Further proof that you don't have to be a genius to make a youtube video.The fact is Sid has the gold and the haters do not.

The link in the original post should show you a shiny new Yamaha adventure bike.Yet another model that we probably won't be allowed to have.
Not necessarily.I've been looking at getting a V-Strom so I can have a reliable,comfortable bike for longer trips riding 2 up.I don't want...
The rematch is on! GO CANADA GO!

Robert,I sent you a PM and an E-mail about the shipping costs but haven't heard back.Did you still need the air box?
I do the bottoms first then top.I don't see any advantage either way since the slides and diaphragms aren't really exposed to any harm until you...
Mine was removed while stripping a parts bike.It was almost the last thing to come out,and even then we had to remove the starter to get it out...
Robert,I've got one if you're still looking.Just pay for shipping and it's yours.

Too true.I'm well geared up,so I'll ride until there's snow/ice on the roads.
It's always good to see another maritimer on the board.Let me know if you need parts,I just bought a 84 650 for parts.
I'm a relatively new rider(had my license just over a year) and I pay just over $300 a year for public liability-$1,000,000 policy.I think that's...
Wow that's some bad luck man.I lived in Calgary for 10 years so I know what the drivers are like there.Good luck getting some money out of the guy.
I had the same problem.Got carried away filling up and the gas instantly ate through 3 coats of clear and made a gooey mess out of my paint.I...

Well due to my bike letting me down on the way to a bike rally I had been looking forward to for months,I've decided I need a newer bike better...

When you you say there's no airbox,does that mean no air filter at all or is there pods?
That's exactly what I felt when I started to try and make sense of it.I would usually try to find a reason like the rider must have have been...
My dad ended up picking it up for me in New Glasgow and took it to his place in Port Hawkesbury.He was going to Sydney anyway so I thought it...

Thanks Fitz.I'm going to go at it this morning and pray it's something simple that I won't need parts for.

I won't be back from Cape Breton til Sun. or Mon. so this weekend isn't good for me.How about next weekend ?
Seems to me we just need to pick a night and pick a place.
Hang in there Bill.We're all behind you buddy.
Guys like that give us all a bad name.I wonder if they realize how close to death they really are doing crap like that.Hopefully when they...
