Canadian Biker - March 2010

The March 2010 issue of Canada's favourite motorcycle magazine, Canadian Biker, is now on the newsstands. 2010 marks our 30th year of keeping motorcyclist informed and educated about riding in Canada and around the world. On the cover we feature the new 2010 Kawasaki Z1000. It's what you get when you get back to the basics. Well basics if you call a whole lot of horsepower, a penchant for wheelies and an upright seating position the basics. What it really happens to be is a ground up new build with the spirit of a supersport but the profile of a street standard. For those of us who like the power of a ZX10R but would forego the ergonomics of that bike, the Z1000 might just be the ticket. We also feature a look at middleweight cruisers. So for those of you who might be thinking of something to do a little touring or if you are new to the market and want a cruiser that will get you around without overwhelming you, you will find a few words of wisdom here. And then we are on the road. Three stories. Three destinations. The Maritimes. The Rockies. The Yukon. To round it out are our usual line-up of excellent columnists, a piece of group riding and the possible legal consequences should something go wrong and Robert Smith visits the Barber Vintage Festival in, you guessed it, Vintage Hall. Enjoy.
