    Adjust insurance for Gear

    Isn't it like workers comp where the money comes from a separate pool? And it would be enforceble...if you showed up in hospital with no gear on then you're not entitled to the coverage, if you do then you're entitled. And the paramedics bring all your stuff with you to the hospital anyways...

    Adjust insurance for Gear

    So after reading another rating about squid thread I had a thought, insurance that adjusts for if you wear gear or not. if You want to wear all the gear all the time, you get a % off your insurance while if you don't then you pay full price. This reflects that you will have higher medical...

    Unsaftied vs Safetied: Use buying

    I always ask the seller (Car + Bike) to do the safety, and I'll throw in 100 bucks on top of the negotiated price, I'll pay for gas and their time. if they flat out refuse, I take that as less than confident that their vehicle will pass the safety. I know I am paying a bit more, but I feel...

    So I'm very suddenly looking for another bike...

    Just moved here from good ol' Ontario to Victoria. What's wrong with the FZ6R? Is there anything mechanically wrong with it? I'm not looking for the fastest bike out there at all, just something sporty, fun in the twisties, cheap to ride (insurance, maintenance, gas) and that looks half...

    Out of Province temporary permits

    I just did this from Ontario to BC, but I was licensed in Ontario. I got a 10 days special permit from Ontario after getting insurance that allowed me to drive the vehicle to BC. Crossed the border with it and everything with no issues. NB should have a similiar thing since the provinces...

    securing a jacket to the bike

    I use a curly bike lock wrapped around the rear grab bar, then when I need it, I use it and it's always there for me. And yet nothing constructive said...maybe he's going to pick up a friend and wants to carry a protective jacket for them too?

    Use cellphone instead of Scala or other BT

    I was thinking primarily rider to pax with bluetooth between their two phones. I think that class one devices have a range of appx 100m, so while it could work between bikes that isn't what I had envisioned. And I expect I'd end up having to write the code for it, just wondering if anyone has...

    Use cellphone instead of Scala or other BT

    So I was looking at communicators, and got the idea that since they sell the accessory kits pretty cheap I might be able to plug into my Samsung Galaxy S and see if that'd do the trick. I'm not sure if I'd need an app to get this to work or what would be required... If anyone has any thoughts...
