If you have to mix with water, make sure you use distilled water......

Yes, actually the police, MTO and insurance data bank are all hooked up where they can get the information right away. The police and MTO will know if you have valid insurance right away and a lot of the police cars are set up with cameras to check for just that.....valid insurance and drivers...

A valid insurance slip has to be pink so if you get it via email, must be printed in colour for it to be valid so my insurance company tells me. At the end of the day, this is redundant as cops will know right away if the vehicle has valid insurance or not. The MTO and police have instant access...

Actually, you can safety the bike without insurance so when you're ready....all you have to do is plate it.

Got back into biking last year and bought a BMW R1150RT, beautiful bike...I think anyway, handling was awesome, brakes were awesome...stopped on a dime. a great all around bike. I loved riding it but than bought a Kawi ZG1000, a pig of a bike...it's a fairly big heavy bike, handling is OK...

Got my M license over 30 years ago when the test was at Keele & 401 with about 20 obstacle courses (it's been awhile so not positive on the number) that you had to go through. Just wondering how it compares to the test that they do today...has anyone ever been tested on both?

WOW, from a simple question to this....that's funny. I think if you have a hitch rated for 2,000 lbs. which most are, you would be more than fine towing a U Haul motorcycle trailer on almost any car. Min. spec for these trailers are 1,000 lbs. It's $15.00 a day and you can reserve it for any day...

There is no book value on bikes and you can register whatever amount that you want from 1 cent to 1 million and you will be charged accordingly for tax. Having said that, on cars, there is and got screwed by them a couple of years ago... paid 10 grand for a car which was the real purchase price...

Yes, in York Region.....it's called an early resolution meeting where you get to sit with a JP in an informal meeting. They will try to work out a deal with you on a lower charge so it doesn't go to trial. It's a very costly and time consuming process.......

A must try scotch at a decent price point is "The Singleton" single malt. Not available at all LBCO stores but if you find it, give it a try. At $55.00 a bottle…you will not be disappointed!!

Hey RIceburner, I think Coseco got back in the bike business. As mentioned, just got back into biking last year and Coseco insured me. Rates were awesome though they raised it a little this year....car rate went down but bike rate went up. Did they raise your rate?

Thanks all and good advise SeaBreez, back in the day, I thought I was invincible but not so much anymore!

If you like the comfort of a sport touring bike, than go for it….insurance is actually not bad for a sport touring bike. I don't think it's so much engine displacement than it is classification of the bike…if you haven't checked, I think you will be surprised..

This is a copy and paste from another site and I think most of us knows this but a little reminder couldn't hurt: Maintenance and the new owner« on: February 03, 2015, 08:30:06 AM » Quote ...and the old owner, too. We're seeing a number of guys who have just purchased their first...

……just getting back into it after over 20 yrs. Yes, it's been awhile now but you never really do forget!!
