This whole situation will be swept under the proverbial rug. Bruer will eventually be promoted and retire as a cop with a big fat pension and benefit package. $70K a year pension for a Sgt (Team Leader) retiring with 35 years service. They take care of their own and being corrupt merely made him...

Statutory 3 years automatic jail for unathorized possession of a restricted firearm and ammo. If your range is not CFO approved for restricted firearms and you get caught shooting your handguns there the bust is very serious and WILL land you a criminal record and perhaps some time in stir FIRST...

Re: We know you ride, but do you Shoot? I hunt and shoot. I have a non-restricted Browning BLR take down rifle in 308 Winchester that disassembles without tools into the 1) stock & receiver, 2) forearm & barrel that fits into a compact blue carry bag and carries nicely to the deer hunting camp...

He's lucky he didn't get charged with "dangerous operation of a motor vehicle" under section 249 of the Criminal Code of Canada. Dangerous operation of motor vehicles, vessels and aircraft 249. (1) Every one commits an offence who operates (a) a motor vehicle in a manner that is dangerous to...

2007 Honda Shadow Spirit C2 750 I just pulled out of the shed last week and tuned up for the road after 7 years as a shed queen. It has less than 200 "honest" KMs on the odometer. Another older rider resuming the sport after a 30+ year hiatus.

The guy is actually a Nigerian prince who's father the king died and left him a $50 billion estate and he needs the money from the bike sale for legal fees to secure his inheritance.

The motorcycling community needs to be respectful of the community they live in and cultivate positive relationships with neighbours. Groups of bikers bombing past houses cranking the throttle handle at 5:00 am in the morning isn't going to do that. The image of bikers as uncaring, antisocial...

The private insurance companies are scammers and gougers and not into giving discounts indeed I found the opposite to be true because they'll pad your insurance bill if you don't watch them constantly. I have to go to war with my insurance company every second renewal or so for adding stuff to...

Re: Cool Story, Brah. Hmmmm ?? Yah, OK. :rolleyes:

Is bike insurance any cheaper in the provinces like BC and MB that have government operated vehicle insurance systems?

Don't regret starting with the KZ900. I was like a kid sitting in the captains chair of the space ship Enterprise for the first few days. I had the advantage back then of having started driving standard shift cars so the concepts of slip clutches and gearing were entrenched in my mind. Whether...

He wouldn't be lying. The bike was stolen. The victim just wouldn't be admitting his own stupidity in handing a stranger the keys to his motorcycle and letting him drive off without first securing payment. The cops won't do much except put the bikes description and particulars on the stolen...

Not in good ole hug-a-thug Canada. The cops might charge the victim if he threatened the thief but the thief will get a slap on the wrist if anything at all.

My first bike was a Kowasaki KZ900 (identical to the one in the picture). She almost got away on me once or twice while I was on the learning curve but I learned very quickly to twist that throttle handle cautiously.

I'd only let someone I knew very well test ride my bike and even then I'd be taking photos (with my iPhone) of his drivers license for ID and his address as well as to prove he is a licensed to drive motorcycle for insurance and liability reasons. He would need to bring his own helmet as he...

duplicate post - sorry

I think the actual compression ratio on my bike is 9.6:1 or thereabouts. Don't see why I'd need high test gas. I'll fill the tank with high test and run it for a while on high test before I put it in the shed for the winter but in the meantime she's running smooth on the regular 87 octane fuel...

My 2007 750 Honda Shadow Spirit C2 bike includes a weatherproof Garmin 660 ZUMO GPS (can be seen in photo just to the right of the left mirror) that will run in the pouring rain and is hooked in with the bikes wiring, passengers back rest & luggage carrier and a clear plexiglass bug shield. In...

Absolutely right.
