    GP bikes a honda dealer now ?

    Hmm so does this mean we can get Honda OEM parts from GP now as well? Previously I've been going to the Clarington powerhouse from time to time...

    Idiots in cars Scarbourough Edition

    Wow, most of that video was dumbfounding, but it takes a special kind of stupid to try and run when your car is pinned between parking barriers and cruisers, and multiple cops have guns drawn....

    New Distracted Driving Laws Jan 1 2019?

    Honestly I don't think texting and driving is ever going away...it should, but it won't. This is one of the few reasons I do welcome autonomous cars...let those who would rather play with their phone have the car do the driving. I just hope when that day comes, we are still offered the choice...

    Honda Neo Sports Café Concept Heads to Production As CB650R

    I like it....granted I also like the redesigned CB1000R as well.

    Better make sure that sticker doesn't add any horsepower, lol.

    Winter (Snow) Riding

    If I had a MX and was riding off roads maybe, but not on the street. Even if you adjust for the conditions, tires aren't designed for the temps, too much salt on the roads, plus too many idiots around you going faster than they should with all seasons or summers still on (but it's ok...their...

    Motorcycle parking @ University of Toronto St. George

    There are lots parked near Bancroft and also near Con Hall, but as far as I know all are technically parked illegally, so they could ticket if they ever wanted to.

    Bit of a tangent but any updates on the 507 & 118 loop?

    Helmet Exemption Coming for Sikh Motorcyclists in Ontario

    Interesting I didn't know that actually. I know thinks work like a series of buckets so to speak, where either insurance pays first then OHIP second (or the other way around, can't remember), but I didn't know OHIP didn't cover that part at all. Thanks for this...I knew there was something...

    Reving in lower gear vs lugging in higher gear?

    Maybe this comes from learning to drive on stick and having it all my life, but really just keep the engine at a happy RPM. If you are cruising with little traffic or reason to speed up or slow down, then run in a higher gear that still keeps the engine at a happy RPM. If you need to pass or...

    helmet fit - how tight is too tight?

    It should fit the head snugly as possible without pressure points or pain. For the cheeks, you should be pretty much biting them if you tried to chew, at least when the helmet is new (things break in over road time).

    A comfortable SS?

    Why not more towards the sports/sports touring route, like the CBR650FA, Ninja 650R, Ninja 1000, VFR, SV650, etc? Similar design, but more better ergonomics and much better on insurance compared to SS bikes.

    Helmet Exemption Coming for Sikh Motorcyclists in Ontario

    This. Part of me thinks there should almost be a system in place that by forgoing a helmet, OHIP doesn't cover them for brain/head trauma from a motorcycle accident. Given that likely won't be the case, hopefully insurance ends up charging them extra for this (as in, increase accident benefit...

    Never seen anything like this before... brake failure????

    They can in some instances, if defective or not properly (or improperly) maintained/serviced. I have a friend actually that crashed a number of years back on their GSXR when their front brakes went/failed (backs weren't enough to stop them when a car pulled out). Bike was inspected, and the...

    where are all the riders ?

    I'm essentially a weekend-only rider, and both last year and this year (so far) have not been great. Last year we had to deal with rain pretty much every day of every weekend (at some point), and although this year has been drier, the temperature has been insane (esp for someone who gets heat...

    100kms/per 3 L - anyone have a bike getting this fuel economy or better?

    From my current and past Fuel.ly stats: CBR250RA: 3.5L/100km avg CBR650FA: 4.5L/100km avg Car (2006 Accord V6 coupe): 10.2L/100km avg Best tank on the 250 was 2.9L/100km on the 2.5 years I had it. Granted it spent most of the time close to redline (I wasn't aiming for best fuel economy on it)...

    TIL: solo riders are not allowed in the diamond lanes on the 400-series highways

    Kind of a funny sidenote, but until the games, I always thought DVP/404 was synonymous, when in reality the DVP is technically the section below the 401 junction, and the 404 is the section north of it.

    Northern roads 2018

    Was it the last 3km before HWY 2 (heading south)? I was actually there one day before (May 20th) and it was all new pavement until close to the end where it was the old stuff, but nothing torn up.

    CAA Unveils pay-as-you-go Auto Insurance Program

    Last 2 or so years I've been under 5,000km on the car actually...switched jobs and now that I work downtown I take transit each day for work, and with the bike out in the warmer months it gets used most weekends except for if I need to give someone a lift or pick stuff up (and need the trunk...
