    Ruroc Helmets

    And they don't really explain too well on how the shockwave system works. Does the helmet come with pre built in speakers? Or is it similar to those "Domino" systems that put out vibrations of sound throughout the helmet rather than transferring the sound through speakers. My friend bought a...

    Who's still riding? (Fall & Winter 2018 Edition)

    Darn! I have my fingers crossed for this Saturday. Looks like no salt will be laid down....and that's what I am always the most concerned about. Bikes been sitting in underground for the last 3 months (battery on tender inside house) and it's about -2c or so down there. Should I let my bike sit...

    Wind Pressure on Helmet. How to Reduce?

    What type of bike are you riding? I ride a SS and both of my helmets do this, its normal. As Riceburner mentioned, you will build up the neck muscles and over time it will be 2nd nature to stiffen up your neck while looking sideways/checking blind spot. You can also try to keep your chin pointed...

    Ruroc Helmets

    I've been keeping a close eye on these myself. Primarily this helmet Atlas Riot Cobra - Ruroc Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to bite the bullet on a $565 helmet until I physically get my hands on one to look at and try one one. Does anyone here know if local stores are going to be carrying...

    Who's still riding? (Fall & Winter 2018 Edition)

    I may ride to my mechanic this coming Saturday as it's only 6km from my place and it's going to be 2c. Rain and 12c weather on Thursday may help the roads a bit. If the roads are still caked on Saturday I'll re-schedule....may just man up though as it will only take me 8-10mins to get ride it...

    mount go pro triple tree/clip on's

    You're kidding right?...Or people can just relate to the actual topic rather than coming to accusations? Typical forum bs :lmao: So if my buddy gets lucky with a girl after the bar he shouldn't say he scored then? Unless he was breaking the law by doing it? LOL! I'll be sure to never use that...

    mount go pro triple tree/clip on's

    It was not his. It belongs to the company as we paid for all his items for work. Laptop, go pro, cannon camera, external hard drives etc. They were used strictly for work and are the companies belongings, not his. My boss knows I ride and said he thought I could make use of it :) Like I...

    mount go pro triple tree/clip on's

    Hi all! I scored a free Go Pro 4 with 3 batteries and a charger from work. Someone got let go that used it and I called dibs :) Currently use a chin mount go pro on my helmet, but would like to set one up on my triple tree/clip on's to be facing me while riding. I ride a '09 zx6r. Any...

    Throttle Sync While Inspecting Valves?

    Changed the spark plugs and air filter immediately before I tuned my bike back in July. All that needed to be done for the plugs was remove/prop up gas tank, nothing else needed to come off....So fingers crossed thats all that needs to be done for valves. Called around some other shops and they...

    Throttle Sync While Inspecting Valves?

    Forgot to mention I have a 2009 zx6r. I've never had issues starting my bike and I haven't noticed it taking any longer for it to turn over. There are 2 throttle cables. One to open and one to close, which I adjusted in October or so the 2-3mm of play like manual states. The throttle itself is...

    Throttle Sync While Inspecting Valves?

    Hi guys, I am overdue on my valve clearance check so I'm going to get it done before spring. Not sure if the previous owner got the throttle bodies inspected/sync'd. Would you think its a good idea to get this done at the same time as I get my valves inspected? They will already be in that area...

    Are Supersports Over?

    Commuting on a SS

    I will get the throttles looked at when I get my valve clearance service done. Did an oil Motul 7100 oil change day before tune, and Matt changed out my spark plugs and thew in a K&N filter on the spot immediately before he tuned the bike for me! It was definitely night and day difference with...

    Commuting on a SS

    I have engine ice in my bike and got it tuned by Matt at Speedlab Performance last July....followed by new battery, rectifier, and stator in September. The highest I have seen my bike before the fan comes on it 103 degrees. Like you mentioned in an earlier post, there's something about a SS that...

    Commuting on a SS

    I commute to work 3/5 days during riding season from Burlington to Mississauga (80km round trip). I know that 600cc's like to be rev'd high as that's what they were made to do. My question is, with sitting in stop and go traffic (can take up to an hour some days when I decide to be a good boy...

    Are Supersports Over?

    I understand what you mean. Some bikes are just "too upright". I personally love the riding position of a SS, GSXR in particular because the seat seems to be a tad lower to the ground and the rear sets are not raised up to high (unlike my ZX6R). The only part of my body that seems to hurt after...
