Tire tracks are important, lots of head movement, (especially before you are going into intersections), proper roadside stop, proper lane changing ( made me go back and forth from lane to lane a few times) checking mirrors every 5-7 seconds, checking blind spots when changing lanes and checking...

Did the test this morning and passed. Had a very nice person conducting a test. Only issue I had was hearing the bluetooth from time to time but that was it. Thank God, that's over, I am getting too old for tests lol

It is going to be a very challenging spring riding and that is IF we get a spring!

Thanks for the warning. I am sure they are big enough to send someone into another galaxy. There are a ton of roads in town that are in really, really bad shape because of our winter, that does not want to go away!

Try TD insurance http://www.tdinsurance.com/products-services/recreational-vehicle-insurance/motorcycle/rv-moto-index.jsp I have been hearing good things about them from a few people.

Welcome. I am from the Soo also.

Internet information will only get you so far. I did do a lot of research before I bought my bike but I did go to several dealerships to see what I liked best in person, and how it fit and how it handled for starters. Being a short person, even with online information I found some bikes...

It took me two visits to a dealership to decide on buying a bike. I had been outta the loop, so to speak for so long that it took me a long time to realize exactly what I wanted.I also had to ask a lot of questions to and look things over and make sure I was making the right decision. I could...

These shows, in my opinion, are for the people who are just there to kick tires and look around. If people are really serious about buying a bike I am sure the majority of them will go to the dealer. Yes there are a lot that go to shows with full intention of buying and want to look around at...

Love my 2012 M 50. I am short and it fits me perfectly. 800 cc for now and who knows, maybe the M90 one day.

I find that these people that think they are in the movie Fast and Furious with their crappy sounding exhausts and the same people with their huge mud bogging trucks waaaaaaaaaaaay more annoying...

I know this will sound silly but I had the same problem with carrying documents so I found a fairly small passport neck wallet and it is perfect for the job. They looks something like this, give or take...

I would try the Yamaha 250 cc Virago, or whatever it is called now. I am 5 foot 5 and I was comfortable in it for starters. I bought a 800 cc Boulevard M50 in the summer and am fairly comfortable in it. You can't always go by seat height which I found out this summer. There are many bikes with...

Went on a tour from Sault Ste Marie to a scenic route in the lower penninsula of Michigan along Lake Michigan called the Tunnel Of Trees. I would highly recommend it as it is beautiful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-119_%28Michigan_highway%29

You may have received such a response because of most of the time Timmies are inundated with SHEEP, aka Harley riders lol....

Welcome. I rode a Yamaha Virago 250 for a year so I could get used to riding again. It was a great bike! I recently bought a 2012 Suzuki Boulevard M50 in Newmarket and my old bike is still there for sale...

I have to say, I am enjoying it so much that when I get on my bike it feels like the first time and I can't wait till I ride again...

I've been reading this forum for a couple of years now and find it very interesting. I rode a bike in my teens and 30 years later I decided to give it a whirl again. I started small last year and bought a used Virago 250 and came down to Toronto a couple of months ago and bought a 2012 Suzuki...
