Again thanks for all the Intel. Again I am more confused as I see this which seems like a steal: 2006 Yamaha FZ6 good condition great selling price...

Stopped in last night to pick up some chain lube and Met Adrian for the first time. His shop is super clean and he was super helpful. You can tell he's very passionate about motorcycles as well as customer service. Highly recommended. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

Could I buy a bike in the fall and trailer it home, then in the spring trailer it to a shop for safety, then put it on the road? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

Which leads to my next question: after purchasing, is there a timeline to have it safetied? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

If bikes are like cars, they wouldn't have to even run to pass a safety. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

Thanks. This helps. I know cars and car pricing (somewhat). Motorcycles are a new thing for me. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

What would you pay for this bike? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

Great intel, thanks everyone! I've found some what I think are better deals than I've previously seen. I guess the bikes need to be looked at, as some of the deals seem to be sitting on Kijiji for multiple weeks. Right now is more investigation, and I'll likely purchase in the fall, but...

This add intrigued me: http://www.kijiji.ca/v-buy-sell-other/city-of-toronto/2005-yamaha-fz6-st-very-cheap-on-insurance-20-000km/1260018402?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Ideally, I'd like something that has many miles left on it, yet not too nice as if I were to drop it, I won't feel too bad...

Thanks. My price range is <$5000, however I will go above that. Year range 2005-2009. I see some 2005s for $3600, others for $4600, also 2007s varying by $1000 or more for the same mileage. This is all confusing. I want to know what are signs I should stay away, like in real estate...

New to the game here, how does one learn what a bike is really worth? I am confused by the variance in prices on used bikes, and not sure what's good value, what is junk, and what is a rip-off. Is there a blue book for motorbikes? FWIW, I'm looking at FZ6s exclusively. Thanks in advance...

Correct, but they do have pockets for hip and knee armour, and the OP did say with or without. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

Depending on the features of the jacket, I think you could rig the jacket to the belt loops or a belt somehow. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

I think I'd go with the Scorpion Covert as my next pair of riding jeans for the features and price:. https://fortnine.ca/en/scorpion-covert-jeans Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

It is my understanding that licensed automotive technicians who are qualified to safety cars can also safety motorcycles. The problem is if work needs to be done after that, they cannot work on the bike or get the parts. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

How often should the chain be cleaned (as well as lubed)? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

PrivatePilot I like the VStar idea except for what I understand they are carbureted and chain driven (correct me if I'm wrong). I haven't been riding long enough to have discovered my riding style. At this point, I like to ride and take in the scenery. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

I have noticed the SV was cheaper on insurance due to the smaller displacement. My GZ is small and thus the forward pegs arnt too far in front for my shorter stature. I feel a larger cruiser might be uncomfortable. I'm not partial to Suzuki, actually I really like the Yamaha FZ07 and...

Looking for my next (second bike). Currently own a Suzuki GZ250 and looking to upgrade to something with a little more power. The pros/cons I see are as follows: The SV650 is lighter, standard seating position, and slightly cheaper on insurance. The cons are it's chain driven = more...
