    Motorcycle was hit by CRV in Markham. 2017-05-16. 14:40

    Here is a video of an accident I got into 2 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOyhf31u200 Based on damages to the cars, and the account of my story, the police officer said it was 100% completely her fault. I said, I have the video if you want to see it. He watched it. He said thats...

    Who rides too seldom due to fear of traffic ?

    Yep. When I first starting riding I would go out after 9pm. Fewer cars, cooler temperatures and less stop and go at traffic lights made my rides more enjoyable and the confidence to start riding in rush hour traffic. Go at your own pace, gradually ride in more traffic to build confidence. Life...

    2017 04 26 - Rider down in east-end

    My sister drove by the accident that night and warned me to think twice before getting my next motorcycle. It turns out Stuart is our neighbour. I've helped him jump start his car and drove him to Tim's in the winter. He offers to repay me by snowblowing our driveway after a big snowfall. I...

    What should my next bike be?

    I was more bothered by the wind noise and the vibrations on my ninja 650 than anything else. Ear plugs should help with noise. Vibrations would be present on any V-Twin. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

    What should my next bike be?

    My goal will be to get to fort Saint John as fast as possible, with a brief layover in Calgary to visit my brother. And then come back through the US as fast as possible. I want to stealth camp, but I think it's safer to find camp grounds along the way. I haven't looked into pricing for...

    What should my next bike be?

    The riding position? It had lowered handle bars. So I was leaned forward more.

    What should my next bike be?

    I owned my 2007 Ninja 650R for 3 years. I did routine maintenance like cleaning and lubing the chain, changing the oil and filter as well and replacing the battery. I've change the brake pads and rotors on my car before. During the 3 years of owning the Ninja, I seldom rode it to work because I...

    What should my next bike be?

    The seating position wasn't very comfortable either, the previous owner installed lowered handlebars, that made the riding position different. I loved the power of the 650. Handling was a bit difficult - I think due to my inexperience more than anything else. If I trek out to BC, I would...

    Yamaha R6 Highway crash in Toronto

    I'm sure cars behind me use to hate me when I did this, but when merging on the highway, I would go super slow for the first bit of the ramp so that there is lots of room in front of me, and then I would punch the throttle and merge when there was space

    What should my next bike be?

    I will be buying used. Unless I win the lottery... Um, those both look amazing! The handle bars were lowered. I had planned on returning it to stock, I just never had the courage to take on that job myself. Sounds good to me! I'll start researching a bit more. Depends on the price...

    What should my next bike be?

    The sport look isn't a must, but I would prefer it. Ideally, the bike would be black. Black goes with every colour! :) I will have to look into that! Thanks! Never heard of this one before. Will google it in a bit. I do not off-road, yet. There is a trail near my cottage, I'd love to hit...

    What should my next bike be?

    Gonna make this short and sweet for my A.D.D readers. -Had a Ninja 650R, loved it, although it felt a bit heavy when turning tight corners, more than enough power for me. -Seating position was a bit rougher on long rides to the cottage -Got into a car accident, got shaken up and needed money to...
