    I need to make my '78 CB550 legal - chain guard, horn

    Hey there, I need a few odds and ends to make my CB550 legal for my road test. Does anyone have a chain guard and a horn kicking around for sale or to borrow? I'm between Owen Sound and Guelph, Ontario. I haven't been on the board for a while...but I'm sure there are folks on here to...

    '78 CB550k Motion Pro throttle cables - WTF/sanity check

    I ordered a set of push/pull cables for my 1978 Honda CB550k from a reputable shop that caters to the vintage UJM world. The part numbers are 02-0007 for the pull and 02-0008 for the push. When trying to install the pull, the inner cable appears to be at least 3cm too short. I can easily slip...

    Boot Split

    I talked with Chippewa. They said to bring the boots to a local shop that sells their boots (Boot Master on Yonge). They'll work with the store to get me a new pair....even though I didn't even buy the boots there. So far it sounds good. We'll see how it all works out.

    Boot Split

    I have a pair of get-a-grip blundstone-type boots. They're great and were only $40. I wish I could get another pair.

    Boot Split

    I have the rubber on the shift. It's just these boots. Chippewa said to send them back to the store for an exchange/refund...but it's an online store and the post office is on strike. Ughhghghghggghh. Thanks for the sanity check. At least I know that I'm not just riding like a moron.

    Boot Split

    I grabbed a new pair of Chippewa engineer boots (model 27899). They're steel toe and marketed as bike boots. I've been riding with them for a week now but the left toe is started to split. When I shift gears, the shifter makes contact with my foots just below the steel toe. The downward...

    Let's see your riding boots

    Amazing. I have a pair of 6" moc toes that I love...although I don't ride in them. The Beckmans are super nice. Are they just like Gentleman Travelers? I'm on my way out to buy a new pair of 11" Chippewa steel toe engineer boots. Wish me luck!

    Vintage Leather Jacket D-pocket Champ - Price drop

    I'm selling off one of my leather jackets. This is a vintage Harley Champ-style jacket. It has had a liner replacement and whoever did it didn't preserve the inside tag - so I have no idea who made it. It has a beefy Talon zipper on the front. All zippers work. The D-pocket zipper zips...

    Steel Toe or not to Steel Toe?

    Well, my bike is my daily driver for everything I do. Whether it be going to work at my office or bootin' around town (Toronto). I can't ride into work wearing a neon full piece leather suit with space boots. That's more of a weekend thing ;) The Red Wing's were made as motorcycle boots...

    Steel Toe or not to Steel Toe?

    I'm shopping around for a new pair of riding boots. I've been leaning towards a pair of Chippewa or Red Wing engineer boots. There are some pairs for a good price on the ol' eBay...but they're steel toe. I've never had steel toe boots for riding and I'm not too sure if I would want to. I...
