    Just watched that movie last weekend. I agree it was a good movie.

    Road Tolls coming to Toronto

    Why is it too late? Because the GTA is not as compact as most other major cities, covering a significant amount of territory, and it now costs something like 1 billion dollars per 1km of subway. And surface transit is no better than driving yourself.

    Looks like Photo Radar is coming back..!

    I'm okay with photo radar in school zones, and construction zones while work is in progress. But if it's a safety issue, they should have clear and obvious signage indicating when photo radar is active. Only the real idiots would continue to blast through the area. I noticed photo radar...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    Given what everyone else is asking for their Sportster's I'd agree that this is a good deal with the mods he's done, but I still find it hard to believe that's the market value for a 9 year old Sportster with nearly 30,000 kms.

    Sleeper Bikes

    Suzuki B-King, Yamaha MT-01? Not much in the looks department, and if you don't know what you're looking at, could easily surprise you.

    Bluetooth for Helmet

    I was one of the reviewers in that gtamotorcycle link. I had some initial problems, but the replacement went well. Since that time, both headsets continue to have problems with the USB connector (3 units out of 3 tried/used now). The USB connector allows too much play which causes the...

    Sharing my underground parking spot with 2 other motorcycles - downtown Toronto

    So the real issue here is that the vehicle owner didn't properly disclose the vehicle location to their insurer, and not an issue with the property owner renting out space. If the vehicle owner had his insurance in order, then no problem, by the sounds of it.

    New Triumph Bobber

    Both beautiful bikes, and I'd love to have either, but I can only afford to have one bike in my garage, and unfortunately neither would be my one and only due to the limitations of the design.

    Sharing my underground parking spot with 2 other motorcycles - downtown Toronto

    Huh, I thought your personal vehicle insurance covered your vehicle regardless of parking location. If my bike is stolen from a dealers' shop, or the shop burns down and destroys my bike, I thought the shop insurance covered their loss, and my bike insurance is still used to cover my vehicle...

    Sport Touring Bikes $5000-$5000 before taxes. CBF1000... 1250 Bandit?

    There are a lot of good options out there. If you stick with a name brand (EK, DID, JT, RK) you should be fine. The OEM replacement I bought for my Suzuki came as a complete kit (sprockets and chain - DID btw), not separate pieces. Follow up replacements I went aftermarket because I wanted to...

    Sport Touring Bikes $5000-$5000 before taxes. CBF1000... 1250 Bandit?

    I've replaced my OEM chain and sprockets with EK, DID, and oem sets. They were all equally good. I suggest replacing the chain and sprockets as a set. Even if the sprockets still look decent, they will be worn down and the new chain won't ride them perfectly, leading to premature chain wear...

    Dealing with personal injury lawyer - nightmare

    Can someone explain how this deductible works, because it doesn't make sense to me, the way it's currently been explained. With insurance, I pay my $500 deductible and my vehicle gets repaired in full whether the repair costs are $100 or $10,000. I don't pay my $500 deductible + the cost of...

    Bought GSXR 750.. First bike - What should I do...

    And maybe consider preemptively replacing it with an aftermarket one, before it fails.

    Is There Any Bike Out There That Can Give You 400+ km's On Tank Of Gas?

    Well, I set a new high water mark with my SV650S last week. Did a 3-day trip with a buddy. Spent almost an entire tank cruising at ~95km/h on secondary roads in 6th gear. Low fuel light didn't come on until 292 kms and ran it to 340 kms before filling with ~15 litres.

    Important News - Toronto's new Road Safety Plan

    That quotation does not indicate that motorcycle use of HOV lanes improved rider safety. It indicates that motorcycle use of HOV lanes did not reduce rider safety or increase HOV lane congestion. Basically, that comment was focused on HOV lane usage, not rider safety. However, despite that...

    Is There Any Bike Out There That Can Give You 400+ km's On Tank Of Gas?

    The most I've ever been able to get in 10 years of riding my '06 SV650S is 308 kms. I did about 60 kms with the low fuel light blinking, then solid. I was starting to get desperate looking for a gas station. 17 liter tank and I put over 16 liters into it. BTW, most FI bikes have the fuel...

    Sv1000 vs tl1000s vs tl1000r vs gsxr 1000

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the OP has a budget that falls well below the C14 or BMW XR level, otherwise he wouldn't have listed 15 year old bikes in the mix. Of the TLS/TLR/SV siblings, I'd go with the SV, as I think there are move aftermarket options available (bar kits...

    STOLEN - 2014 BMW HP4 (from downtown during the day)

    1. Would you sue all of your neighbours and then continue to live next to them? That's effectively what suing the condo board would amount to. 2. The condo board would implement rules about no motorcycles allowed, the majority would be in favour, and you wouldn't have grounds to sue because you...
