Any shops in York Region (Richmond Hill) to buy oil and air filters? I haven't seen any in the big box stores.

got it...thanks for the suggestions. I'll leave my bike at home until i can ride it downtown. How's taking avenue rd/bathurst back up north or bayview? Hoping to avoid the DVParkingLot coming home.

Does anyone ride to a TTC or GO station and park to take the train/subway? If so, how do you secure your bike for 8+ hours away at work? Still new at this so still not yet comfortable making the hour+ ride to downtown TO in rush hour traffic.

Thank you. No need for a Mech at the moment, bike seems to be fine. Just incase if I need one is all. thanks!

I'd go used too. Also just bot one. Take your time and look around and take a friend. Lucky I had one with me or else I would have bot the first one I saw.

Completed my M1, couse and M2 in 2000 and unfortunatly let it expire. Finally re-did the M1 and course this year, waiting on my 60 to update my licence to M2. Just bot a used 2009 Yahama 250 VStar to practice. Any tips and routes to practice? I'm near yonge/elgin mills. Going North up...

just wondering if you are allowed to park at the finch station parking lot for free?

can you recommend anywhere to go in the states. Heading to Erie, PA end of the Aug.

New to all this and was wondering if there are any recommendations on a beginner bike that are non-sporty, cruiser style. 250cc is fine, planning to get my license to ride to work and back. prob little to no hwy driving. The ones that come to mind is a Honda Rebel and Yamaha V-Star...

I was planning to take the learning curves course since I'm in Richmond Hill and they have a course in markham (honda canada campus) which is just a few minutes from my house. i just sent them an email.

yes I will update but just want to use it for the M2 course and test. I plan to upgrade the helmet when I get the bike. Just want to see if it's still legally usable.

thanks, so i'm assuming it's expired?

Bought a helmet years ago did my M1 and M2 but never got around to getting a bike to practice and do the road test. I'm just wondering, my helmet is a HJC CL-10 Dot Snell M95. Is the helmet expired or can I still legally use it? I don't want to buy another helmet till I re-do my M1 and M2...
