    Chain Maintenance

    I'm wondering if it's time to clean my chain. I've cleaned it 3000km ago, and lubed it about 600km ago. I recently went on a day trip, and do to poor navigational planning, hit a few gravel roads. Google produces various answers as to how often cleaning (specifically) is required. TIA...

    Break Down

    My 2006 Suzuki GZ250 just broke down on me. I was filling up, and when I went to start the bike there was no power. I got a boost, which took a while, and when it was going it was chugging. It quit shortly after down the road (stalled out) and no power to get it going again. I'm...

    Knowing (Used) Motorcycle Pricing

    New to the game here, how does one learn what a bike is really worth? I am confused by the variance in prices on used bikes, and not sure what's good value, what is junk, and what is a rip-off. Is there a blue book for motorbikes? FWIW, I'm looking at FZ6s exclusively. Thanks in advance...

    Cornering - Another Noon Question

    This is my first season, and I wanted to know what the best practice is for taking corners where you cannot see the curvature ahead of you (view blocked by climate for example). Am I to stick to the left tire track all the way through?; Or, Do I use the rest of the lane to take the bend?

    M2 to M Question

    Is the waiting period to do the M2 exit test 22 months from the date you received your M1 or M2? Can you take the M2 exit course and test before the 22 (or 18 with course) months is up, then go to the ministry later and pick up your license officially? ^^ I did this for my M1-M2. Thanks.

    Gear Visibility - Noob Question

    I'm new to riding and researching new gear. I feel visibility is very important. My question is high-viz yellow better than red? Personally, as a driver I find it hard to see road workers, etc wearing high-viz yellow on sunny days, unless their shirts or jackets are outlined by a darker...

    Dual Sport as First Bike

    I am new to the sport and this forum. I did the M2 course and now I'm looking for my first bike. The instructors said I would do best on a "standard" bike. On my hunt for beginner bikes, I have come across Suzuki GZ250, Yamaha Vstar 250, and Honda Rebel. These unfortunately are more of a...
