    Service Ontario - Bike Registration Question

    Really? Since when? My Hawks were 20+ years old when I got them. As mentioned above, one person at MTO told me I needed an appraisal but when I came back with one to the same location, a different persona said I didn't need it.

    Service Ontario - Bike Registration Question

    And if you buy a car and pay less than wholesale for it, it may be worth it to get an appraisal for the paid value, if the cost of the appraisal ($50) is less than the amount you will save. This is especially relevant for project cars.

    Bala restaurant recommendations

    I've passed through Bala lots of times but only ever stopped for food once at the Longhouse Grill on 38. I remember it being expensive for what it was, but at least the food wasn't bad. Any other recommendations, or is that as good as it gets at that price point? And not interested in packing a...

    Service Ontario - Bike Registration Question

    This is the way. And if they tell you an appraisal is required, go to another location or even another representative in the same office. When I bought my first Hawk, the Lawrence/Kennedy location told me I needed an appraisal because it was so old. So I got one and went back and the person I...

    Cardo Freecom 1+2+ helmet communicator

    Software updates for this model are just to fix bugs or add features. No surprise there are no more updates based on its age, which only means it will continue to function as it does now for as long as the battery is good. And when that goes, there's a thread here on how to replace it.

    Cheap vintage insurance

    Interesting - NFP told me my appraisal was only good for 3 years.

    2026 Weekly BurgeRR Meetup - Wednesdays @7pm

    I can't make it in time for the Thursday night ride, so I’ll see you at MotoSocial. Will also grab a burger from Rudy on the way but probably after you leave. May take it to go.

    Cheap vintage insurance

    I had no collision coverage with NFP/Echelon and they required an appraisal. However I did have comprehensive, which is an absolute must (for me). So which brokers offer it that you know of?

    Replacing a 2008 ST1300

    A friend of mine is thinking about replacing his ST after owning it since 2011. He no longer does long trips and multi-day rides that bike is designed for, and is looking for something much lighter and nimbler for local riding, but similar seating position, performance and reliability as well as...

    Cheap vintage insurance

    Their online quote won't allow you to enter a year older than 1991, so I'm guessing you called in? Or did you use a broker? Did they need you to get an appraisal?

    Hi! Just bought Awesome priced gear you should all know about!!!!!

    Do GIC's even keep up with inflation? If not, you're losing money, but still better than keeping it in cash.

    Can a motorcycle insurance classification be changed/fixed?

    Look into whether it was available to A2 riders in Europe and if there's a restricted map you could load if you're worried about too much power.

    Can a motorcycle insurance classification be changed/fixed?

    Doh! Well there you go, get the RS660 then. :) Seriously, with only a 20 lb weight difference, the 457 isn't going to be any nimbler or better handling than the 660 - all else equal. And it's not - the 660 should have better suspension. Power is all in your wrist, or ride in Commute mode.

    Riding Glasses

    There are motorcycle-specific glasses with rubber gaskets to keep the wind out, but they're meant for open face helmets. Assuming you ride with your modular closed, you can use any prescription glasses that fit in your helmet. Straight arms might help getting them on and off with the helmet...

    Can a motorcycle insurance classification be changed/fixed?

    I joked about doing this a while back but it's a hassle to change. Also, I've seen some questionnaires ask for sex at birth to get around it. Which begs the question, why are they allowing people to change their birth certificate...

    Can a motorcycle insurance classification be changed/fixed?

    Would be faster to get a better rate by just quoting from other insurers.
