Maybe I was misleading. My total insurance bill isn't $500/year... that's just the one bike for now. It's a 125. lol $40/month. Second bike (CBX) was quoted around $50/month. It's old as hell. That might help. The Personal is also pretty cheap. My total for the following is currently...

Silly me thought the most important feature of a motorcycle jacket was that it would actually do what a motorcycle jacket is supposed to do: protect you. Anything else is bonus. Considering even many motorcycle-specific jackets will just disintegrate I wouldn't trust many non-motorcycle...

Mine's around $500/yr and I bought a second last year. Also have 2 cars. All just for me.

I'm trying to find some parts for my 1979 CBX. Some sites list parts for a CBX1000 and some for a CBX1100. As far as I can find via some Googling the CBX, CBX1000, CBX1050, and CBX1100 are actually all the same bike just people sometimes call it different things. Is that correct or am I...

So my bike sat for almost a year. Battery was stone dead when I finally got it back. After a 1.5 hour ride down the 401 at almost 10k the whole way it held a charge at 8.5-9V (checked next day). Checked the electrolyte level and it was low in a few cells so I topped it all up with the...

Features: - super soft leather outer - mesh lining - zippered thigh vents on both legs - reflective piping on lower leg - full length zipper opens both directions on both legs (to put them on/take them off with your boots on) - ratcheting front closure with zippered fly - adjustable stretchy...

I'm considering a one piece suit by Teiz Motorsports. Anyone have any experience? Thoughts? Not sure if the Airshell ( http://www.teizms.com/airshell.html ) or Powershell ( http://www.teizms.com/powershell.html ) is more appropriate. It's been getting pretty hot in the summers so I'm leaning...

Just noticed the other day the "ring nut" on my swing arm pivot bolt fell off somewhere. I have the replacement part but I don't quite understand the procedure for installation from the repair manual. Is it just me or does it say to tighten everything, then loosen everything, then...

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?adId=1275615707 Sidi Vertigo Mega Gore purchased in 2009. Mega means extra wide. Gore means they're Goretex lined (waterproof). Used a few times a year but honestly not many miles on them for their age. Toes have some scuffing and wear from walking...

Drove through a bunch of water on Jane just south of Eglinton. So gross that even after driving to Guelph in the rain it still smells like piss/sewer. Would hate to get that all over me if I were on a bike.

Gotta clean the rust out and reline the tank on my new to me 1980 Honda CBX. Before I start filling this thing with questionable chemicals, am I correct that there are no additional holes in the tank besides the filler cap and petcock? Looks like the vent is in the cap? Got a lining kit...

Despite me sending messages daily my Sent Messages folder contains only messages from 3 weeks ago. Dunno what's up with that.

In the market for a replacement vehicle. Looking at SUVs. Some of them have a side mount tailgate rather than an upward-opening hatch. If you have long items to transport can you drive with the rear tailgate open like you can with a normal hatch? Seems like a lot of weight on the hinge. I...

Bottle says it protects plastic and is safe for visors. Ruined mine. Was able to recover it by just using more and more until all the coating came off. Not sure what that coating was for, though.

Occasionally when I try to visit GTAM I get this page: http://filestore72.info/download.php?id=0e7b53e0 What's up with that?

I've been told I've been running the wrong lug nuts for 2 years now by 2 different mechanics. But when I ask them which ones I need they just say "flatter ones". One day all 5 nuts came loose on one wheel all by themselves and the holes in the rims are starting to look deformed so I better get...

Not a bike but could have the same implications. https://www.guelphtoday.com/local-news/costco-burnouts-end-in-charges-325806?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

TL;DR: What are your suggestions for an AWD/4x4 SUV with a manual transmission? Discuss the pros and cons of each model. Well my Outlander isn't doing it for me lately (mostly shifter feel, lack of power, and I don't trust the transmission since it's on it's 3rd) and I'm considering an upgrade...

Just doing some tidying and found a left side inner fairing, handlebar clamp, some random bolts (at least some probably go with the handlebar clamp), and a pair of swingarm spools. Free to whoever comes to me to get them and takes it all. Shoot me a PM.

Going down St Clair at about 6:45am (still dark). Got in right lane to boot it past a pickup when light turned green. Light turns green and I go past him, pop into second and move into the left lane. Right after I get in the left lane I see something up ahead. Cute little bunny. Had a bit...
