    So I got rear ended on the 401/400 south ramp :(

    Yes, keep us updated. Also, criminal negligence causing bodily damage? She deliberately ignored the law and acted in a way that she KNEW would put you in danger, twice. I hope they throw everything AND the kitchen sink at her, maybe it'll knock some sense into her obviously empty head. People...

    I screwed up!!! Let's admit our stupid Mistakes -New Riders mostly

    My first ride ever, we went out to see the Badlands and got lost trying to find them. Pulled over to the side to check the maps, I put the kickstand down and forgot to put it back up. The bf had already pulled away, so I sat there freaking out for about two minutes when I couldn't figure out why...

    Do you listen to music while riding?

    I'm a nerd, because I think it would be awesome to ride with the Zelda soundtrack going, pretending I'm feeding carrots to my bike.

    New pint-sized rider in Richmond Hill :)

    Mostly to/from work, leaving at 7am and back home around 4:30. After that it'll depend on how tired I am, you'd think I'd be used to the early mornings by now but nope lol! Lol yup. At Strathearn/Spadina, they had to install 8 extra-large stop signs that you can probably see from space. One...

    Speed limits

    Or most places in the States, interestingly enough. One time the bf was driving me home up the 404 super late at night (read: no traffic), there was some old geezer in a minivan turtling in the carpool lane doing about 40 km/h slower than everyone else. My personal pet peeve is people who...

    My bike gave up

    Update: Grabbed some gas while filling the car, put in enough to fill the tank about halfway. Turned it on, let it warm up for a few minutes. Seems to work mostly okay, hurray! I was going to ride it around the block to test it, but I live at the top of a hill and it's raining, and if something...

    Lots of Advice Needed for a New Rider

    How often are you traveling to Hamilton? If you're going there frequently year-round, consider that you'll only be able to ride it for part of the year, and then you'll have to store it for the winter. Plus you'll want to practice riding before going long distances, especially if it's in traffic...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Or if like me the back half of your office is a warehouse/machine shop and the supervisor also rides, get a scrap of 1/4" steel plate. Tucks nicely into the under-seat storage with the toolkit, no welding required.

    My bike gave up

    Yeah, I like to imagine that it's going "wheeeeeeee" very quietly.

    My bike gave up

    No tank bag. I'm not sure what you mean by pressure valve? The gas cap works fine, I think. It closes/locks no problem and I could hear a little whistling after I got to work/home, just because with the engine off it was quiet enough to hear it.

    My bike gave up

    Headlights/horn still work (the turn signal fuse blew on Sunday, need to replace it but brake lights work fine). I tried to hit the start button while it was still rolling, nothing. Tried it again once I got it up on the curb. It started after a few pushes and I thought I'd get it rolling but...

    My bike gave up

    Another question. If you run out of gas, and you try to push the starter button, will the engine still try to turn? After I rolled it onto the curb I tried starting it again but when I pushed on the button there wasn't any sound at all.

    My bike gave up

    Well I've only been riding for a week. It was fine last weekend. Monday no problems. Wednesday (the last time I rode) it stalled a few times on the way home like what happened this morning, but I figured it wasn't warmed up enough since it only happened the first few times I stopped. It was...
