    Bikers-Leathers?

    Hi all. I'm sorry if this might be in the wrong forum. I'm just wondering if anyone else is having problems with this site? I ordered some items on May 2, they told me one of the items was coming form the US. I waited a few days and then sent an email asking if I could substitute that item, as I...

    I have been cut off 3 times, road hours 5!

    Its not subjective. When someone forces themselves into a spot against your right of way you have been cut off. The rules are quite clear. It doesnt matter whether they signal or not, start to merge etc... If they compromise your right of way you have been cut off. And blocking position is not...

    Curb lanes

    I seached for "curb lane". Nothing came up dealing specifically with what I asked. I dont doubt its been covered, but I dont intend to read every thread in a general search query hoping for a hit in some post. Care to suggest some better search critera, or perhaps provide a link?

    Curb lanes

    I have two questions that I really should already know the answer to, but I dont. 1) Is it legal for me to ride in the curb lane when there are cars parked in it. Ie, where a car would not be able to fit, and where traffic tends to congregate in the left lane. Am I risking any sort of infration...

    Bicycle Lanes

    Ok, thats interesting thanks. I know that you posted the precise law above but humor me. Would it be a simple ticket (ie like speeding) or could it be considered more seriously, like dangerous driving? Thanks Rob.

    Bicycle Lanes

    I was wondering about this the other day. Traffic was back to back along Bloor just west of the bridge. I routinely see motorcycle riders losing patience and using the lane. I have been very tempted to myself, but havent. I can understand why people do it. In this city the lines are not very...

    Where and what was the closes call you've had that scared the crap out of you

    That sucks man. I had a guy last year in an escalade ( or something similar) almost run me off the road on the qew in a similar way. He was in the center lane an I was on his right. He decided he needed to take a last minute exit and I was in his way. Instead of slowing down to let me pass he...

    Association?

    Plus there are a a lot of people on this forum that refuse to admit anyone other than the rider can ever be at fault. If an airplane landed on somones head when they were riding people on this forum would blame him for not looking up. Even in that one thread where that rider in Scarborough...

    Actual Legal DB limits inontario?

    Re: Actual Legal DB limits in ontario? I agree that its obnoxious to have loud pipes. However, what angers me more are the "he appeared out of thin air" excuses that cagers give after they take one of us out. I keep my bike mostly stock, as thats always been good enough for me and I dont want...

    Angry Hornet = nearly crashed

    Some version of this has happened to me several times. When I went for my M test I had a fat lip because something decided to fly into my mouth while riding and sting me. It was the straw that broke the camels back about getting a full faced helmet. Also, just least week I had a wasp crawling...

    Streetcar Track Lowside

    Glad you're ok. I have almost gone down twice crossing streetcar tracks. Yes there are strategies (no throttle, cross at angle), but I'm never fully confident when crossing tracks. Some riders have never had a problem, but those of us who have know to treat them with a high degree of caution.

    Center island - parking?

    I've parked here before and the guy gave me half off. It was $20 and he let me park for $10. He had me park in a little area right by the booth, so my bike was in his sight at all times. It wasnt a normal spot so he probably just pocketed it as a bonus. At any rate, a lot of lots dont deal but...

    interesting kijiji scam?

    Paypal will screw you in a heartbeat if your a seller. A scam that got me a while back was I was selling something on Ebay, and the buyer paid me with what turned out to be a stolen paypal account (which is what appears to be going on here). I only agreed to send the item after the funds were...

    Fuel Injection light "ON"

    Hey thats great. I doubt the octane level in the gas is the issue. You should actually stick with whatever your manual says. Dont assume you are getting better performance based on a higher octane. In fact the reverse can be true. Search the forum there are tons of threads on this. I use 87 in...
