    Plastics: How much scratching is too much to repaint?

    I have a number of very minor, hairline scratches on my rear plastics - they're super-shallow, you certainly couldn't feel them by touch, but in bright lighting you can see them if you look closely for them. I'm pretty sure they're from being not especially careful in choosing cloths to wipe the...

    illegal to mod your motorcycle into street fighter looks in toronto

    Might be more specific about what you mean by 'changing my looks into streetfighter'... that can mean a lot of different things depending on what you like, how much work you're doing, and what bike you're starting with. Just removing fairings and throwing dominator lights on the front is...

    When pulling to a stop at a light I shift my position in the lane to ensure they can't pull this crap.

    600-650cc bikes for beginner (Old school please suggest)

    I can't help but think that it might be because in many cases small bikes are boring and large bikes are less boring, but that the two factors aren't necessarily linked intrinsically. Big bikes tend to look nicer than small bikes. Many of the best looking bikes have large displacements. Big...

    need your opinion

    What kind of advice is this? There's nothing unsafe about using the kill switch, it interrupts the same electrical circuit as any other mechanism you would use to turn off the engine. I mean, you're really saying that if I want to turn my engine off but keep my lights and accessories on I've...

    Need to buy jacket+helmet+gloves (store location)

    Okay, I was gonna leave this one alone since I figured that someone would be along to mention the usual stores shortly, but... this guy said GTA, and people are giving places out in Whitby or Guelph... c'mon, that's hardly in the GTA. If you want something a bit closer inside the GTA (i.e., TTC...

    moral question: when is it ok to cross double yellow?

    The trick is that it's not illegal because there's a double yellow line, it's illegal because there's a HOV sign (the sign on the pole, not the diamond painted on the road).

    Bikes in the HOV lanes

    Congestion means 'how full the roads are', right? If you took every vehicle on the road and hit it with a shrinking ray reducing it to half size, there would be a lot more empty room on the roads, so I'd call that reduction in congestion.

    Bikes in the HOV lanes

    What's wrong with assessing the quantity of vehicles by something other than the number of individual vehicles? Counting the quantity of vehicles based on something like the aggregate volume, weight or fuel consumption of vehicles on the roads seems equally valid, in which case single occupant...

    Should I tow?

    Rosey Toes website says that they pick up bikes for 60$ in the GTA, dunno if they count Thornhill as part of the GTA though.
