    I would likely to highly recommend a book

    Vass Bednar gave a fantastic presentation at our (CanWISP) conference last week in Gatineau and I can't recommend this book enough even though I have some political disagreements with it. It's just impressive. The Big Fix - Denise Hearn & Vass Bednar

    Wow. Shannonville Super Series sold off to RACE Moto

    Here's the press release. I didn't see this coming but I've been told that this will likely be a positive change for grassroots racing in Ontario. https://super-series.ca/2024/11/12/race-moto-ca-acquires-super-series/

    Heads up folks

    This is my friend Paul's bike and it's been for sale by three different people (maybe a scammer crew) since he sold it for $1500 a couple of weeks ago. They put a slip-on, a new dash and what looks to be an aftermarket key on it - possible that it was actually stolen and is being sold by the...

    KTM Super Duke engine oil filters

    I've gone to GPBikes' website, to ktmparts.ca and some random others but can't seem to find just the filters for my Super Duke. GP's site has the filter and screens that look compatible but when I select my bike to test, they say that it's not for that bike. In the states, KTMtwins.com will...

    Covid-19 Statistics of Child Deaths with the disease

    OK, I'll just start a thread for this. Canada is still saying that children down to the age of six months should get Covid-19 vaccines and further boosters. Anyone familiar with the actual scientific data can tell you that this is not only not necessary, since the disease is very unlikely to...

    Cautiously optimistic about new CRTC decision

    https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2023/2023-196.htm In the CRTC’s words: “Based on the record of this proceeding and an analysis of the interventions submitted by parties, the Commission considers that, on balance, the Phase II methodology will be the most appropriate rate-setting approach for...

    New Super Duke 1290R Evo

    This 3rd-generation Super Duke has become a bike to rival all the other super-nakeds and as a bike designed from the ground-up to be a naked bike it exceeds the usability of many of them in my opinion. This could easily be the best street bike on the road and I would not be surprised after...

    NO MC - took the car to the Mix & Match on Friday night

    Shannonville runs a car-centric "mix and match" night, where I can do laps around a road course on the front track and drag event on the rear track. Naturally I did both. Got exactly the kind of results that I was looking for on the strip. Here is a pic of the car at the bar (Iron Duke in...

    Something different.

    Took my Porsche 911 Turbo S to the drag strip at Shannonville Friday night. Against my expectations, I ended up dominating the whole production car group that showed up. At around 9 pm, a guy with a very stripped and prepared fox-body mustang running nitrous and what looked like full slicks -...

    2017 New Model Thread (INTERMOT etc.)

    LOTS of giant ugly exhaust pipes in 2017. Euro4 sucks. New RSV4 / Tuono 1100 http://www.fastbikesmag.com/2016/10/04/2017-aprilia-rsv4-rf-tuono-factory/ New ZX10RR http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/2017-kawasaki-ninja-zx-10rr/ New Ninja 650 (50lb weight reduction!)...

    Claudio Corti at Mosport / CTMP for the CSBK race

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHUfDEULojg Fun video to watch. The only other bike that even began to compete with the insanity of that bike's sound was Trevor Daley's R1. Most of the time, all you could hear was the HSBK bike. Hard to believe that was a nearly stock new-model bike (SST...

    I've done it now - RSV4

    Bought a RSV4 RF to race in 2017. A bike I can trust, sounds good to me. So... anyone here that has prepped one of these bikes before? The bike itself needs nothing except suspension setup. Literally nothing. I'll probably get a slip-on or full exhaust just to lighten it up some more, I...

    FZ 10 coming to Canada

    http://canadamotoguide.com/2016/04/14/yamaha-fz-10-confirmed-for-canada/ No IMU, so back to 2010 TC technology, then. More money and more weight than Tuono 1100R or S1000R but less power. Way to go Yamaha. Beat nobody and out-price everybody except KTM's 1290R. And make it look like a bag...
