I am going to chime in on this one. Took the course at Humber in 1980, class work on Friday evening and show your learners permit. Riding all day Saturday and Sunday morning. After lunch on Sunday was the practical test for by same instructors in the parking lot. Pass it and you get the M. I...
Don't know where you are located, but that would be a start. Regear is in Oshawa and has some decent used stuff. You also have GP Bikes and Royal Distributing in Whitby. I think most places allow to to try stuff on.
Claimed wet weight of the BMW is 489lbs. I realize I am comparing apples and watermelons here but even if the Duc spec is dry weight we are still looking at 100 lbs.

Parking lots are good - if you can find an empty, clean one. Used to be much easier before Sunday shopping. Crack of dawn Sunday is good, apparently youngsters today can't get up. And there's still time to get back home, spark up the barbie and burn some meat.
Just as a bit of a giggle, my go...
My understanding is that "Stella" is called the wife beater because of the movie "Streetcar Named Desire" with Marlon Brando. The part where he screams "Stella" - check out the t-shirt Brando is wearing. That t-shirt, my friends, is a 'beater.
Got that from a barkeep and it may be true but I...
Pat,
I started riding again after a lay off a tad longer than yours. I took a new riders course, at Learning Curves, as a refresher and to drop someone else's bike. It is something to consider. The new kit is rather cool. I do miss wearing my leather jacket, apparently it's now only good as a...
