherwise, good stepping stone for sure before insurance becomes more budget friendly for the 650 cc stuff.

Thanks for that @moarmoto I only go out for a quick 30min ride during the winter, as long as it's dry on the roads and above -15. Definitely nothing crazy like some others here ? will sleep on it for a few more nights and decide.. ?

Definitely an option! Ya I have deflectors, so just my finger tips get cold after 45+ mins. But really on the fence as I can't install them myself.. So we're talking like 1-2 hr labor? And do I really ride more than an hr during the colder days? Hmmmm

@DoubleJ I will check thanks ? the exhaust is secure on the rear peg, just the vibrations will shake it loose, so the entire thing shifts slightly backwards @Gary no no I'm not doing a coffman, I just checked the size to see what the inner is.

@DoubleJ the pipe came with one but isn't strong enough to bend the inner tube to clamp properly. I messaged coffman as their exhaust slips right on the header and they said it's a 42.5mm diameter. So I am looking for something like this. Haven't made time to call anyone or visit shops, prefer...

@MacDoc my current gloves are kinda bulky so I don't think I'd want liner. Going to gp tomorrow, either keep my current gloves and add grips, or buy some heated gloves. I see this Heated Motorcycle Gloves,7.4V 2200MAH Electric Rechargeable Battery Waterproof Riding Gloves for Men Women, Winter...

Just got back from an hr ish ride. Hands got a bit chilly, mainly just the finger tips.. Debating if I wanna get some heated gloves or heated grips. ?

Does Oxford heated grips heat the entire diameter of the grip, or half? 3/4?
