    Putting irreparable bike back on the road

    Nope, then it's just the other bike, including whatever baggage comes with it's VIN.

    Car insurance and "only driver form"

    Since you may occasionally swap cars, it is the reality you wish to represent. Unless she has a horrible record it will have zero effect on price. I would never sign it. There is a different form for excluding a driver from a policy (if they would jack up the rate,) or she should be listed on...

    insurance right or wrong

    There seem to be some words missing... which parties? sued for for what? Being the registered owner of an un-insured, road-worthy vehicle may have many risks and liabilities, which is probably what they are trying to get at. Just remove some wheels, the battery and some other bits and bobs if...

    Car insurance and "only driver form"

    Put her as a secondary driver? Switch to her company?

    Two left turners: who has right of way?

    If you are too far back he thinks you are letting him go first, then gets mad when the story changes. There is nothing wrong with turning at the same time if you are both coordinated. Specifically, start your turn after the bus shelter, not before. On a bike? Same deal, get in front of B's...

    Two left turners: who has right of way?

    A has the right of way unless there are stop signs and B stopped first. B is entering a roadway and must yield to traffic on it. Being A in similar situations I will always creep forward (as I would for a left in an intersection with lights) and take the turn in such a way that B can make their...

    Grand Bend September 19

    Agreed, and thanks for the video. I was surprised about the collar bone, I saw the whole thing except the actual falling over in the grass and thought he would be fine.

    Making a track bike into a street bike

    What he said. ^ Being track-ready is not a simple either-or, and converting back and forth, even if it has been as simplified as possible, can turn into quite an annoyance. Has the fair-stay been swapped, rectifier been moved, left-hand electronics removed, kickstand removed and safety switch...

    conundrum? double talk, or being misled?

    Sounds like prize pool was set by entrants, and the organizers got a whopping $20 out of the deal. If the prize money was in fact decided after the event it is because the organizers failed to plan for a low-turn-out contingency and just went with what seemed fair at the time. I wouldn't call...

    Need Help With Car Rim and Tire Sizes

    People do both, narrower width for better traction on actual snow/ice and smaller diameter rims for both price and a softer ride. Tire sizes are such a mess, (width in mm/ratio/inner diameter in inches) Ick.

    Wide rear view mirror attached to windshield.

    I cut one of the smallest (2" diameter) mirrors in half and then taped the halves into my mirrors with no bevels, works great. I don't need to see more sky but the parking lines are handy to spot, I also get a measure of rear-view because I put them at the outside of the stock mirrors and the...

    Track tires

    Any opinions on the Pirelli Diablo Rosso II? I've quite enjoyed mine, though I'm not saying that means anything. Over here is a nice (but long) article about them and their design history.

    How many of you from Toronto want to go to Tail Of The Dragon together?

    I rode down once, doubt I ever will again. I'm very glad I didn't have to ride back too.

    Ontario should make winter tires mandatory.

    You didn't see it because you didn't have them, it's not a race. If you are running from a black bear, you only need to be faster than the slowest guy to survive, but in ice-capades/bumper-cars you need to out-maneuver everyone and their grandmothers. Skilled drivers can 'get away' with...

    importing private sale item

    Your trouble here is the taxation is on the 'Canadian dollar value of the goods', not the sale amount. They can look up the value and tax on that, I've heard of them finding actual purchase prices from internet auction items and taxing on that, I don't know if they can go as far as ignoring...

    Some questions about fitting race bodywork

    I'm guessing it's the same as 600, where if you use the stock stay you will need to make big holes in the skin for the nubs that the mirrors mount to. It'll work but it makes removal and installs more of a pain forever. You can zip-tie the cluster in or run without it, but that yosh piece looks...
