Hey guys, a friend is looking to upgrade to an M license and found this M2X course/test option on the RTI website that basically just omits the highway portion of the test, if you ride a 100-250cc motorcycle. No, this is not the ML ("limited") license, this is the full M. I thought a big...

Lost my steering stem cap last year (flew off the bike somehow). Ordered one of Zeta's steering stem caps from amazon.com (US) and lost that too. This time I'm going to glue it on. Anyway, good deal on the cap. $8.06 USD + free shipping to Canada (came to around $11 CAD all in). It's hard to...

"The Ontario government is reviewing the province's auto insurance system in a bid to lower rates for drivers. It says it will examine practices in other jurisdictions to find ways to make improvements and introduce more competition in the system." Election ploy or real ? What do you guys...

Just out of curiosity, anyone who has lived in California, did you have to take the written AND road test both when exchanging a Canadian driver's license? I did some research online. DMV's website says need to take both for anyone coming from outside the US. But reading people's responses on...

For the first time today, I decided to ride with earphones on (non-voice cancelling, earbuds that fit in ear), and had a horrible experience. Had music blasting at high volume, but couldn't hear anything on the highway, except for horrendous wind noise. To make matters worse, earbuds came lose...

Is it just me or are the number of regular riders in the GTA thinning rapidly ? Up-till last year, I used to see tons of riders on my commute to and from work, and a lot more on the weekends. This year seems terrible. I rarely see one or two bikes on the 404 when commuting, on weekdays. Same...
