Not sure about the wording of this one. Giving up right of way can be confusing and dangerous as you are expected to go by the car turning, the car behind you, the pedestrian who hasn't noticed the car you are deferring to, etc. Hesitancy often results in everyone going at once. Perhaps you mean...

Repeatedly upgrade your skills and awareness through professional training.

That's about right. No valve check is needed for the 300 until 16k (but check your manual). Pay the $100: if your dealer finds anything amiss it will be fixed immediately and under warranty.

Why? Are you both fourteen? Can't people get drunk anymore? Do we look down on people in their cups? The world's getting too weird for me. "It's not the serious and chronic physiological damage or the financial and emotional cost of alcohol that we're worried about Furpo, it's that cross-eyed...

Is it relevant that the acceptability of drunkenness is subject to fashion, and is cultural? Would it not be odd if an employer could supply you the world's most damaging drug and then fire you for being under its influence?

Is that addressed at me? I'm not sure because it's not really connected with anything I said. My question was what is the appropriate sanction? I suggested suspension without pay and equity training. You believe termination is the correct response. Okay. I believe in rehabilitation and...

Hang on a mo. Losing your job with cause is pretty serious. It is difficult to find another job and without the income you may well lose your car and your home. Your whole family will suffer. That is why employment tribunals consider sacking to be like a capital offense and require that it was...

Sure, but your post is conjecture at best because we don't have a parallel thread: what happened and our critical comments. I get that we can do better with left turners (surely if you know it's the biggest threat you treat it as such?) but we all cross intersections with cars waiting to go. Do...

Was that a red CB500X I saw heading east on St. Clair by the stockyards at about 5pm today? Fine looking bike.

Same thing here, southbound DVP today about 4pm but no idea what sport bike, I just remember the back protector. I move around in my lane for a number of reasons: tar snakes; getting in someone's mirror; preparing to overtake; etc. On this occasion I was briefly in the right section of the slow...

If I understand correctly you are going into neutral when stopped at lights (or elsewhere). You may be better off reducing speed to very slow, engaging first, then staying in first with the clutch in and your back brake on. You are always ready to move should you need to but the driver behind...

Re: Big *** ticket oh. carry on.

Re: Big *** ticket So you believe you have a "50/50 chance" of getting a "big *** ticket" reduced after paying for a "really good" lawyer. Do you know how long a top lawyer has to work to charge you the cost of your "big *** ticket". That's right, not even one of your coffee breaks. (You can't...

Sit on the bikes, loads of them. If it doesn't have a centre stand have the salesman straddle the front wheel so you can sit on it when it is upright. How does it feel? Look at the seat height. Is the 500 actually taller? The CBR500 is 0.2 inches taller than the CBR300. Foot peg location makes a...

Thanks for this. We read about crashes all too often but it is very difficult to get more than the basic info. I'm pretty sure this community would want to know: type of bike; speeds involved; road condition; sequence of events; etc. Is this information released by police? It would be very...

studiocycle sell such a thing for $5. loops over opposite handlebar. mandatory for disk locks. luckily I was easing out real slow because I was tight between two cars and realized quickly why the bike was resisting...no drop or damage. 10 minutes later I paid my fiver.

Your local--Brampton Powersports--is a good start. Wide selection, knowledgeable and honest staff.

Agreed--or the new 300cc versions of cbr, ninja, r3: all good for a beginner. Still, I'm veering from the question and you cannot beat the cbr125 for value.

No, he says in his youtube comments that he just didn't see the SUV. He was focused on a car slowing ahead of him. Had to be the one in the middle lane, which means his peripheral vision is poor. Nobody's 'blaming' the rider just reasonably asking what he did wrong that allowed a vehicle to hit...
