    From Niagara? Sells RZ parts on Ebay and Kijiji? He wasn't an OMVIC dealer, he was using his repair shop to sell bikes and he didn't go to jail for curbsiding... he got fined up the yingyang for selling bikes out of his repair shop... TWICE, he went to jail for not paying the fines after being...

    Heads up folks

    OK... lets try this: What would I, selling a bike privately, do to "curbside". What makes a private sale a "curbside" sale as opposed to a private sale? Private sales are buyer beware, you have no protections... so how is a "curbside" private sale different from a not "curbside" private sale...

    I have bought and sold vehicles, you have bought and sold vehicles (I assume, we're on a motorcycle site talking about our motorcycles)... are we dealers? By your broad definition: YES I dispute that

    For DEALERS. OMVIC or the Ontario Motor Vehicle Dealers Act have no power over me... or you... or this guy, we're not dealers (I'M NOT, I doubt YOU are... THIS GUY??? who knows) "curbsiding" in the context of those laws are dealers advertising or representing their cars as private sales.

    NASCAR at Talladega

    Pickup Trucks

    Not anymore. The under 4500kg trucks (half tons) are basically passenger cars now, which is why even the cheap ones aren't cheap anymore. The four door trucks have to pass the same intrusion test as a passenger car, and a pick up will SHINE in a frontal crash test (there's a lot of stuff up...

    Overbearing electronics

    I don't know about "over bearing"... but Buddy has a Challenger, and something went wrong with the radio... and because the radio (entertainment center) is tied to the security system, the ONLY solution is a $3600 Mopar radio (he also told me that replacing a rear wheel speed sensor made the...

    Dougie's latest plan

    Most of Ontario speed limits were assigned in the '70s and '80s, when a shoulder belt was the height of driver safety equipment and we were panicking over oil embargoes Safety equipment and car design has got so much safer since then... what does "where it safe to do so" mean? Any road that was...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    I had a '88 Transalp, I was un-impressed... under powered and pedestrian. I think the major part of that "un-impressed" is I was getting off a fully done XR600 onto the Transalp. I have found new love in that motor in the RC31, but the last time I built a RC31 motor, I had to use a Transalp...

    Who practices their low speed skills?

    My brother used to manage the Toronto "Blue Helmets"... and I used to go down and watch them practice. YEAH they drop their bikes, a LOT. They have a "move" where they rush up to the line, slam on the brakes, without putting a foot down, slam the kickstand down, then fall over onto the kick...
