    Saddle Bags/Tank Bags.... Suggestions (Pro's/Con's)?

    I have used all sorts of luggage on my bikes. Saddlebags, I hated them. they sag, uneven. Didn't fit a sportbike tail section very well........ Motopak Tail bag is a great option with around 35litres of storage. But for my old gixxer I used a "Gears- Navigator bag" much like this one sold by...

    Used Triumph Tiger 1050 or new Vstrom 650?

    I have had the opportunity to ride both bikes. Both are very capable machines, but the Tiger wins......... I also ride a z750s. The Tiger does everything your zed will do and more. Both bikes are taller than your zed. But you will love the Tigers power and comfort.

    yamaha fz6r opinion

    My wife had an FZ6r last spring. She moved up to it from a ninja250. I rode it a few times, and I was very impressed with how comfortable and smooth everything was. The acceleration was a perfect step up from a 250, the bike handled great. The FZ6R is my no means a supersport bike. But it is...

    is it worth getting an adventure bike for ontario roads?

    I have been thinking the question for the last year or so. I figure it would be best to have both bikes: A bike for twisty gravel and a bike for curvy paved roads. Or, you can install knobby tires on a V-Strom (ask Shane about them) and have the best of both worlds.

    What should I buy????

    I would have to vote for my bike. If you look around you can find a Kawi z750s for less than 4000$. Sportbike engine, upright seating position. Without the sportbike insurance. I find that it does the best of both worlds just fine. You can tour all day on it, (with a few cheap...

    Gear that offers the best protection

    Use the search function. You will find the answer to your question. Besides how much they cost, there is the safety rating. Dot, Snell etc. All said, if it fits really well, buy the one you and your wallet feel comfortable with. I ride a Shoei RF1000 (medium) Knowing that a Shoei medium...

    What's Your Temperature Cut-Off For Riding?

    5c would probably be my cut-off. But tomorrow morning is supposed to be cold and we are heading out for a ride. As long as the sun is out, it should be ok. Grip heaterz and handguards work great at this time of year. Sent from my BlackBerry 9700 using Tapatalk
