Hi, I'm looking at buying a street triple R and am worried about two things: 1. You can hear a slight drag from the brake pads. Is this normal? It doesn't really get worse as the wheel spins so it doesn't seem like the rotor is warped, but I'm worried there's somehow a constant drag which will...

I'm sorry, but your post makes no sense. Most of your premium goes towards the summer months, so if you're paying paying monthly and canceled at the end of the summer then of course you have more to pay or everyone would be cancelling at the end of the summer and saving a ton on their...

Hey guys, Just hoping someone can give me advice or a company that I may have missed. TD are currently offering me the cheapest rate. This is my second year riding and StateFarm actually raised my premium by a few % after a perfectly clean year of riding. A number of brokers from various...

You guys are all badmouthing TD, but they are currently offering me the cheapest rate. This is my second year riding and StateFarm actually raised my premium by a few % after a perfectly clean year of riding. 27 years old, G for over 10 years, M2 since Nov. 2013, clean record, live in Toronto...

He sold the bike two weeks ago.

Well you don't want it till you need it. Of course it's no substitute for proper riding technique, but the point is that it can save you from a fall when you do end up doing something stupid.

Yup, CBR125 haha

Is it just me or is this thread the first interesting discussion on here in the last few months? Thanks for the great info Shaman! I'd hate to think how many accidents could have been avoided if more people had ABS on their bikes. I've been saved who knows how many times by ABS. Last time I was...

I've been wondering about the ABS on my CBR500 too. Even if I'm not breaking all that hard(maybe 80%) it still pulsates. Does that mean that there is actual slippage occurring? Cause the rear is nowhere near lifting off so there must be more breaking power. Or is my single disk brake just not...

Calm your tits guys, I appreciate the patronizing humour, but I was just going to Cabana.

Come on guys, just cause you're on a bike, doesn't mean you can't ride in style :P

Anyone know how the Honda event on Sunday works? Can you schedule a time or do you have to show up and 8am for a chance to get anything interesting?

I started on a 2013 CBR500RA(current bike) and I'm really happy with it. Since then I've test rode pretty much every type of sportbike and haven't been able to justify upgrading. This bike has great power for around the city and more than enough on the highway. It's comfortable, nimble, very...

Anyone try out the new CBR650F? I'm thinking of moving up from a CBR500R and it looks like a potential candidate. Where can I demo it around Toronto?

Why are you not considering the Street Triple R as well? It's easily better than any of the bikes you listed.

Yah, my buddy did the same thing on the 401. Sounds like you need a bike with ABS ;) But I practice hard braking pretty much every time I go out. Being able to stop fast safely is an invaluable skill.

Have you guys been able to register for the BMW demos this Sunday? I emailed the guy on the list like a week ago and have yet to hear back.

What would you guys recommend as the best SS for someone who's 6'3"? I've been on a 2014 ZX-6R and also on a Daytona 675R. The Triumph was actually far more comfortable, but the heat from the engine goes right at your right knee! I literally had to move my knee out cause it felt like it was...

Which website are you using to register? What if I just show up and hope there's a spot? Cause I'm sure only like 50% of people that register actually show up to these. Even if it's nice weather.
