Hi Everyone Question. Do you guys think it is okay to buy a used motorcycle right now, and keep it in storage, until I figure out insurance?

c-note - Good try, but my parents just moved to Alberta. I might need to talk about to them about the possibility of linking auto insurance with motorcycle insurance, but don't know what they think about it yet. motorskillet - Thanks! I am going to do some more phoning around next week with...

Thanks, I'll look into that. Problem with me is that I don't have a car to use, and my parents live far away. I was hoping to ride a motorcycle in the spring, summer, and fall, and use the TTC in the wintertime. But regardless, it still sucks that I can't ride for at least a year. Just hoping I...

Wow, that's huge. Yeah, I think I am going to wait at least one calendar year before I practice. Because that drop is exactly what I need lol

Hi Everyone, I really appreciate everyone's input. However, I have some unfortunate news. I got an insurance quote, based on a both a 125cc and 250cc motorcycle. They were both around $3200. I did not expect it to be that high. I think this is the case because I don't have much experience and...

Sorry about any confusion. I passed my M2 Test last weekend. However, I only got my M1 only a month ago, and I have to wait 60 days before I can submit my paperwork. So even if I did pass my M2 Test, I will still have to wait until Late July until I have a M2 officially. C-Note: I forgot about...

I recently posted a thread about getting into motorcycles because of the looks of a cruiser. Well, I had the opportunity to ride a cruiser-ish motorcycle at the Riders Training Institute recently (Suzuki TU250). I found that I did not like it as much as the street/sport motorcycles...

conundrum - Yeah, I was browsing a couple of sites about motorcycle accidents and that got me really worried. I dropped by Doc's yesterday, and exchanged my 3/4th helmet with a full helmet. I feel better now, lol.

gtamike - Thanks! I was actually looking to read something about motorcycling so thanks a lot for link. Yeah, I'm looking at other cruiser bikes too. I searched through the those models you've mentioned a couple a days ago while browsing other sites. About safety, the people at Doc's seemed...

My gloves are simple leather, the most basic gloves they sold. I think I saw what you said, but I stuck with my leather ones. Thanks!

Short stop - Yeah! I want to do the written test in the next few weeks or so. Then, I want to do riding school sometime next month. Thanks for that link! It is really helpful. I think if there is one thing I learned from this forum so far is that I don't really know much about motorcycles...

Great posts! Haha, okay, my end point is to ride a cruiser. I think I need to do more thinking in terms of the type of motorcycle I should start with, etc. I'm probably going to start off with a used sport bike. Then move on to a used cruiser. See how that feels. I was planning to study today...

Thanks so much for the great posts! This is exactly what I needed. There's lots of stuff I didn't even consider. Um. I think my end point is a definitely customized Harley. And that might not be sometime soon, unfortunately. I probably don't have the resources to support that, I never even...

Hi Everyone! I'm new to this site. I have decided to that I want have a Harley Iron 883. This is because the Iron is relatively affordable yet still good looking. This is my plan. I was wondering if someone could comment on it, tell me what I am doing wrong! 1) Riding Gear. I only know of...
