Thisride is for advanced riders who are highly experienced sport riders thatwelcome a “quicker schedule”. Not the kind of ride for SV650’s or smallerbikes. Meet Saturday May 26th at MarkhamStation Restaurant in Scarborough (corner of Markham rd and Sheppard). Theyserve 24 hour breakfast if you...

Wiring a relay into a circuit that is blowing a 10amp fuse may be a really bad idea, not only because the wiring may not bear that amount of current but because the question of how much amperage is flowing through that circuit and will it cause damage to the charging system? I'd be worried about...

I didn't see one cop all weekend. I was up and down the 404 in the car Sat nite and monday. Out on the bike on Saturday nothing. 401 to 403 to Guelph line, Halton Hills over to Dundas and Ancaster, back roads out to Niagara Falls. back on QEW from Hamilton, 403,401, Nothing. The only one I saw...

Good ride. Found a few more twisty bits over by Dundas and Ancaster area but not sure how to get out of there without a trip through downtown, not sure if it's worth heading over that way on rides. I'll have to get lost over there a few more times to put together something worth while or get on...

Leaving restaurant early. If you're showing up I'll see you at the ice house for 11am.

Jennifer at I+M Leathers is continuing her dad Ivan's tradition since his passing this spring. They've been making leathers in their shop for almost 40 years. They've outfitted champions like Szoke and racers like Kevin Graham, John Parker and a number of americans too. They've made me 2 suits...

Keep in mind that most pure sportbikes don't make an abundance of amperage and they're only designed to barely keep a charge on the battery so it's best to have the fewest connectors (minimizing the risk of corrosion or voltage drops due to poor plugs) and draws on their battery. A relay is a...

You make a lot more money with bike racing than you do with your looks! Soyou're saying i should roadrace? I say i can't because i would have to upgrade my bike witha supercharger due to my lack of power with my gsxr1000. If i did this there wouldn't be a class for me to race in anyways. If...

You said "CBSA have to treat everyone the same amount of scrutiny, are you suggesting that brown people with turbans (long-beard) and pajamas should be treated differently than white folks strolling across the border everyday? what's the point of having border guards or a border at all? might...

If the border guards catch a terrorist in a zero hour, good for them. It'd probably be the first time in about 25 years that I heard of them doing that since an IRA got caught back in the 80's in Niagara. In the mean-time they can show a bit of respect and maybe a bit of class during their...

Yes, I remember outgrowing my bikes but for different reasons. Back in the 80's my 900 Ninjas would cavitate their oil pumps during wheelies and destroy their cranks so I outgrew that design flaw. Then I owned GSXR1100's for 10 years which seemed a little slow after a short time having to live...

I'd like to get out for some of these but it won't be this weekend. Be sure to post your rides and I'll join you. What time and where do you usually meet?

You've got a good point. It seems funny to me that when a cop catches you speeding, they have to say that "they saw a vehicle exceeding the speed limit in their estimation and they then checked the vehicle speed with radar to confirm"......goes right along with their "expert ability" to...

It's one thing if it's a well cabureted bike that has decent power delivery but the CBR900's carburetion wasn't well matched to it's head/engine. Your trip won't pose any big issues but whatever flat spots in power delivery will be somewhat magnified. This effect could range from a small stumble...

They should invent a new charge and call it "Passive Driving" or "DWOB" (driving without brain). This would be for drivers who pull stupid moves like merging onto the 401 doing 50 km/h and similar dumb moves.

You know, it's one thing if the police do actual prevention and focus their efforts on things that would improve conditions on the highways by ticketing the drivers that create hazards by towing unsecured loads, driving slow in the fast lane and cutting people off. But most times our experiences...

.......to quote a recent post in another thread:......Fantino, is that you?!

I've always thought this too! haha! Sadly though, what I am beginning to think now is that it's one more thing that we are being conditioned to accept as normal police behaviour. I believe that neither the OPP nor any other Police Dept. should announce that they are targeting any segment of...

.......ya, he was there, ON FIRE!...he's the guy who went over the falls in the barrel, lucky for him because the mist from the Falls put out the fire. He's just got the worst luck.
