    Action camera on your helmet legal?

    Most people don't seem to know what the Contour camera is. I had it mounted on my helmet for 4 years until it broke - have always been asked what it was (twice by cops). Switched to GoPro but found that it was kind of weird to have it on the helmet so I just mounted it on my bike. I later got a...

    is it worht it getting a 1000cc SS for the street?

    Why does it always seem like they're riding out an earthquake when I see them? Arms-a-jiggling.

    M1 practice? How?

    Did your "friend" happen to live in Keswick? Most of the people riding like tools seem to be around the city, not 1hr North of it. Much lower police presence there too.

    M1 practice? How?

    Hmm, "It's the insured guys that are out riding reckless(ly)"... Seems like you're suggesting non-insured street riders don't ride recklessly - if they were to get lit up, would they run? Would they be running safely...? No one plans on getting into an accident. Good luck to your buddies if...

    Where's my clutch lever?!?!

    They likely wanted to give you a discount on something to make you happy/make the mistake up to you so that you wouldn't tell the public of the mistake made. You know... They browse this forum too... That being said, as others said, everyone makes mistakes - they're human too. I've caught minor...

    pretty cool audio technology for helmet

    Lol, what does the review even mean? Highly recommending a product that you (the reviewer) can't get to work right and is unsure of whether you like it? Sounds credible.

    Dear potheads, Merry Christmas!

    At 0:59 of the video of the interview, they narrated "Years ago"... (Jessica Goldstein's story here). I wouldn't think people would be issued a ban nowadays where 44.5% (of Canadians) or 45% (of Ontarians) have smoked pot as of 2015. That's just my opinion, unless a current day ban from "doing...

    Dear potheads, Merry Christmas!

    They interviewed a person that got banned "Years ago". Curious if there had been a case more recent given the current circumstances. "Years ago", if you used drugs, you're seen as a hardened criminal in the eyes of the law. It does, however suck pretty bad for her. FWIW, I'm not saying this...

    Dear potheads, Merry Christmas!

    Likely won't be turned away from using, but will likely be moved to secondary screening and have your car/things searched. In other words, don't bring anything with you. Pretty much the same with Americans trying to get into Canada with guns. "Because it's legal and they're licensed in the US"...

    But it's 2018 and we have to treat everybody equally.

    Tipping point: If an ambulance attends.

    Because motorcyclists are demonized in the eyes of the public. The scenario that sticks in my mind is an incident that happened a few years ago where a lady ran a stop sign, killed a rider making a turn, and was initially charged with careless driving that was later reduced to "Improper stop at...

    New Riders...Start with a smaller bike!

    Far less Oil/waving threads as well as less of people telling you what/how you should ride - much less criticism. End of 2012 is where it started to go downhill. http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/archives/index.php

    Be careful out there!

    Neck pains... A trunk full of baseballs that went flying in every direction up to 50ft away when they collided. Her description of the incident was "I recalled the truck was reacting strange but the truck was actually trying to avoid the others car hitting him then the VW hit me instead"...

    Be careful out there!

    When I went to check up on him, he was pretty dazed (who wouldn't be after a collision like that), no phone in sight (though it could have flown somewhere). He looked like a dude in his mid to late 40s. I think it's probable that he fell asleep and let Jesus take the wheel.

    M1 practice? How?

    This is one of the biggest flaws in our motorcycle licensing systems. I would guess that less than 10% of people that get their M1 are able to ride anything before getting their M2 due to insurance. This is probably why there are so few people that go through Drive Test to get their license...

    Be careful out there!

    Just remember, the moment you start lashing out, you would be seen as the idiot. I'm sure many of us would like to give the offender a piece of our mind, but it's always best to stay level-headed. Given the number of collisions that occur on a daily basis, unless they're doing nothing but speed...
