    Transition Visors

    Here is Shoei's smoke, their photochromic in the middle, and a clear for comparison. Is there a darkness difference? You tell me. http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/sites/motorcyclistonline.com/files/styles/xl_1x_/public/images/2016/03/shoeicwr01_rf1200transition_web_001.jpg?itok=RoKtLBY5

    Transition Visors

    Yup. You can see clearly how my "dark smoke" visor is significantly darker than their Bell Transition visors. It's probably one of the most common review comments about photochromic visors. Simply put they don't get all that dark compared to your typical "dark smoke" visor. They are more like a...

    Transition Visors

    I have two buddies with the Qualifier DLX. They love the transition visor. However, they both agree, it does not get dark enough and often wish it got darker. I hear similar complaints about other photochromic visors. They tend to only get as dark as a "light" smoke visor, and not as dark as a...

    Repercussions of changing insured vehicle monthly, or even weekly

    Yes, because technically you agreed to insure a specific vehicle for 1 year. Yes things happen and that is why they are willing to accommodate changes like the buying and selling of vehicles. But unless you go with a specialty provider, I highly doubt any provider is going to be willing to...

    Repercussions of changing insured vehicle monthly, or even weekly

    Generally insurance is on a yearly basis. Habitual ending of yearly agreements will black list you and the insurer will simply charge you massive penalties if they do not simply black list you and refuse to provide you with insurance leaving you with limited choices as other insurers will be...

    Purchasing a Motorcycle! HELP!!

    Considering this guy is on his parents' insurance, I'm pretty sure his insurance provider would black list him, and depending on whether they thought his parents were complicit in it, would black list his parents as well. And with that no insurance charge, beyond the $5000 fine, I'd be shocked...

    Purchasing a Motorcycle! HELP!!

    If the bike is rideable enough to get it to its new home, it's rideable enough to get a temp plate, insure it, ride it to get safetied, or get a mobile safety done.

    Purchasing a Motorcycle! HELP!!

    So then why not borrow bike from friend to get safetied or have friend take it to get safetied. Once safetied, call insurance and get coverage. THEN go to MTO to get plates? You know . . . the way you're supposed to do it.

    Failure to produce ownership/insurance...what do you guys think?

    You are guilty of not producing proof of insurance and registration, which is required to operate a vehicle in this jurisdiction. That you want to use legal means to essentially beg forgiveness to reduce your penalty does not change the fact that you were guilty of not producing proof of...

    Failure to produce ownership/insurance...what do you guys think?

    Just to play devil's advocate . . . I wonder how that situation with the LEO would have gone had you gone with the same game plan.

    Motorcycle pants that aren't huge

    If the Joe Rocket small pants fit, but were just too long . . . most motorcycling specific pants tend to be longer, especially if sport oriented. My pants are super long and fit terribly on me just standing around. But on a bike, everything fits like it's supposed to. Dainese and "euro" sizing...

    Cheap wireless com system for rider passenger

    Not sure about other manufacturers but all the newest Senas can connect with other brands to comm. However, I believe there are limitations. For example, I believe you can have up to 3 Sena units paired with your own on all the new units, and I believe the 20s can do 5. But if you want to pair...

    Early resolution

    Do what PP said. Unless you've had the same no proof of insurance and ownership tickets before, the JP will let you off. However, if you have had either of those tickets before, or police provide the JP with proof you've been stopped, and been warned multiple times before about proof of...

    Starting to get the itch for a more modern bike. Suggestions for a modern naked?

    I believe so. I think he was asking like $11,300 and it had 10,xxx km on it. I figured the $300 ish was because he wanted $11,000 flat on it. It was definitely a fair price. I'm sure it's sold by now. But at the same time, glad I got the 1100 RR. Love the handling with the new swing arm and...

    Did Tony also accuse you of not returning the incorrect parts after sending you incorrect and missing parts?

    Canadian Online Stores

    Actually, that sounds very similar to my situation. Emailed to confirm the parts I was ordering were compatible with my particular bike. Slightly dismissively stated "yes they are all the same" and nothing more. Ordered the parts. When the arrived they were not compatible. Had to send parts...
