    Where do you guys go for new tires?

    Check Motorcycle Enhancements in Oakville, John usually has a good selection in stock. Good pricing and he installs

    Toronto Designated Motorcycle Parking & Cars with Accessible Parking Permits

    The fine is probably cheaper than the parking

    Kreiga alternatives

    A buddy of mine does a lot of off-roading and he picked up one of these Amazon knock-offs and he loves it. Not sure if this is what you had in mind...

    Armor or no Armor that is the question..

    After riding for over 50 years, I expect a cager to turn left in front of me. I would say that being aware of your surroundings and defensive driving is probably more import than the gear you wear.

    Armor or no Armor that is the question..

    I really don't think it's a conformity thing, nor a costume thing. I think it has a lot to do with your comfort zone. I grew up riding dirt bike in the 70's never wearing a helmet, I wouldn't dream of that now. When I ride a cruiser, I ride at a relaxed pace and don't feel the need to wear all...

    Armor or no Armor that is the question..

    Thinking about my own riding habits, it's kinda of weird, when I'm riding one of my Harley's I'm quite comfortable riding around in a T shirt, jeans and a beanie. When I get on one of my other bikes, I always put on a full face, leather jacket and boots.

    I know some of the European forces have adopted modular helmets, but I believe OPP, Peel, Halton and Metropolitan Toronto all still wear open face. You will notice too that the gauntlet style gloves they wear don't have any protection other than a leather pad.

    ...and not to open up another can of worms, but most police forces don't wear full face helmets...

    No jail time for driver that killed motorcyclist.

    WTF! this is disgusting. Our system is definitely flawed. She killed someone's father. A drunk driving charge would net you a stiffer penalty!!!
