    9 year old passenger?....

    I don't think it will be re-introduced but who knows what our lovely MPP Dr. Jackzec (or however you spell it) can come up with next, she has a thing against motorcycles.

    Home made indicators

    Brian is spot on. I wish you luck understanding all the photometrics in the some of it is pretty brutal. The reality is though, that only manufacturers and importers actually need to comply of CMVSS. Even a Canadian manufacturer if they are manufacturing in one province and not shipping...

    The UN-Blocking position????

    Even the middle of the lane isn't as bad as it used to be. Not riding in the middle because of the oil really comes from an era when diesel trucks all had draft tubes that really dropped oil in the middle. This is not so much the case any more. I would say there is still a bit more oil in the...

    Shell v-power 91 = ?RON

    The octane rating isn't really what makes our fuel ****. The majority of the vehicles on the road in NA only require 87 avg (RON and MON) why would we want to pay for more additives. What makes our fuel crap is all the impurities that are in it and there are few regulations saying they should...

    Trailering my bike cross country, any tips?

    Although I'm sure that is a secure way to tie down a bike, it is not how I tie mine down. I use soft ties over the lower triple tree both left and right front and also a soft tie over frame piece that is under the rear passenger seat (left and rear) to make up the four straps. I compress the...

    Lawyer for Motorcycle related product?

    Well I'm not a lawyer but I'm quite well versed in CCPSA, have met with Health Canada several times to discuss it as that is part of my job. Basically for that if it's a consumer good, and it sounds like it is, and it isn't specifically exempt by being on Schedule 1, then it's included. This...

    Route suggestions for Toronto downtown to Perth

    I know the road just east of sharbot lake you are talking about to westport (gf dad lives in Newboro). That is a nice road, just have to watch for all the sand early in the season but with the rain we've had it should be good by now.

    An Argument for Riding Faster Than The Rest Of Traffic

    So what if everyone drove the same speed instead of you driving a different speed. If traffic all flowed at the same speed it would be safer. You would not suddenly appear in someones blind spot. Once the people around you were aware it would not be an issue. They wouldn't have to change...

    Toronto-Ottawa route

    I know the Hwy 7 Route and 401-416 route very well. Can anyone recommend a route that would take me further north on nicer riding road, although may take longer? The more detail the better. Planning to do this end of June

    Trick to triggering red lights

    so in this case 1000lbs of steel is heavier than 2000lbs of feathers? All kidding aside, it's the same way the parking gates work in many places, didn't you guys ever borrow parking in university by pulling up to the exit gate, and throwing a largish piece of steel (ie brake rotor) to the...

    Still in the Game Rides!!

    Anyone know a reliable mechanic?

    There are a few shops in Windsor. I always dealt with Iggy at Powersports on Walker Road. Never had any issues with them. If it's a Honda, Hudson motor in Tilbury (401 right at the Tilbury exit can see it from the highway) seems very good, I haven't had many dealings with them but the few I...
