Hey man I'm in Burlington as well. I have felt your pain and know where your coming from. I currently ride a quad and go to Ganaraska and Gopher Dunes (I find those places to be the most bang for buck and best travel time). Motorpark is great if you plan ahead and are able to get going early in...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSqdqjQDOn4 I also thought about a grizzly. Mostly because this is an awesome video of a guy riding a grizzly.

Thanks for all the comments. I am definitely reconsidering my lust for a big bore machine. I've always had a soft spot for Banshee's and the beautiful 2 stroke pinging sound. The Raptor 700 looks like an overall improved version of the banshee, although the front end probably weighs more. I also...

Yah it's a tough decision. I used to take my bike to motopark mostly but now that I live in Burlington it's 2 hours 20 min away. Gopher dunes and the Ganny are only 1 hr 30 min away. One of those big bore quads will cost almost 16-17 grand out the door. Whereas I could buy a new Raptor for much...

Yah thought about doing that, but I find it often depends on the employee at the MTO, sometime they simply refuse to deal with anything off road related. I also have this itch for massive big bore power and this craving to give a machine way to much throttle and have the rear end slide loose, I...

I don't actually have money to burn, but I am interested in getting a new toy. Back in October I tried atv'ing at Ganaraska Forest through TrailTours and now I'm interested in getting one. My big dilemma right now is I own a street bike and a dirt bike and to be realistic I would have to get rid...

I'm with TD (Meloche Monnex) and my insurance went from 1258 to 1374 from 2014 to 2015.

Also check out http://www.chesterman.ca/ it's abut 1 hour and 30 minutes from Milton, would be a good place to ride in the winter.

I'd go with the first one. I dislike the fact that the 2nd one is being sold from a Condo parking space. I admit I'm prejudice because I feel that if you live in a condo you don't have the space / tools/ resources to maintain a bike. Although it is possible the condo person paid someone to do...

That was a nice thread resurrection. Although helpful, cause I've never heard of these guys before. The ATV rental part might be worth it, vs trailtours.com. You get the whole day and no instruction to take the ATV out and play.

Looks like a fairly clean bike in the pic, for the age and mileage on it. I would consider it a high maintenance motorcycle, so buyer beware. You can probably look at the receipts and go speak with the mechanic who did the work.

On another unrelated note, this reminds me of a tales from the crypt kind of story. "The tale of the Abandoned 400 Ninja" I would throw in a whole back story of how the original owner was a beset by unfortunate circumstance or something really tragic happened to him like he was on his way home...

I'm just intrigued with the story. My understanding is if you go to the MTO with a VIN and pay the $20-30 to get used vehicle package, which I think is required when selling your own vehicle to private buyer. That thing should tell you who the owner is whether it's a private owner or a leasing...

This is just like if you were driving down the road and saw a super valuable classic car and wanted to purchase it. You would have to do some leg work and investigation but eventually you could figure out who the rightful owner of the vehicle was and make them an offer. If the bike was just left...

Seems like a nice cop.

Back in 2001, I used to ride there, way better back then when the hill was built up and the trails were traveled more, also just south along the tracks was more trails and a couple little jumps, it was a good learning spot. One time, approximately 2001, when I was riding there I saw a guy...

Just thought I'd add.......When I owned the DRZ400SM, I considered trailering the bike to Colorado just to have it worked on by that Eddie Sisenero guy who turns those 30hp engines into 60+ fire breathing dragons. That though was always in the back of my mind, it haunted me so, I'm glad I'm now...

I used to own a DRZ400sm and put 8,000km on it from new. I spent lots of money on farkles, pipe, bigger fcr39 carb, to me the bike was fun but it was never enough. I sold it and rode a Honda Varadero for 15,000km, sold that and got a FJR1300. Now I have 8,000 on my FJR and love that more than...

I'm very discouraged from even trying this for a couple of reasons. One, is that my Mazda is brand new and I don't want to do anything to it that could result in damage or serious long term wear and tear. Two, its my wife's main car and she carries the baby around in it, also she doesn't like...

I just sold a fold up trailer very similar to the harbor freight one. Unfortunately space is at a premium for me. I'm considering saving up and getting rid of my Toyota corolla in favour of a Ford ranger or a Toyota Tacoma. I just don't think the Mazda can handle all that weight on the back of...
