    Alberta to allow turban-wearing Sikhs right to ride motorcycles without helmets

    Let's all be whatever we want to be and do whatever we want to do. It will work out great!

    Anyone interested in a new CanAm Spyder?

    My point was - why even bother with the Alltrack at all? (Unless you specifically like the slight difference in styling) If they beefed it up more and made it like the previous gen Outback, then I would consider it myself. But the way it is, not enough of a difference from SportWagen...

    Anyone interested in a new CanAm Spyder?

    Yes. You do know that Bombardier family still owns a substantial part of BRP? Plus I am not talking about my personal feelings but the general vibe on GTAM.

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    You absolutely will. Just have to sit on kijiji all the time. I bought a 2007 GSX-R 750 for $4,000 for example and sold for the same. A 2003 600cc Japanese SS is worth exactly what Caboose wrote.

    Island hopping in Ontario

    If you are in the area, try it. But I wouldn't make this my destination. It's a 10km road that's not really twisty. As for camping, no squirrels and raccoons? It's not the same without those bastards.

    Inspection for motorcycle insurance

    OP - Don't volunteer any information to the vultures in the future (insurance companies, government, etc.). This is not a significant modification and doesn't alter the performance of your vehicle. Not like you stretched it extra 2 feet and installed a car tire on the rear. Slip ons are...

    Double the mileage = half the price?

    Market dictates the value guys. And our market is very sensitive towards a perceived high mileage motorcycle. Generally, anything over 40K is difficult to sell. When you are over 50K it becomes near impossible to get any real money. Of course there are exceptions. A bike with 30K km will...

    Anyone interested in a new CanAm Spyder?

    Members of this forum are largely against purchasing Bombardier products as I've found out in a recent poll. Largely because of the shameful way the company is managed and funded, not because they feel that the time has not come yet for them to switch to trikes. As for the Alltrack - why...

    Not at all. Insurance companies have their own zone maps. Premiums can vary greatly based on your postal code, even within same city.

    How does kms per year and bike value effect insurance rate?

    I don't even know why insurance companies ask how much you paid for a bike. On every single motorcycle I owned, they had their own estimates. When it comes to pay outs, they also use their own algorithms. The figure you paid seems to be irrelevant.

    Anybody own a Kawasaki Z750S ??

    Sorry, don't buy that. Contact patch is tiny and even assuming there's a consistent slant on all Ontario roads, we'd be talking about a microscopic difference.

    That is true. They are always missing something. Same thing with the FZR400.

    ...are being asked to stay away from terms like Mr., Mrs., father and mother

    Canada is becoming the opposite of democracy. Extremist minority dictating how majority should live.

    Solo touring

    Yeah, I can see that working for a duo. My long distance group rides are generally 6-8 size though so too much of stretch between 1 and 8 to try that kind of a thing. I think I need a newer GPS too, that would probably relax and soothe me even more than not leading. Missed a few roads...

    Sitting for 25 years? May need several times more than asking price. Hoses, brakes, tires, wires, etc.

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    Yup, I sold my ‘07 for $4,000 and many people ask for more. It’s abnormal to be selling a ‘14 for 5K.

    Solo touring

    I don't mind leading at all and I often do but it does burn me out eventually, after 3-4 days. On a longer group ride I usually need a back up leader in order to relax and rest. Also, when you lead you get to do all the road killing ... (which is not my favorite thing exactly) Following a...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    Believe it is made in India. You save $350 plus freight and whatever other fees the dealer charges. Then again, they could have discounts and you can of course negotiate on the price and fees. The negative side to this particular bike is that it's already lowered and most people don't...
