Given those options, I would go with rent a bike, practice and take the MTO test. This way you can buy a bike and get insurance as an M2. Getting insurance as an M1 is a pain, even the brokers that will insure an M1 usually won't do so without proof of a safety course booked. If the bike...

I've had a dashcam for a couple weeks now, and although I'm normally against being a busybody this guy deserves it. Nothing like making a right and seeing this clown going the wrong way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiRwasVOyLs

To me the picture of the odometer shows 7670.3 miles, or 12344KM. This is a common mistake I see on Kijiji where people don't know the last digit is a 1/10 fraction, but you'd think a dealer would know better.

It looks like he was arrested while in Michigan and is being held on the U.S. side.

You can register at any point, however without a safety it'll be registered as "unfit" and if also without insurance "unplated". Not good if you want to ride it to the shop.

Maybe in the middle lane, but whoever recorded that from the left got to their destination maybe 30 seconds later then life endangering weave-and-brake. Most of the time I see weavers they never get anyplace faster, almost like the dumbies that race to the next red light. Hey got to have your...

Provided the story is true I would guess he put $4K down and then: A. Realized he couldn't make the payments B. Can't find or afford insurance C. Got told off by his old lady D. All the above

Went today, found a pair of gloves that actually fit my skeleton fingers. Only saw two knife guys, but yeah a lot of leather and gear, not much for footwear though which I was hoping to get. Way too many insurance brokers and "ride for X"/"ride against X" in place of what I feel should be bike...

But dude, it's a cafe racer.

Bank loan? Read this: http://www.clarity.net/adam/buying-bike.html If you can't or don't feel comfortable going for a test ride, ask the current owner for a demonstration. Oh yeah and always check the ownership and get the VIN and UVIP if possible before visiting. ASAIK minimum...

Yes, I don't understand this compulsion to buy new especially as a beginner. The potential to destroy your wallet/credit is way too high, unless you're made of money but seeing as how you're limited by insurance costs I would guess not. Bikes aren't like cars, they're only used outside of...

OK, but what are those potential bikes? Why does a "beginner" cruiser start at 650cc? What's wrong with a 500cc Vulcan or Shadow? Maybe an older 450 Nighthawk? If you have to go really low on insurance there's the V-Star/Virago 250 or Honda Rebel.

Well at least you're past the 25 mark. So what engine size are you looking at?

30 in a few weeks. Might have been cheaper if I'd waited, but I don't want to haul it in for a safety ever again.

There are 300-500cc cruisers out there that will likely fit you much better than a Ninja. A 500cc Honda Shadow will cost me $1700/yr with Dalton Timmis. Not the best, but considering my initial quotes were $2400-$3000, it's alright.

Have another way to boot into another OS. Either by CD, USB or another partition. Just Google "bootable usb", plenty of options that don't depend on ordering off the TV.

Don't worry, construction never goes past its deadline.

Not exactly the same offense. Yes both are distracted, and I'm in favour of a pedestrian fine. However as a distracted driver you're more endangering others whereas a pedestrian is more endangering themselves. It would never be enforced though, and an unenforced law may as well not exist...

Went there about two weeks ago for a safety, was around $90. I appreciated that Doug put up with my neon greenness. Will be going there first if anything goes wrong.
