    "“It’s not the other vehicle you need to worry about.”" - Halton POlice

    The idiots are specifically who this particular message is targeting. Granted, perhaps they could have worded it a bit better, or expanded a bit to give fair warning to drivers as well. In the end, safe riders like yourselves are not the ones contributing to the statistics that lead to these...

    "“It’s not the other vehicle you need to worry about.”" - Halton POlice

    The stats are specifically for Halton Region roads. I'm sure most here know the roads in HH and Milton are frequented by riders, and quite a few riders like to think of them as their personal track. There have been a lot of motorcycle collisions in Halton already this year (many fatal), most...

    ninja 300 headlight removal

    Correct. Literally every panel from the seat forward needs to come off the bike to remove the headlight. Best option is to use a flexible magnetic pick-up tool, like this: http://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/flexible-magnetic-pick-up-tool/A-p8053811e Or a flexible grab tool...

    120 km/h Over The Limit in Richmond Hill

    The existing Police HQ is right there. They're building the new building right next to the old one. There's always Police in the area; the driveways for the water treatment plant and the golf course are frequent radar spots, and they'll sometimes park to take their breaks in the respective...

    June 11/ 16 hwy 407

    Rider identified by OPP: Wonder if it was caused by the massive hump in the left-most lanes just before Pine Valley after the bridge over the humber river.

    Is There Any Bike Out There That Can Give You 400+ km's On Tank Of Gas?

    160lbs I rode until it was on fumes. Go easy on the throttle, stay out of heavy traffic, and you can easily get 400+ out of the 300.

    Moto gymkhana gta

    Hi cool, The Police have been around our practice sessions and have not bothered us. We also held most of our practice sessions last year in the same corporate parking lot (after business hours), and we were never once approached by Police or security. We are a respectful and quiet group...

    insurance hikes 2016 (Toronto Ontario)

    It's not a "fee" so much as it's a discount you receive IF you bundle, just like most other insurance companies do.

    parking lot rider skill

    This is called Moto Gymkhana :) It's a huge sport in Japan (well, relatively speaking) and it's picking up steam in the UK, NZ, Vietnam and other countries as well. Honda Rock the Red is an annual Moto Gymkhana competition here in Toronto and other Canadian cities. If you're interested in...

    Great rate at TD MM

    This is the problem right now. The TD MM website is quoting me $1200, but when I call in to confirm my renewal it's $2400. I did not BS anything on the online quote. I provide them the exact same info over the phone and they can't get the $1200 rate.

    Great rate at TD MM

    Currently paying $2004/yr with TD MM. I turned 25 in December. Online quote says my renewal should have been $1224/yr. My renewal just came in the mail... $2419/yr. 21% increase from previous year. 97% increase from what my renewal was supposed to be.

    Thinking of cancelling your TD/MM/Primmum policy? Want to know your Penalty/Refund?

    Has anyone been able to get on a 12mo payment plan with TD? This 7mo thing is a pain in the *** and a rip-off. From what I can gather, the Ontario Insurance Act requires insurance companies to allow clients to pay in equal monthly installments, but it doesn't specify 12 equal installments from...
