    60 day wait makes no sense (when taking an M1 course)

    The 60 day period is the minimum amount of time you must wait between obtaining your M1 and getting your M2. IMO, this makes sense. Let the rider get used to riding for a while before allowing them greater freedom. Rider training courses are not mandatory but they're allowed to administer the...

    Armoured vest

    I recently bought the Alpinestars Track Vest but I'm only using it under leathers or a jacket. I wouldn't wear it alone.

    What I don't get it is why the rider would stomp on the brakes in a situation like that? I noticed that the car ahead of him was on the brakes so maybe it was because of that?

    Any one had any dealings with Toronto Fairings (dot com)?

    550 Yonge is that dark entrance between Pizzaiolo and McD's. Either someone is running a business from one of the apartments upstairs or this is a foreign company using a bogus address to appear as though they are domestic...

    Wow the vehicle filming nearly ran him over. There was no contact with the offending vehicle though. Looks like the rider tried to swerve and brake at the same time and that sent him down?

    Safety certificate test checklist

    Up to an hour I've had to wait. The quickest took 30 seconds. I sat there inside the shop watching them do it and it was clear that no one there knew anything about motorcycles. One time I had a big dude who was clearly drunk and he even test rode the bike around the block. Every location will...

    Safety certificate test checklist

    That just means you need to pass a Safety if you want to put the vehicle on the road. But if all you want to do is store it in a garage then you can skip the safety cert. If you just want a pass and don't mind paying double then Canadian Tire is pretty easy in my experience. Watched them do it...

    Millions of Motorcyclists Hacked!

    600rr.net is affected but I thought they had me change my password around that time anyway... I could be mistaken. Anyway, not much anyone can do with my forum accounts. They're all junk emails and never use those passwords for anything important.

    Dual Headlight Mod - 12 CBR600RR

    This is true. However, in reality it's not bad at all if you dial it down to around half brightness. It's much better than looking at HIDs--even properly aimed ones. No one has complained about my lights yet.

    Safety course - advanced techniques

    Take FAST or Racer5 unless you're specifically looking for a street riding course. Personally, I'd rather spend the time focusing on bike control rather than learning to ride in traffic which you will automatically learn with experience. I took FAST Phase I a few years ago.

    2016-06-15 Pembroke - rider dead

    RIP So no details have been released about the collision but the article says "his motorcycle struck another vehicle".

    Dual Headlight Mod - 12 CBR600RR

    I have the Tripage unit and it works well when it works. There was some build quality issue with the one I was shipped--bad solder job on one of the wires--but it was an easy fix for me. The unit also has an in-line fuse holder which melted on me. I don't know if this was due to an electrical...

    What to wear under leathers

    Is Michel teaching the classes still? ^This. I picked up the Everlast long and short sleeve tops as well as long and short underpants. They're sold in plastic pouches where the socks and underwear are.

    Transition Visors

    For the record, I've had my transitions lens (my second one) for 3 years and no noticeable degradation of tint. It gets just as dark as it did on Day 1.

    Small nail in tire

    So I ran the patched tire on the track. No issues whatsoever. Air seal is perfect. When these tires are done I'll try to remember to snap a photo of the inside.

    Transition Visors

    Since we're talking about shading, the Transitions also has a bit of a rosey tint to it. It's more noticeable looking from the inside out. From the outside it just looks like a dark smoke to everyone else.

    Xsr 900

    I love the style of this bike. Unfortunately couldn't make it out to the last demo day. Think I will wait a year or two though for them to hit the used market.
