    Wrecked hard on Tuesday

    I haven’t been on the forum for a while, life gets in the way, you know how it is. Anyway, I’ve been planning a very large road trip for my summer vacation. Was supposed to start in Hamilton, head to Milwaukee for the HD Homecoming festival which is on my birthday weekend. Then to SD to see...

    Niagara region riding group?

    I recently moved to Niagara Falls from Hamilton, and while I do a lot of lone wolf riding, I do enjoy the comradery(and relative safety) of a group sometimes. Anybody know of some riding groups or coffee runs in the Niagara area? I had some Hamilton bike buddies, and I fell out of touch a...

    Rider down in Hamilton

    Just saw this on twitter. Upper James @ Fennel. Bike vs. SUV. No vitals on rider. I'd be speculating, but the position looks like yet another victim of a left turn "I didn't see you". Ride safe guys, and trust no one.

    Carrying a bike with a travel trailer

    I've been thinking of bugout situations a lot lately. And I have a large, well equipped travel trailer, that I would probably want to use in such a situation. Problem is, I have a regular box pickup truck that I don't think would hold my bike without the tailgate down. I also am unsure about...

    Mishap with U-Haul bike trailer

    Had an oopsie tonight. Rented a house with a 2 car garage, so I decided to rent a uhaul trailer and move the bikes there from storage while the weather was favourable. Anyway, R6 moved successfully, strapped according to the instruction sticker on the trailer, so I go back for the Shadow and...

    3 Vehicle combination towing

    So in the next week or so I will be picking up my new Avenger 27DBS travel trailer, and because I didn't want to go the extra expensive mile and get a toy hauler, I have to think about other means of bringing my bike on longer journeys. With a bit of searching around, I found that 3 vehicle...

    Went to see ROM+Vikings

    Girlfriend and I went to ROM today. We haven't been there since we were kids, and they have quite a bit of pretty cool stuff, mind you I probably would have been happier at the science centre or the military museum up in Oshawa(We're actually going to go there for a tank Saturday when they...

    Is it not illegal?

    Sorry if I'm mistaken, but I was under the impression that it's illegal to use public funds for campaigning. If so, why am I seeing so many advertisements about the many (debatably)wonderful things that the current government has done against... sorry, for us? I'm seeing a lot of ads about the...

    Any advancements in cellphone mounts?

    I've been looking for something secure for a while now. At the bike show, I saw alot of booths selling that flimsy looking X thing, but I don't trust it, and these phones are certainly not getting any cheaper. For reference I'm using a Galaxy S8 in an otter defender. Looking for something...

    Gas rage

    Well, guess I better get some good cold weather riding gear. Reports are saying that the recent gas gouge wont be ebbing any time soon. They still lie to us and blame southern refinery shut downs due to the hurricanes. Playing to the fact that much of the population isn't bright enough to...

    New seat help for shadow

    Ok cruiser guys, it's soon time for me to put a new seat on the Phantom. Stock seat as anyone knows is a literal pain in the ***** after a couple hours. So far I've found 4 seats by the usual 2 companies, Corbin and Mustang. Each company has a touring style seat, and a seat that looks closer...

    Shopping for a 17 Phantom

    Does anybody know of a Honda dealer near Hamilton with a 17 Phantom in stock? I know Sturgess doesn't have one around, and when I went into Dewildt today to try and get the one in their showroom, they ignored me. No other customers browsing at all, they weren't busy, just shooting the ****...

    Chinese sena alternatives

    Who has chinese BT intercoms here? Are there any good recommended ones? I'm looking for a sub $100 unit that will have a similar feature list to a sena 20s, easy enough to use, and hopefully that would last more than a season. If money was no object, or if I buy a new ride from a dealer...

    Hi guys, I'm Jay, I'm a welder/inspector from Hamilton, And I bought my first bike yesterday. I am writing the M1 monday and will book my MSF next pay day. I guess I probably made a mistake in doing things in this order, bought a helmet, bought a bike, then worry about everything else. I...
