    Rider down Leslie/Sheppard

    Looks like a bright green kawi, sport or sport tourer. Doesn't look great but when the saw dust came out, it looked like it was for the bike's fluids. Will try to investigate and update. But the traffic is ruined at that intersection right now. Beautiful day but please ride safe. CORRECTION...

    parking near yonge and finch?

    I know of one person who (iirc) had an R1 stolen off Duplex, just west of Yonge and Finch. But I'd personally still prefer to street park than park in a condo unless I could chain it up or something... I honestly think theft is more likely in a condo garage than on a major street, especially...

    parking near yonge and finch?

    There are tons of street parking spots (free for bikes) in the area, and I don't recall many time restrictions either. What are you looking for exactly?

    Seller is not on UVIP. red flag?

    jeprox13: you seem really keen on buying this particular bike despite all these red flags and just a super-uncooperative seller. Is there more you're not telling us? i.e. if the price is AMAZINGLYUNBELIEVABLE, that would certainly provide some important context to accompany all this seller...

    Interested in Bike 1.5 hrs away. Transport ideas?

    I'm not being sarcastic here: Why not ride it? 1.5 hrs even on the SS bikes isn't that bad... And the weather is often good enough now. $355 sounds like a lot of money...

    Head on collision @ Langstaff & Pine Valley

    I think CP24 said the rider was 50+ in age, if that helps. Sorry for lack of details/certainty, just saw it as it scrolled passed. Gws.

    Another parking information request: U of T Scarborough? Planning on spending a couple of hours there tomorrow. Does anyone know a free/safe place to park a motorcycle on or very near campus? Thanks in advance.

    Another rider down

    Thanks for the description of events, Vadim. I always want to know what happened when I see that and I'm kind of glad to know the KLR guy wasn't trying to fit in with the Cool Kids but very sad to hear they wiped him out. Personally, I've seen riders do that sort of thing a lot, and virtually...

    Stung by a Wasp...

    Had one hit the bottom of my helmet and deflect into the helmet with the face shield open just a crack. Pretty mu h a hole-in-one. Good thing it was so stunned from the impact it just cowered in the nose cover of my helmet and I didn't get stung. But I was riding cross eyed staring at it for a...

    2014 R6 Motorcycle Stolen

    Hi Nitis, I know exactly how you feel as my 13m old ZX-6R was stolen from my condo parking last year in a very similar situation, with my spot far from the entrances and likely lifted into a van as well. I only read the first page of the thread so I apologize if this has been suggested but I...

    Cycle World or Snow City for service?

    Snow City has been good for me in the past but I tried to schedule an appointment last month and they told me the next opening was 30 days later... So call them for availability first. Unless you're cool with leaving you bike for them to get to it when they get to it... (I'm guessing Kahuna...

    Parking near York University?

    Awesome, thank you very much! I heard about the Seneca Lane thing but Googling didn't mention anything about street parking so I thought something might have changed. I guess I'll just park wherever the other motos are on Seneca (in a non-dickish way) and hope for the best.

    Parking near York University?

    Anyone know of cheap/safe motorcycle parking near the York U campus? I don't see any Green P or street parking on searches but I'm hoping someone knows of a spot within a 10m walk or so where it won't get towed or stolen. I may need to park there a couple of times this summer for a few hours at...

    I, too, am very sorry for you and your family's loss. When the information becomes available to you and you feel ready to do so, I hope you return to this forum and share with us exactly what happened and your perspective on the matter. There are certainly many riders here, young and old, who...

    Riding to work office

    I always did dress clothes under textile overpants and jacket. I found my collars got a bit dirtier from riding though. I wore proper motorcycle boots and left a set of loafers at work. Worked well enough for me though changing out of the overpants was always a bit of a pain. Worth it to get...

    Erinmills and eglinton

    GWS. That looks terrible. I hope the rider or someone who knows him/her can let us know their status. That really does seem like one of those very rare accidents where literally nothing could be done by the rider to avoid it. Can't imagine the rider could see the Civic failing to stop or...
