Hey guys, I came across this new bike garage where you can do your own wrenching, attend workshops, etc. Does anyone have experience with this place? Anyone has a membership there?

Good conversation guys, keep it going. Lots of good feedback. I personally don't have much experience in the hospitality industry, besides a few part time jobs in high school. I work in IT, PM :) If I was gonna do this, I would probably partner up with someone that has experience in the...

This is great feedback, thanks guys. I guess I'm just day dreaming about a place like this. Most likely not a very good viable business. I love bikes and I wish there was a place where I could go and hang out once in a while and talk about bikes, trips, racing, etc. In Europe, in places like...

Hey guys, I've been thinking about this for a while now, as we don't seem to have anything quite like it in the GTA. I'm looking to open a biker oriented/friendly cafe place (liquor licensed as well) similar to the Ace Cafe in London, England. A place for motorcycle fans to get together, talk...

No Africa Twin at the Honda Demo ride Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

If this guy will wanna drive/ride when he gets out, he'll do it, somewhere on this planet. He's got the money to do whatever he pleases. Let's not kid ourselves here.

Once again a classic example of "the law" being applied preferentially for the those in upper financial brackets. This guy will be out in about 2-3 years going about his business (not driving in Canada, but free to go anywhere he pleases). I doubt a regular Joe with this guy's priors would be...

Looks like I'm getting a new bike next year :) https://youtu.be/xMHdF5M6SZ0

Mind blowing study released in Canada. How in the hell can people get funded for retarded studies like this one? "These findings are the result of more than 20 studies that focused on health and behaviour among children involved in different types of risky play." More than 20 studies they...

$500 is a lot of money. I wouldn't keep the whole deposit, but maybe 100-200. Put yourself in the other person's shoes before making a decision.

This guy needs sure needs some riding/cornering lessons. Also, he could've easily saved it, if he didn't panic so ****ing bad. Just go straight and rear break. I started on a 600 f4i 10 years ago(too much bike for me at the time) and laid it down at the Forks trying to keep up with some more...

Hey guys I'm interested in some Ganaraska GPS trail routes with varied single and double track. Anyone have or know or I can find it? Thanks!

Never gonna happen. Period. Close the thread.

I went on the Park to Park trail last year and I'm not sure it would be doable on a Strom, mainly because of the rocks and deep water crossings.

I wonder who's in charge of making new product decisions at Honda. Why would you put so much effort to build this turd of a bike? What's the market for it? Baby boomers? I just don't get it. Bring this bike in the showrooms, not that hideous thing:

That video is from Romania, where the number of traffic accidents(lots of them fatal) is very high, because of what you've just seen. Something similar happened to me a few years ago while driving there. Horses get spooked easily for no apparent reason.

Maybe, but still too many mechanical issues to deal with. I'd like to do more riding and less fixing, even if I have to compromise on performance.

I was looking at the 690 and they're awesome bikes, but they're very expensive, even used somewhere around 8-9k and i've read about a lot of issues with stalling, leaking, super hot pipe, etc on advrider.

Thanks for the advice. I'll probably go with the DRZ as I'm planning to use it for street a lot with the occasional dirt road outings. Hopefully soon after get a 400/450 KTM EXC just for trails and trailer it when heading out.

How much maintenance are we talking about, what about reliability? I've heard things...would appreciate some truth from an actual owner.
