    Unmarked Police Vehicles

    Laws also serve political purposes. People complain traffic is going too fast, politicians lower the speed limit to appease the complainers. People still continue to drive at a comfortable pace for the conditions, but now start getting nailed for higher speeding because the politicians ask the...

    Mind the soft pavement where you park. Doesn't take long

    Frozen OJ lid. One in the left pocket of each of my jackets, just in case.

    Does the detailing include pulling the fairings and getting inside with a toothbrush or equivalent devise to get at the dirt in the nooks and crannies?

    + a torque wrench and download the service manual for your bike. That will give you torque specs for all the frame bolts that get replaced with the slider mounts, as well as instructions to remove the fairings. Fairings may seem simple, but if you haven't done it before, there are often hidden...

    Trailering bike home from Quebec.

    3 years ago I bought a wr250x unplated from a guy in Longueuil (suburb of Montreal) and brought it back on an open trailer, then did the safety and had it blue plated here. Never saw anything about this issue when I researched the process and never had a problem with the cops in Quebec. I'm...

    GSXR Elm St - Parking lights on

    Bright daylight, it was only because I was looking at the bike that I noticed them. Front bulbs definitely were not LED. Tail, maybe. I've seen the bike parked there before and never seen the lights left on. Said hi to the owner once, he works in the office next door, so I expect the bike is...

    Black GSXR 750 parked on Elm St this morning. Your ignition has gone past the lock and you've left your parking lights on. Hope you see this before your battery runs down.

    Safe parking downtown?

    There's a signed dedicated motorcycle parking area on the north side of Elm St between Bay & Yonge. They are now able to enforce this (ticket cars parked there), but that's only been approved since December, so the Green Hornets may not have figured that out yet...

    Cops aim to ERASE street racers from Ontario roadways

    https://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/070455 Pretty much anything a creative cop is prepared to write you up for: Standing on your pegs going over a speed bump or pot hole is stunting. So is turning left on a green if the car going through in the opposite direction is distracted and sits at...

    Is it Legal to Chain Your Bike Wherever You park?

    This ^^^, but as soon as you need to park on the boulevard (not the paved travel portion of the roadway), you will be ticketed for that.

    Motorcycle Parking Fee 2015 – Response Coordination Thread

    I've been asleep at the switch on this. Nothing on the April & May agendas. Next meeting is June 12th. Given the improvements passed in December 2017 (post 216), I'm hoping they've given up on the idea of fees for motorcycles. But who knows, maybe if things go all pay by app or plate, it may...

    Stop

    I have no issue with people who look and slow roll the stop when no one is around. Better than those who don't want to stop because they see you coming, want to get out ahead of you, and don't care if you if you have to slow hard.

    Anyone having second thoughts regarding motorcycling in general ?

    Agreed. The older I get, the more I want to do it, and the more bikes I ad to the collection. Also committing more to track, dirt & touring.

    near miss

    Many bus drivers put the signal on and immediately change lanes expecting other drivers to yield. They forget that this law only requires other drivers to yield when pulling out of a bus, and no place else on the road. And they almost always force their way out from a bus bay. I'm guessing...
