    buying a motorcycle at a show

    Was wondering if anyone here has ever bought a USED motorcycle at one of the winter bike shows, and which show is the best for those kind of purchases. I'm going to assume that a test ride is impossible? Is it too risky, or does the possible savings offset that risk? Would I be buying a bike...

    Suomy helmets

    Time for a new helmet and I've always used either Joe Rocket or AGV. I'm a size S and have been satisfied with both and have worn for 12 hr days. Both were around the 200 dollar range so I guess could be called a mid range helmet. I've never had what could be called a premium helmet but I see...

    Do you look at your collection and wonder if you are wasting money? they have to be insured and maintained and what if you find you only ride one of them a handful of times, but can't bring yourself to part with it? Is it nuts to have more than 2?

    Think it's worth it?

    I know ideally taking a few pairs of proper shirts etc would be better, but they can be pretty pricy. So, was wondering if any of you who for for 3-4 day trips have gone to a thrift store and bought several 2 dollar tee shirts to take, then just tossed them at the end of a sweaty day of riding...

    Nova Scotia or Maine?

    Looking to take a solo trip for about 5 - 6 days. I really want to see the Cabot Trail but I don't think I can do it in the time I have. Have any of you travelled to coastal Maine? I'm assuming that the scenery is going to be very similar and it's more doable in the time I have. If I ride to...

    I picked up an dual-purpose bike and have a MX style helmet from back in the day. Apart from being of that time period when manufacturers thought neon pink was a cool colour to splash onto bikes and helmets, the helmet is in excellent condition. Its made by FOX and is DOT and Snell. I look...
