    Safety cert in Newmarket/Aurora - Where?

    I just got my (new to me) bike today and need to get it on the road ASAP. First thing I need is a good place to get it safetied. Can anyone recommend somewhere in the Newmarket/Aurora area?

    Also if there's any newish riders or riders that don't mind riding with a newish rider, let me know!

    Have you tried Suzuki of Newmarket? Squidex?
    Motorcycle City in Richmond Hill?

    Thanks. I've read too many bad things about Suzuki of Newmarket so I wanted to stay away. Wasn't aware of Squidex so I will check them out.

    Take it to Canadian Tire, easy enough. I did mine there, no drama no problems. I took my bike there at 9:05 and 9:10 it was certified...no joke!

    You're taking your bike to get safetied not maintained so the only down side is really if they decide not to serve you.

    it was ~ 90 dollars, if thre was an issue I had 15 days to bring it back with the issues fixed and they would sign off on the cert. But I think this is the same at all places.

    Ah, I think I'll just stick with Ted's house call safety certs for $80 then. For me, he came up to Bathurst & Elgin Mills area (Richmond Hill) from doing another safety in Mississauga (from what I remember). I don't think Newmarket is too much farther of a travel.

    More good info. Thanks guys, I'll let you know what happens.

    UPDATE Got my bike certified at Canadian Tire in Aurora. The people there were pleasant enough and the service was quick.
