I can't say I agree with this at all, and see no difference between it and other vintage bikes. It seems you're OK with it because it doesn't affect you anymore. They are no less safe than all the vintage junk with dual drum brakes that are "street legal", and provided the pre-rule change...
Much cheaper many places around GTA and Kitchener-Waterloo. $220-$250 now. (bike dependent, rear drum brake models require disassembly for photos of brake shoes which is more labour) Wouldn't apply to R6.
I made a post about that a bit back. As of now it seems like no grandfathered blue plates are making it through the digital safety. Which is pretty unfortunate for all the fully street legal conversions pre rule change in 2010 whatever it is. Hopefully that is fixed.

There is a group, it just doesn't really get used as there is a 30,000 member group with a similar name "GTA Motorcycle Riders".
The "M2" chip Macbook Air is actually pretty reasonable as far as Macbooks go. It was on sale recently for $1089. M3 chip $1289.
Most people should probably just wait for the M4 Macbook Air though. It's pretty impressive.
Heard a couple times now motorcycles that are grandfathered blue plates back when off road motorcycles could be road legal converted, are being denied in the new digital safety program where photos of the bike including the VIN plate are being required during the submission process.
Hopefully...
Yep, and due to not having an intercooler, the intake air temps of a H2 are definitely high. As noted this makes it susceptible to pre-ignition, and gets around this problem by running a very low compression ratio in modern times (8.5:1). Back in the day before advanced tuning control existed...
Will be curious to see how they compare to the current. There was an aftermarket gear set available for the DRZ that a fair amount of people added over the years when adding power mods. It was expensive and required a bit of case modifications though.
In a time where almost every bike, street and dirt is six gears, I'm just surprised a newly designed motor as they claim stuck with 5. Yes the ratios could be set-up fine with 5 gears though. An extra also doesn't hurt, especially a overdrive 6th. I often find myself searching for a 6th cruising...
Why they would redesign the DRZ and keep it a 5 speed is beyond me. Also would have loved it to have got a bit of a cc bump to a 450 maybe to have another good street 450 SM option. Still going to be a good bike I'm sure, I've owned and heavily modded a ton of them by now so I'm a fan...
This is great advice, I always list cost of upgrades next to them. If its things people were wanting anyway like exhaust and bags, yours looks a whole lot better than one without it when they see the high prices if they were to buy after.
Probably the best sport touring tire out there besides maybe the Road 6's now. Currently have the 6's on mine and they are incredible but that comes at a hefty price.
