    off road riding rules up north ?

    I had the opposite experience about 4 years ago. Riding the ditch for a short stretch up north about 6 ft off highway on an insured green plated bike got stopped by a cop who told me not so nicely that what I was doing was illegal. I think the only reason I didn't get a ticket was because he was...

    off road riding rules up north ?

    I think the part about needing lights is misleading. If you dig deeper it seems to say you only need them when on a "highway" 1/2 before sunset and 1/2 hour after sunrsie (2.1) Despite subsections (1) and (2) and despite subsection 62 (2) of the Act, an off-road motorcycle must carry the...

    Winter storage nightmare

    The dealer I am talking about pushes bikes out in the winter as well. Whether these are bikes that are in for service I don't know but it seems like a lot of Bikes. Personally I keep my bikes pristine and always stored inside. If I do ride in the rain (which is inevitable) I always dry it off...

    Winter storage nightmare

    Be careful where you store your bike. I know of at least one dealer that moves all the stored bikes outside each morning and back in each evening so they have room for service.

    Any experience with Ready Powersports? With KTMs specifically?

    A few months ago a bunch of non current brand new KTM's showed up for sale at two used bike dealers. I suspect it might have been Ready liquidating their KTM's. I would have thought KTM would move them to another KTM dealer.

    I thought I saw a post here on changes to the Off road vehicle act that allows dirt bikes with green plate to ride on the shoulder of the road like ATV's. I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a link ?

    ATV rules expanded. What about us ?

    Seems like ATV's (4 wheel) keep getting more and more access. http://barrie.ctvnews.ca/new-rules-for-atvs-come-into-effect-on-july-1-1.2414457 Pretty discouraging for two wheeled vehicles . Some of those side by sides are as big as a small car yet we cant get access on a dirt bike. The rail...

    Small off-road bike recommendation?

    Do not buy a Chinese knockoff. It may seem like good value compared to the name brands but it will be broken on the first ride. These bikes are like throw away lighters. neighbour bought one. I have never seen such cheap parts.

    Bike Trade-ins

    Don't expect much on a Trade in. My experience is most shops don't want trade ins so they lowball. GP might be a little better as they do sell used bikes as part of their business.
