The Honda is probably the best all around bike. Now if only Honda would smarten up and give a modern treatment to the XR650 I might actually think about getting one.

I always use premium, I don't think i've ever used regular tbh. Maybe the extra couple bucks is for the mind ;)

+ 1 on the FZ1. I had one for a couple years and loved it.

It's an aluminum wheel. I think the rim was bent and the previous owner tried to cover it up with a wheel weight. That's what it looks like. I'm at the shop now and searching for a used rim. Update: I had them put in a tube, it's not ideal but we had no luck finding a used rim and I don't...

I had a new tire put on about a month ago an it will not hold the psi rated amount (42). I checked the gauge on the stand before heading out for a ride (first in a week) and it was low (25psi), i thought that was odd but i fired up the pig and put the rated 42 in. 20 minutes of riding goes by...

I could have sworn I read something online about Toronto police shooting a guy on a city bus. Maybe my memory isn't as good as it use to be.

Didn't Toronto have a shooting on a city bus recently? I much rather die on a motorcycle then get shot on a bus. But that's just me :D

Thanks for the links y'all. :D @macdoc Love that site! It's exactly what I was looking for.

I just moved to Ontario and was wondering if you guys had any riding route maps. Sorta like ski resorts have recommended routes for a mountain. Beginner and experienced routes etc. Thanks in advance!

Maybe I live under a rock but I've never even heard of the XB9 :D It's definitely got its own style. I like it.

@Neil_V When you say "up to 6 months in jail" what are the deciding factors in determining that?

I have never lived downtown Toronto (just moved to Ontario) but my vote would go towards the CB500x. Seems like a perfect city run about. Plus the savings on insurance over a supersport would be substantial.

I guess growing up as an islander I've always wondered what life was like in other places. My sister moved here in the mid 90's "with a guy she met from Ontario" and even tho she claims to miss "home" she never did move back when given the choice. If nothing else it's an experience for myself...

Hey y'all. I recently joined the main land and have put roots down in Ontario now. Friend of mine pointed me towards GTAM so here I am! Seems like a pretty lively forum so I'm happy to be part of it. Thanks
