I have one better. I was out on my 899 TODAY. And yesterday, and.......... I missed out on some of early Jan and late Dec due to our crazy snow here in Vancouver but its awessssommmeee now.

Here in Vancouver there is widespread license plate parking via an App, and motorcycles get to use a discounted rate when doing so. There are also dedicated motorcycle spots that use the app, or a meter dedicated for those spots. Its a lesser issue in Vancouver because its much easier to find...

Im not sure what the point of that vid is.

I miss playing Phototag!!!! You guys are killing it this year with lots of new and interesting tags.

I have well over 100 days on tracks in cars. Mostly Mosport big track, ended up instructing there for a couple groups. Was super fun. Cost lots of dough. Made it through without having an accident and am very thankful for that because accidents are somewhat common. The DDT suggestions are good...

I commuted from the Beach to downtown for 2 years. Put on about 10k km in and around the GTA. I've since moved to Vancouver and only now do I realize how challenging riding downtown TO was. The above poster estimated close calls every second time on the bike. That sounds right to me. It's MUCH...

Waze isnt foolproof but it works fairly well for this in my experience. Its alerts also come thru my Sena, so this isnt needed.

Just have another guy contact him on the bike, pretend to be in a rush, ask him a few questions and see if there is still a lien on the bike. Itll probably disappear miraculously as he will assume that the rushed person wont get a UVIP.

I would get a supermoto. If you drop it, who cares, its meant for it. Youll learn how to ride better and faster on it. Plus, youll have a ton of fun! Cheap insurance!

Look up Jason (NOBLEGT3) on the Canadian section of Rennlist (Porsche Board). He tracks his factory - seems to know what he is doing.

Just came across this thread now! Clearly too late since you're already here but when I started reading this thread, I was thinking of meeting you a few hrs out from Vancouver and to join you for the stretch to the ferry. You absolutely killed this trip! You dont mess around. Inspiring, but...

OT, but I get a little bit better than that on my 899. Im averaging about mid 6L/100kms. According to the real time gauge, I should be able to get around 5L/100km on the highway if I ride it with that purpose. Im probably around 8L/100km around the city.

Take your time coming west - raining pretty hard and solid in Van today. I see where you are!!! https://www.google.ca/maps/@49.0129062,-119.4005053,3a,30.4y,319.11h,84.8t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sbSNNeXA2JorFs6qQuGjh-w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

it was the exact same for us when we drove across last year to our new home. Those mountains may as well have been heaven itself. For us, and for you, it's the last leg of the journey to a new home. Enjoy the mountains - tomorrow's ride will blow your mind. We stayed at Juniper in Banff for a...

Safe riding! Let me know if you need assistance (storage or anything) on the vancouver end once you arrive.

I moved from TO to Van last summer and we took our time driving across, exactly for the reason above - when will we ever get the chance to do it again. It was amazing. Aside from hitting some nasty prairie weather one day we loved it all. We we went over the top of superior and it was...

What about a KTM 690 SMC? They're around. Or a 690 Enduro convert? Or you could rule the world on an EXC conversion.

Why so quiet? I too am living vicariously though this thread having moved to Vancouver last year. Get out of bed taggers and get tagging!

All the best to you all for 2016. I really miss tagging since I moved out west! Ride safe!

my old hood!!!!!
