I'm on a CBR650F. The last few times I've been out on the bike, I've noticed a "hissing" sound when the throttle is open that would disappear when the throttle is closed (while coasting, for example). It also seems to appear only after the bike has warmed up (it doesn't do it during the first...

Saw a black, Kawasaki (?) touring bike heading down Bayview Ave. one morning and noticed that along with the stock, solid-lit headlight, they had a pulsating white light (modulator) behind their windshield. I read the forum sticky thread on the laws regarding added lighting and did some other...

Just curious -- has anyone ever used the GPBikes "Contact Us" form and gotten a reply back? I've asked for product info on 3 separate occasions and never received a reply for any of them.

Searched the forums and didn't come across this topic, so sorry if this is a repost. Just read the following from Canada MotoGuide regarding the Ontario Government looking to remove everyone's right to fight a ticket in court...
