    Cost for first service

    Don't think so but the mechanic can tell by the way everything is seating (in the valves, clutch, etc ) whether she's been "rode hard and put away wet" though.

    Well he's done it again!!

    I've got the Oxford sportbike specific ones. (Thinner and more comfortable than your typical ol cruiser ones) They are great, just plug and play. 1/2 hour work tops! and our bike is set up perfectly to feed the wires. Have a temp gage and a censor that can tell if there is too much juice...

    Well he's done it again!!

    I'm in Canada, 6 degrees celcius here today (insert brrrrrrrr smiley here) and I've stopped riding in anything less than 10, kinda wreaks havoc on the tedonitus I have in my forarms wrists and hands (There have been times when I didn't think I could pull the clutch lever in enough to get her...

    What Not To Wear (while riding)

    My neighbour stuck his five year old on the bike (in front of him) with a hockey helmet on last year. Bad enough for an adult not to have propper gear but a child, com'on DUDE what did you not want kids or what? Also a close relative on hubby's side was on the back of her better halfs bike...

    An extra caution!

    I drive an SUV and I always give a bike the right of way - out of courtesy. I have also blocked bikes from being struck by other cagers with my SUV in the past as well. Most noobs are Cruiser riders here and are scary to ride with. Most are OGs in their late 50s 60s that have just...

    Hot weather gear
