Looking for a New Arai Corsair X Planet Red Helmet size Medium. Helmet has been discontinued and am seeing it discounted in the US. Local Ottawa dealers do not have any in stock. Only looking for one on sale. Thanks,

When I moved to the GTA many years ago my wife was involved in 2 Not At Fault accidents in about 6 months (rear ended on QEW and red lighter runner near Square 1). At that time my insurance company said that even though they were declared not at fault they were looking at her policy to see if...

The Trippin on two wheels series. It was aired on TV a few years back but now I think it's only available to buy. http://www.trippinontwowheelstv.com/

Try TD Melloche. I have similar demographics (although not in Brampton) and pay $775 for my 2008 Triumph Daytona. Full coverage including Collision. Key to a good rate at TD is to see if you meet any of their affinity programs. My University has an affinity program with them and it dropped...

Exceptions already exist for Green Vehicles to use HOV lanes with only the driver. Motorcycles are already allowed to use HOV lanes as long as there is a rider and a passenger.

To the OP, hope the repairs work out OK even if there are no charges against the truck driver. Similar thing happened in Ottawa. I was in a parking look walking up to my bike when I saw a car sideswipe another car while backing out of their parking sport. The driver slowed down a little then...

Not enough info for a reply other than to say, Shop Around. To provide a better reply, info such as age, years riding, tickets/convictions, year/model of bike and finally, what was your insurance coverage and quote vs. your renewal coverage and quote.

To all the people drinking the Ontario Koolaid, use one of the on-line quote systems to get a quote on your current ride in another Province (New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are good examples). I moved to Ontario years ago and was so shocked at the Insurance Rates I said screw it and sold my...

The "sin taxes" are already baked into the price of drink and cigarettes (and soon weed) so the users of those products are already funding the system (of course we can't expect the Government to be accountable for how they spend these taxes).

I have 2 issues with this (similar to what others have mentioned). 1) I disagree with a "religious" exemption for this law. Either make the exemption available to everyone or no one. 2) I feel that any exemption should come with an additional requirement for increased insurance coverage...

I had the same issue years ago when I bought my Daytona. I got a quote on the bike (Triumph only made one model of Daytona in 2008. ) from TD. Based on the quote I bought the bike and got the "oh, based on the VIN that's not the bike we quoted on" response. No amount of reasoning with them...

Congrats on the retirement and the "Smart" move to Nova Scotia. I'm just a few years away from retirement and moving back to NS is high on my list of things to consider. Even though I don't live in Brampton (Ottawa) I checked my insurance and it will drop from an already stupid low rate of...
