Really not that much to get excited about. Some of the roads were ok, but the surface on many of the good parts left a lot to be desired (sand, potholes, gravel, etc). Really takes the fun out because if you push it around a corner and find the entire road covered in sand on the backside of the...

Admittedly a little off topic, but it caught my eye in your post. I don't know if you've done a 1000km day on a bike before, but unless you have a really comfortable seat and are used to serious endurance riding, that may be a little ambitious. Especially if you are riding all day before and...

Was at Ashbridges bay last night for the fireworks and traffic was a complete mess for kilometers going in for the show and going out. Plenty of LEOs and plenty of bikes doing filtering around stopped traffic, but I didn't see anyone getting pulled over or ticketed. Bikes were definitely the...

Yup, our building was shaking.

Another vote for this. If you have one of the nicest bikes in the parking of a large downtown condo, it's just a matter of time. Doesn't matter if you chain it, or put an alarm, or cover it. My buddy had his brand new GSXR-600 stolen the spring after he got it and he had it secured with a chain...

Good point. Anyone know if (and how), I can add a new question to an existing survey?

Agreed, not worth the risk to ride on the shoulder of the DVP or any other highway. You're just asking for trouble doing that. However the title of the thread is "NON-HIGHWAY traffic filtering". Specifically low aggression filtering at a light when there is space to do this safely. I'm not...

Well, regarding the money grab, you could say the same about all the cars which go 110KPH on the highway, or 55KPH in a 50 zone, or do a rolling stop at a 4-way intersection when there are no cars around. If LEOs want to throw the book and charge you, they can. Yet being charged for these things...

The heads up is much appreciated Rob! I do however want to make a request to everyone to limit feedback to the specific description of traffic filtering I listed in the original post. I think most riders would agree that lane lane splitting on the Gardiner, and aggressive hooligan style weaving...

There is a lot of evidence that low aggression filtering is a grey zone. I have spoken with several LEOs and they seemed generally unsure of what law this is breaking even though GTAM members have found a case precedent which supports filtering having been a significant ticketable offense at...

Ok, so there have been tons of threads about traffic filtering over the years and answers ranging from "Major fine and points for stunting" to "Cops just ignore you". I am guessing that a lot of the variation comes from how and where people filter. If you're burning by the shoulder of a 400...

Ontario simply looks like an inept attempt to draw a straight line. The US ones look like a parkinsons sufferer trying to draw a curvy line. P.S. No disrespect intended to Parkinsons sufferers, it's just an analogy.

Yeah, $5k is a very good deal for the bike Jampy00 is offering. I don't know him so this isn't a biased recco, but if he'd had that up at the start of last year, I'd have scooped that up pretty fast. I spent at least $700 to get mine new shoes (PR3s) and make it some carbon fibre lower fairings...

If it's been well taken care of that's a good deal. I got my 05 SV650s at the start of last year with 26k KMs, no fairings (but a few upgrades like M4 full exhaust and power commander), for around $4300 if i remember correctly. Not a steal, but not a horrible price either. The seller turned...

Fair point, but don't make the mistake of assuming that the product which sells best is the product that works best. Inlines tend to be popular in this class because supersport buyers love to boast high horsepower specs and a top speed that can triple the speed limit (or more). Unfortunately...

Wanna recheck that before telling someone else they're wrong? Take 5 values - 1, 1, 2, 3, 10 Average = 3.4 (with 4 out of 5 values below it) Median = 2 (Equal number of values below as above) While it's possible that the median and average could be the same, most of the time they're not...

Yeah I'm really happy with em (PR3s). Even wrote a review on GTAM recently. Guess I misread your earlier post and assumed you had more than one bike. Wow, sounds like you've put almost as much into mods than the original bike cost! Cool, if you crash my bike, i'll just keep yours :D 507 sounds...

Why would you go with the older version? The 3's are only like $10-15 more for the pair and they rate better in stopping distance, are quieter, and have slightly better overall handling according to most who have used both. Besides, just because you don't go out to ride in the rain, doesn't mean...

Nope, never been to 507, sounds interesting for sure! I'm running PR3s, so probably not quite the grip you're used to from a full-on supersport, but still one of the better dual compounds out there. If you're planning to do stuff on regular roads that requires more grip than the PR3 can give...

Yeah sure, as long as you bring her back as you got her, I'm happy to swap for a bit lol What rides do you have to choose from?
