    State Farm Playing A Game, Please Chime In I Need EDUCATED Answers.

    Welcome to Ontario. The only province where insurers pretty much get free reign to basically charge consumers as much as they want.

    Did I just screw the pooch?

    Your bike should be fine. This year is the first time I've ever pulled my batter. Previous years I did the same thing as you. Though last year I went 2 months without starting it and the battery completely died. Hence the pull this year. Haven't put it on a tender yet, but I tested it last night...

    motorcycling

    6 or 7 months? I ride a good 8 months of the year and I don't even have proper cold weather gear. If you have a car and add the bike to the same policy, then the cost of insurance is actually quite reasonable. Unless you're young, then you're f--ked.

    VFR800F and CBR650F coming to Canada

    Liking the new VFR! I do have one big complaint though... what's the point in having the single side swing arm if you're going to block it with the exhaust?! Would have loved to have seen them keep the under tail. Great look and and one of my favorite things about the look of the 6th generation...

    How to Prevent Your Motorcycle From Being Stolen?

    HA downtown Toronto have a store or Carlaw, just south of Eastern. It opened a few weeks ago. They don't sell anything branded with the death head or hells angels name on it though. That's reserved for members only. It's just support gear. A sticker or a 81 shirt drapped over the bike might do...

    Hit & Run, found the guy!

    I don't mean to **** all over your plan, but the reality is that when it comes to money, most people cannot be trusted. Especially strangers. It's important that you be proactive in order to PROTECT yourself financially. It's okay to give people the benefit of the doubt at first. Sometimes they...

    Hit & Run, found the guy!

    a decent guy wouldn't have taken off an avoided you for a year. He had an opportinity to clear up it a year ago. He didn't. How much leaway can you extend to someone. Just sayin. I would also suggest contacting your insurance company if you haven't. Perhaps pose a hypothetical question to...

    Any Shoei/Arai helmets on sale?

    EBAY I purchased a brand new Shoei RF1000 for $240 about 5 years ago. This year I purchased a branch new Arai Vector 2 for only $300 inclusive of shipping. Not a solid color either which are typically less expensive. You just need to know what you are looking for an have patience. They do pop...

    Hit & Run, found the guy!

    Don't even bother trying to negotiate with the guy. If he took off and avoided your for a year, he's obviously not an honest person, and he's not interested in doing you any favors, nor should you be interested in doing him any. If you know who he is and where to find him, file a claim against...

    Riding local = safer

    Ignorance is bliss. Don't worry about what your buddy is doing or not doing. Go hit some fun twisties and leave him to ride in a straight line up and down Yonge Street.

    Lowsided

    did you exchange information with the driver that cut you off? did they stop? if not, did you get their plate? have you reported the accident? were there any witnesses? If you are deemed not at fault, insurance will waive your deductable and your rates shouldn't be affected. I would recommend...

    did you read the last couple of paragraphs? It's just a recomendation. They aren't charging yet. Still has to go to council. Lots of mention about this being considered due to illegal parking of motorcycles on sidewalks and boulavards. ie scooters.

    Anyone selling/have a Honda vfr800 2003 and newer?

    Fantastic bike! Love mine. It's a lot heavier than a sport bike, but very nimble considering.

    Anyone Going To Port Dover Friday 13th?

    If you've never been, IMO it's worth it just for the ride there. We left TO as a lone pair of bikes on the QEW. Along the way to began to encounter more and more. As we merged onto the 403, we were literally riding amongst a sea of hundreds upon hundreds of motorcycles. I've never seen anything...

    Anyone Going To Port Dover Friday 13th?

    I should also add, that if you are into scraggly looking old white dudes and weather old biker chicks, or are one, you would probably appreciate it more than I would.

    Anyone Going To Port Dover Friday 13th?

    My thoughts on my first Dover experience. The drive there amongst huge packs of hundreds of bikes was the coolest thing about it. Big eclectic groups including Harley's, Japanese cruisers, sport bikes with a sprinkling of Hells Angels. Port Dover itself was pretty lame. Just a bunch of venders...

    Buying a dropped bike...

    that bike wasn't dropped. Looks like it went down while in motion. A tip over while parked wont result rash so deep the paint is gone.

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    So whatr you're saying is... Airport and airplanes = high risk of terrorist attack and/or hijackings. Tim Horton's parking lot = high risk of terrorist attack and/or hijackings.

    Anyone Going To Port Dover Friday 13th?

    This will be my first time. I'm headed down with a group from TO, meeting some others on the way in Oakville, Hamilton and St. Catherines. I think I might be the only one in the crew not on a cruiser. :p
