    2016 Demo Rides/Days

    As far as I know it was just the standard R1, but they didn't have a plate for it at Clairs. The FZ10 was there though and it was a blast to ride.

    06 suzuki gs500f changing oil

    Just a heads up that if you're planning to change the oil filter, there are models where you'll have to drop the exhaust headers to get at the filter. That's the case with my gf's 2005 gs500... kinda sucks.

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    At worst all of the accessories would set you back 3.5k. Maybe his mechanic had a $1k an hour labour rate

    $5000 increase with Intact Insurance

    ...did you run someone over last season? That's an insane increase. I dropped Intact last year when they wanted an additional $200 a year from $3,400 to $3,600. After calling a number of places my best quote was from Ronn at Dalton Tim's insurance... at $1,000 less than Intact.

    Speed limits: Is faster safer?

    If the 85th percentile was measured by CBC while there was a speed limit in place and the threat of enforcement of that limit then it's not really the 85th percentile. I'd imagine the 85th percentile (measured in good weather conditions with light traffic) of the 401 is higher than 130km/h but...

    Anyone else out still riding on the nice days?

    Went out last night with the GF in Hamilton. Her bike wouldn't start (dead battery) so she hopped on the back of mine and we went for a quick ride up the mountain. Saw 1 other rider heading up Wellington St N.

    Motorcycle dealers make no money from bike?

    Majority of the time the initial GROSS profit on a bike was less than $1,000. Net was probably substantially less.
