Yup made it out for about an hour... wish it coulda been more but having been up for 18 hrs at that point didnt seem healthy...that and im guessing since my helmet isnt broken in yet, it was startin to hurt my head. I am happy to say I did make it around "main" roads, ie burnhamthorpe, winston...

LOL sadly im still at work in East TO...in my car lol.gonna leave soon so crossed fingers!

LOL lets see if I can make it on and off burnhamthorpe/erin mills first LOL

I get home from work around 8am so hopefully traffic isnt too brutal at that time on a sunday and plannin on heading out that time...hopefully I dont embarass myself too badly or worse, injure the bike (and me i guess) in the process LOL

Im goin to try this route hopefully early sunday... I work overnights so unfortunately cant go today :sAny other suggestions w regards to downshifting? My car doesnt rev as much as my bike when I tried downshifting :sAny other suggestions with regards to hittin main roads for the 1st time?

I followed Cat13's suggestion and contacted learning curves. Set up an appointment with Danielle for some 1 on 1 just so she can maybe offer a refresher to bolster the confidence level...crossed fingers it works out?

Everyone is right with regards to the confidence...Im one of the those people that tend to over-analyze and if I dont know ALL Im a little bit hesitant. I know that its impossible to know EVERYTHING about riding but I just feel like a complete newb. I was waitin to get used to the low speeds of...

Hi Guys, Havent ridden in 3 yrs and only for the weekend of the M2 exit course. Have my M2 for 3 yrs but havent really used it. I have friends who have been generous enough to offer to guide me however I feel bad holding them back (though they volunteered). What do you guys think: 1. keep...

Hi Action, I did what you were asking, and in terms of the insurance, it DID make a massive difference as mihnea suggested, they ask how long youve had your M2. Both SF and Meloche ask if youve had it at least a year, Statefarm stated as soon as u have the M2 for a year it didnt matter if youve...

+1 to bluestreak racing... I compared it to a lot of local and online places and they have one of the best pricing. I have the XN15...even better Tony can get it to you in 2 days!

Sooo bike is now safe and sound at home! trailered it with friend's bf driving her van...thanks a lot to Rod from Kahuna for strapping my bike in for me...I know it wasnt part of his job but it was really nice...and the bike did not move AT ALL! which was a big sigh of relief! All in all much...

LOL I just bought the bike... I eventually will probably start trying to do the work myself but for this particular one I think I may have to leave it to the professionals lol. ON a side note... Do people here have an opinion which is better? No Cut Frame sliders or the traditional one that a...

Hi Guys, So all the posts in the general discussion and newbie section mentions the importance of frame sliders. Im specifically looking for frame sliders for a 250 ninja but would also greatly appreciate any input on where to buy (dealership or online) and if I buy online where to go get them...

Oh im not paying $100. trailer rental was $15 bucks lol. for that price, at least im not riding in the rain for the first time...that and steeles is a pretty brutal street to try and learn on. Im going to start slow as I havent actually ridden outside of the motorcycle course. It might be a...

LOL im riding it back (depending on the rain on wed) from the uhaul place Im picking up the trailer at to my dad's house... so if you see an incredibly slow rider on a 250...in the mississauga winston churchill and royal windsor area...sorry :S

Yup. I tried to find somethin reasonable in the used section here, in Kijiji, Autotrader and craigslist as well as FB. lol everyone was asking ridiculous amounts for used + high mileage/ or dropped... for an extra 500 at least I know if I screw up what screwed up...though I am crossing my...

Hi unl33t, I did take the course before getting my M2...I took it at sheridan 3 yrs ago. I still wouldnt feel comfortable driving it back in all actuality though

um im a complete newb...I dont even know what those are LOL. I got one of my friends to get her boyfriend to agree to drive her van, rented a uhaul motorcycle trailer (hopefully it comes with tie downs but im also borrowing a "canyon dancer" harness (i have no clue he said its a good thing to...

Hi Guys, I went with Kahuna, they were great and worked with me. Im due to pick up wednesdays so hopefully no surprises or anything... thank you for all the advice!! hopefully itll help all the other prospective buyers at dealerships
