Can't speak about GP Bikes but I have owned a Triumph Daytona for 5 years (35,000 kms). No major issues with the bike or parts. Only problem was a faulty regulator/rectifier that was replaced free of charge even though the bike was out of warranty. I suspect that problem has been fixed with...

Just a few random thoughts based on the original situation and some comments made here. 1) Although you say the sales rep agreed to push back the pick up date, did the original contract include a final payment due date? If so the dealer may be within their rights to keep your deposit if you...

I have an Arai and it's fine for glasses. The way the padding is set up it appears they've designed it so that the frames can easily fit. I tried on a couple different models at this years Montreal show and I was able to wear my glasses with all of them. I tried a Schuberth helmet recently and...

CIBC? Nothing at all on their website about Motorcycle (or Auto) insurance. Quick google of the number shows it's Desjardins General Insurance.

Glad to hear. Was going to say the title of your thread is misleading... problem had NOTHING to do with Revzilla and everything to do with shipping. Should have titled it "Has anyone ever had any issues shipping merchandise back to a US retailer"... but whatever.

No, Run away....

Reading this thread and the other one on RFD has me shaking my head. Dude acts like he's the Paris Hilton of the GTA with a bunch of Ken Block wanna be clips posted. One fraud charge from 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0Hv2TQpNbs and an attempt at a fellow rider on here... and suddenly...

When getting your TD quote did you check to see if you qualify for any of their Affinity group rates? My old University was on the list and it dropped by almost half. And while SF was still competitive, it was only that way if I moved my cage/house to them too which I wasn't interested in...

I doubt anyone will be able to fully explain how State Farm's pricing model works (other than perhaps VifferFun if he chimes in). I've worked on pricing models for other products and they don't always make 100% sense when you look at the input compared to the quote. I'm assuming their model...

I am lucky enough to have a few cans of the older Dupont (in the blue can). Stuff is wonderful. Over 35K on my original chain/sprockets. As far as cleaning them I don't do it too often and have been OK with WD 40. I just spray a bit on an old rag and wipe. I really don't care if my chain...

You ask for comments and don't like them? No where in my response did I say you caused the damage. I simply stated that Paypal has shown time and time again that they side with the buyer whenever something arrives damaged. Hopefully you are more cordial in your dealings with the buyer...

As far as the buyer is concerned my understanding is that PayPal has their back, not yours. Buyers expect to receive the item in the condition you listed it and they too were not responsible for the damage. Unless you can work something out with them my guess is they will be told by PayPal to...

I went for $2 Million. Just because the minimum required is only $200K doesn't mean you should jump at it. For the sake of saving a few $ a year would you really want to be personally responsible for any claim exceeding the $200K. I'd go without collision insurance before I'd even think of...

While I agree with others it's best to pay cash, I'll try and answer your question. I've been in the finance business for years and loans are something that can be made to look good when in fact they aren't. Interest rate is only one piece of the puzzle. Many companies and businesses now...

I originally had the Super Corsa's on my Triumph Daytona. I'm not an aggressive rider and often ride in bad weather and have nothing but good things to say since switching to the Angel line. I first switched to the ST and got almost 20K out of them and found their cold and wet weather...

TD prorates the premium so you really aren't paying anything to have it insured now. I think they consider April 1 to October 31st as the riding dates (for cancellation/rebate purposes) but cover you for the full year. You just need to figure out if it's best to insure the new bike with...

I'm with TD and just got my renewal. Policy went up about $25 to $662/yr (full coverage including collision/comp/theft).

I think part of the answer will depend on the quality of each. I've seen Kevlar jeans that I wouldn't feel safe in falling off a bicycle let alone my motorcycle. I would say that a good quality Kevlar jean with additional padding in the knee/hip area would be better but have nothing to support...

To the OP, as long as you take care of it, any SS will last a long time. My 08 Triumph Daytona now has 35,000 kms and has been used for daily commuting and spirited runs on the back roads without a hitch. My only complaint is that the aggressive riding position doesn't work all that well in...

Re: TD MM gives a 2007-08 ZZR600 a "high performance" rating? Want $9000/year... When I was shopping for a bike I found there were a few bikes that didn't make any sense when it came to insurance quotes. Good for you that you are checking this out prior to making a purchase. Play around with...
