hey lads, haven't posted in a while. hope you guys are having a good summer. weather here hasn't been great, but this weekend is supposed to be nice. i got a new bike this season, a street triple r....

Hey brahs, haven't posted here in a while. My buddy is getting his first bike, and I might even be more excited than he is, so I decided to check out kijiji to find him a nice SV650 to start on. I...

You're on the extreme end, but I admire your saving ability.

and you're totally right about comparing yourself to others - I have plenty of friends who are much better at saving than I am, and...

My caddy displays tire pressure in each wheel. If my tires are cold at 45psi, they'll usually increase by 2-3psi once warmed up. Or, if you wanna get technical about it:

p1/T1 = p2/T2

As for...

Personally, I'd go for the matte black look. Then again, I'd never buy a bike that isn't black, white, or grey. Exception being MAYBE a rare ducati or something. I also tend to dress like that, so I...

I'm sure are there better ways to clean leather, but I'll leave that to the experts. I've never had anything on leather that soap and water couldn't clear up, though.

I am a big proponent,...

I get the torque argument, but are litre bikes geared significantly taller? I've never ridden one, and am too lazy to go on gearingcommander. My duc tops out a little over 200km/h (130ish?), and is...

I went to what I believe was the best university in canada for my engineering specialization. In Canada, it's not such a big deal though because there are several schools that are very good, and not...

Everything I read was speculative at best; the point I was making was that I was extremely incorrect about the assumption that they were 50% or more for protection.

EMTs have trouble working...

o so i'm just a moron then? good to know

edit: did some googling and some say these things are actually more dangerous for your neck.

i thought they were just aerodynamic back protectors,...

Toronto, enormous temperature variations compared to cities moderated by ocean coasts. 10C/50F in the dark on my pre-sunrise and post-sunset work/gym commute in spring and fall. 95F/35C and humid in...

probably gonna be looking for my first set of leathers (jacket + pant combo) soon. i have a textile/mesh jacket now, but i figure if for half the season it's cool enough that i wear the liner under...

I'm fortunate enough that I am actually interested in what I do (mechanical engineering). Seems most of my friends, especially those who went to university with no end goal in mind, have no interest...

I agree wholeheartedly on the confidence part, but maybe the second factor should be qualified as "relative youth" [to you]? A man's dating pool tends to keep on expanding until he is into his...

they're beautiful, and aprilia is slightly more abundant than mv: that is, i've seen literally a handful of aprilias around here. still wouldn't be able to get insured on any litrebike. insurance...

I think I'm gonna get a street triple r anyway just because it's pretty much the only option for a naked bike with near-supersport handling that i can affordably insure. seriously, it's the only...

So I'm one of those guys that watches those awful videos people make after they install an aftermarket their bike. It's my only way of coping during winter.

As far as normal bikes go, the ducati...

if you have no idea whether or not you're injured, how do you expect anyone on a messageboard to be able to tell you, based only on your vague description of how sharp the pain is?

Work out and...

I've had DOMS last 4+ days.

Doesn't matter what the cause is, if you're "super fukkin sore" you should give those muscles a break.

If your soreness doesn't go away, see a doc, and don't do...

After you finish making fun of me, could someone please explain why some of the guys apparently needed the stand so they could take off with the wheel spinning, and others started normally? I'm no...
