    How dangerous is riding in the GTA?

    I'm a pretty new rider and I've only driven in the GTA. I don't think it's so bad, but I can't compare otherwise... some tips: - pay close attention at intersections, particularly left turners from oncoming traffic - avoid blindspots like the plague - stick to lane blocking positions as...

    Rev match, clutch wear question

    My Ducati Scrambler manual says to rev match (throttle blip) on downshifts even though it has a slipper clutch. I agree with others, it is easier than a car because the tricky actions are in your hands not feet.

    Gloves - need your recommendation

    Thanks ?? Yeah, I got them at Town Moto. Wish I could find them cheaper locally . I suggest getting one size smaller than normal as they will stretch a little then fit perfectly. ? They are washable too which is pretty cool. Edit: also try to break them in a bit before riding because...

    Gloves - need your recommendation

    I'm really happy with my Lee Parks Deertours, but I'm a street rider. Not that it matters, but I get tons of compliments on them from riders and non-riders alike. There is a track version called DeerSports: http://www.leeparksdesign.com/deersports/

    60 day wait makes no sense (when taking an M1 course)

    I actually just picked up my temporary M2 today after waiting 60 days. (Yay me!) I feel it's just the right amount of time for me to start getting into the more 'advanced stuff', so I have no issues with the current system.

    Need a lift??

    Very cool. I had thought only welted soles could be resoled. Hopefully I can get more years out of my Dainese cafe boots this way.

    2016 - The year of the naked.

    Thanks! It's my own bike and photo. I shot it by the Brickworks the other day. I'm really enjoying it and look forward to riding and finding cool places to take pics of it. ? I looked at a few other nakeds, particularly the Triumph Bonneville and the xsr900 before deciding on the Ducati...

    2016 - The year of the naked.

    As a new rider, a naked just seems friendlier, less intimidating and more sensible compared to the more specialized types to me. Sent from my SM-G925W8 using Tapatalk
