So I was riding home going up a two-lane street (one lane each direction, solid yellow line in the middle). I'm in blocking position, been keeping an eye out on the impatient lady driving her husband's shiny new Mercedes behind me, not that I've been riding below speed limit. Coming up to a stop...

Is it a helmet made out of shoes, or a helmet made to look like a shoe? So many questions.

Some helmets have a built-in tinted visor, with a little slider on the top of the helmet, so you can adjust it pretty easily while riding.

Saw a group of five bikes at the Leslie/16th eggsmart this morning. A blue and a black sport-touring ninjas and I didn't see what the other bikes were. Also, that was one damned nice Ducati jacket.

Ba-dum CHA! How about... a flash tank bongo mob?

Congrats!! I hope you two are very happy together :D

Hello and welcome!

Ouch. Yeah, last thing you want is for the steel cap getting bent and crushing your toes AND THEN GETTING STUCK THAT WAY.

I've only ever had my little 250, so I don't know how a bigger bike would handle. I do notice I get thrown around a lot when it's windy and I'm up at highway speeds (like this morning on the 401). I would assume a bigger, heavier bike would indeed be more stable in heavy crosswinds, but IMO...

He doesn't anymore. It's illegal. From an archived thread: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/archive/index.php/t-168128.html

It should be pretty cheap, <100. The bigger trouble would be hauling it back and forth as you can't ride it until it's registered and plated, and you can't do that until you get a safety (which only lasts 36 days). I believe people have mentioned that it's possible to get a temporary plate for...

I'll come by just to say hi! I need to be in Cabbagetown by 7 so I can't stick around but that intersection is on my way. :D I assume this is the one in the plaza with the Cora's? (And not the one at Leslie/16th that is within spitting distance).

If money isn't a big issue for you, maybe try buying one early next year? If you don't get insurance now, I think you won't be able to register it now either. Which means you'd have to haul it to a mechanic next year and get it safetied before you can register it under your name and plate it. I...

Find a buddy (or several), rotate being DD. :D Edit: (in your cage, obviously). I don't think I want a drunk person on the back of my bike no matter how good friends we are.

And that makes all the difference when my inseam is only 27". To get both feet touching the ground I'd look like a ballerina on pointe, never mind putting both feet down, lol. I still get a very solid stance on one foot, no worries of tipping over (yet, anyway).

Yep. AFAIK he won't find one, either. As I said before it would be really nice if the ministry would just clear this up and state that restrictions only apply to the relevant vehicle class. Until then, better safe than sorry. (Though you won't catch me behind the wheel with my helmet on. That's...

Source? There are already plenty of conflicting sources that say the restrictions do (see posts containing quotes from MTO website, people who asked their course instructors, etc). I am NOT saying that you are wrong; I just want to point out that without solid proof (give us a link), we can't...

I personally like my pre-gen 250, but that's because I'm super short and the pre-gens compared to the 2008+ are just that little bit shorter so I didn't have to get it lowered. But hey, 99.9% of people don't have that problem.

:notworthy:

I'm cool as a cucumber, but what did you expect when you went trolling?
