Hi Everyone,
I came across this site after deciding it was time to get back to bikes. The cost of fuel up here in the Great White North has everyone wanting to ride. $1.50 + per litre of high test/91 octane…that’s $80 per tank in my thirsty Pontiac GTP.
The site really impressed me so far, keep up the good work!
I’ve done a bit of riding in the past, but after a somewhat bad car accident involving a drunk driver in a 1-ton Ford truck with a snowplow and my little black Mustang, I had to get away from bikes during my recovery. Injuries and finances convinced me that I wouldn’t need a bike license anytime soon. So….here I am…seven years later and eager to start riding again. I’m still bike hunting and stuck on a waiting list in three nearby cities for the local MSF course. I’ve always been a fan of time tested designs like the Ninjas and Nighthawks. Its nice to see a site where pos(t)ers don’t recommend a CBR1000 or a 1600cc cruiser as a great beginner bike, and shorts/t-shirts as proper riding gear.
Thanks to everyone here for the honest reviews and opinions, it’s what made me wanna hang around here.

August 4, 2008 at 12:47 am #9842ShannonGParticipantThat is a very nice clean bike.
August 5, 2008 at 2:45 am #9914MattParticipantMan that is a pretty bike.
