    2020 Auto Insurnace renewals

    By Ontario law she has to be listed. Anyone in the household with a drivers license (driving or not) has to be listed. It’s on the Ontario automobile application. If she was insured elsewhere they would see it by running her DL and then it would have no affect on your insurance premium. Not...

    Brampton powersports closing

    No one has mentioned this on the forum yet. Thoughts? Some good deals there on new bikes but lots have sold and their website is looking pretty Barron now.

    Good places to buy Yamaha V Star 650 accessories?

    DOT/Snell helmet sticker and M2 exit

    How picky are the examiners about this? I have my M2X soon and was going over my bike/gear/and the route today and noticed that the DOT sticker has peeled off of my helmet. I still have a silver foil layer there but the DOT/Snell part has peeled off. It is a Bell RS-1 with a 2011 date stamp on...
