    Time to get one of my boys in dirt riding - looking for a first bike

    Honda 110 is a great bike and should last him a few years unless he starts wanting something more aggressive. Hard to find these bikes used and when you do people seem to be asking not much less than new.

    Non name-brand dirt bikes

    Stay away from the Chinese junk. You will spend more time fixing than riding. Everything about them is cheap. There are no short cuts. Save a bit longer and buy a used name brand

    HB Cycle Review

    I haven't found anyone that beats there prices on KTM's. GPBikes is a good shop but they didn't come close on an EXC

    HB Cycle Review

    If you are looking for a bike, quad, snowmobile etc... I would highly recommend HB Cycle. If you haven't heard of them they are just north of Lindsay on Hwy 35. Well worth the drive. They sell Yamaha , Kawasaki, Suzuki and KTM. I have purchased 3 KTM bikes from Marty over the last 4 years and...

    Snow city cycle :( Two wheels motorsports :)

    Charging extra because you didn't buy tires there seems like not a good business decision. Why not do the install for a fair price and then maybe next time I will come to you for tires as well. I don't buy any of these liability arguments. I buy tires for my car online all the time and no one...

    KTM dealer

    Smart move not going to GP or Ready. My vote is for Orange Motor sports. A little further to drive but good prices and they know KTM bikes if you ever need Service.HB Cycle also has good pricing but not as knowledgeable for Service.

    Best KTM dealer in the GTA?

    My experience with GP is they wont move off MSRP on KTM's and I refuse to pay MSRP for anything. When I asked why they said because they have no trouble selling them. Go to Orange or HB Cycle. Both are easy to deal with and will give you a proper discount . I have purchased many new KTM's from...

    who to insure a dual-sport with?

    All you should have to do is give them the VIN and the bike should show up. All manufacturers have to submit VIN and Model. The only issue I ever had was a 450 EXC came up as a 530 EXC. I had to get KTM to call them and explain it was a 450.

    Thoughts on KTM 690 SM?

    I have never had an issue with getting KTM parts and I have owned 5 of them. If not in stock they have always been shipped within 3 days. I believe they come from Quebec which is KTM Canada's head office

    Most of the OFSC trails do not allow dirt bikes. Only ATVs. It's been a long running battle

    How bad is this?

    Perfectly normal on a Ktm ( assuming first oil change)

    is it normal for bike shops to charge "more" for labour?

    it's no burden if it takes longer. They just charge you more. You lose either way. That's why you need to find a trustworthy shop.

    Need a light 'street legal' dirt bike... Any advice?

    I can say with certantity that you will not find any new 2 stroke bikes from the factory blue plated in Ontario. They would never pass emissions. Ktm currently has two dirt bikes that are blue plated from the factory . 350 EXC (which I have) and 500 EXC. Both these bikes are choked up with...

    Yamaha R6 slip on exup cables ?

    Hello, I have a 2012 R6 and will be putting on a Yoshimura TRC slip on. What happens to the exup assembly after I remove the stock muffler ? I heard that the check engine light may stay on ? Thanks
