    What's the weakest link in stopping you from riding longer?

    I don’t enjoy Ontario scenery anymore. I’m sure there are half decent roads. I’d rather save for bigger trips. However I do need more longer days on bike to ease into 1000+km multi days.

    What's the weakest link in stopping you from riding longer?

    Also more roads, and higher speed limits (out west). I don’t dislike riding in Canada, just Ontario isn’t eye catching for me anymore. And gas stations open past 8pm! which is extremely important for non morning birds like myself.

    Can a Yamaha FZ6R be made fast?

    I had 2012 Fz6, put almost 175K on it. Loved that bike. Now on the FZ1 and I find it much faster. They are not SS bikes. If you want fast, have to make the switch.

    What's the weakest link in stopping you from riding longer?

    Not wanting to ride in Ontario. Having budget for multi day trips, I don’t camp, and everything gone up in price. I’m still resetting my bike from purchase last October. Currently the windshield isn’t working out, and still contemplating right sized Givi side bags.

    Auto shop feedback

    Except that I don’t particularly want those individuals to know my personal information. If going through a lawyer can at least give law firm name and address.

    Auto shop feedback

    Yes it’s appears straightaway enough to just get the money from Insurance, but at the end of the day, it could’ve resulted in a very horrible situation, and they are getting away from any responsibility. Like if we buy food that makes us sick, we can complain to government to get it...

    The smartest thing would’ve been never set a foot there. When they told me I didn’t bring the bolts, but they nearly chucked them out instead. I don’t trust them to install new breaks. I still have all the damaged parts though.

    Auto shop feedback

    I went back there but one of them is very argumentative and said he needs to see the car, (at that time it was at my regular shop with one wheel off), and every paying the bill conversation led to them fixing or servicing it in some way. I don’t know any lawyers, perhaps serving them civil...

    Auto shop feedback

    Unfortunately I did first claim with echelon for the bike in august (it was run down by a trailer truck) and they were much straightforward about things.

    Auto shop feedback

    I was told from someone on the inside it wouldn’t be horrible as insurance would pursue the other insurance for the damages, and I wouldn’t have to pay the deductible. But cooperators decided it’s not worth their time, and risky as the other shop would say I needed to come back for retorque. It...

    They wanted to fix it themselves. Yeah right, it’s not happening.

    Auto shop feedback

    Im with cooperators, though not too impressed with how they are moving about this. The claim is not at fault, single vehicle accident. Just boggles my mind the shop did something so dangerously careless and they get nothing. Except I have to pay $500, after being car free for few days, and my...

    Auto shop feedback

    Right before Christmas, I took my car to a nearby recommended auto shop to change winter tires. The very next day one tire almost comes off on DVP. It was hanging in by 1 bolt and jammed breaks. Today my insurance informed me they will cover the damages but they won’t go after the tire shop...

    Buying a motorcycle in Quebec but live in Ontario.

    You guys got lucky. I did go through this before; bought bike in BC. Had to send a mini novel to BC government to get tax refund. They also wanted extra $1200 to plate it with ICBC (while at dealership), we settled for a temporary plate $20/day. My bike was new though so I didn’t have to...
