Yes I sort of understand where you are coming from with regards to styling. For example I wanted to get a Lexus hybrid. But that ****** looking front grill just turned me away. The RAV 4was surprisingly half decent looking. The new style is a lot better than the previous model to me. The...

Following up on those that were asking about the RAV 4 Hybrid. It's an excellent vehicle. I have the XSE trim. Good performance for an SUV. Great gas mileage. I'm averaging 7.2 l per 100 km. But I'm an aggressive driver and do alot highway driving. The RAV 4 Hybrids did have a few issues that...

Recently 6 months ago purchased RAV 4 Hybrid from Mississauga Toyota .. Was able to get some off list price. I contacted numerous Toyota Dealers . They were the only ones willing to negotiate. Dave Kulmen Was the sales rep I dealt with.

I'm not really sure . They look like mishmash of exotic cars and some bikes. Can't tell if they have any sort of service. As the main point of this board. I see huge void for some one to step in an open up a multi brand dealer. If GP Bikes can sell Honda, Ducati , Triumph, KTM. Surely the...

I suppose I have a different view. The only Ducati dealer in Toronto no longer sells or services Ducati's. So only choice for warranty work is GP or Ducati of Oakville. I think this would be a good opportunity for a new dealer that would sell all the Italian brands.. MV Agusta, Aprillia ...

Just a question regarding how lap times are registered for qualifying. My understanding is that the lap time starts as soon as you cross the start line. If so , wouldn't the speed that you cross that line affect your first sector time? Since the time difference for someone who goes to Q1 can be...

My last car was a 2011 VW Golf 2.5. It was last of the Golfs that were made in Germany . Not sure if that matters much. But I had almost 300,000 kms on it when I traded it in. For the most part the car was extremely reliable. Just basic maintenance over the years. No surprises until just before...

Maranello not only left . They moved to a sole source BMW dealer and service. I called and confirmed , they no longer service the Ducati bikes they sold only a few months ago. It's only a matter of time the BMW side will also disappear seeing that they are working out of a car dealership area...

Yea if i had to go out to Durham. I may as well just go to GP Bikes.

Thanks for the reviews so far. It's difficult to judge from Google reviews only. Hard to know which are real and which are made up. Plus when I only see positive reviews I really have to wonder. Too bad the experiences so far are not as positive as I would of hoped. I'm trying to find a...

Just wondering if anyone has had their bikes serviced at Dukes of Cycle in Etobicoke recently. I did a quick search on various threads and for the most part they seem positive. Reason I'm asking is that I just found out that Maranello Motor Sport is moving and will no longer support or sell...

I have a similar discussion going on the Motogp board. Bottom line as Brian noted above... not much different than the Repsol sponsorship of Honda and MM93 in the end. Repsol has deep dealings with Saudi oil and gas. Not sure why everyone is making the connection with VR46 and the Saudi Govt...

Prillar... I agree with what you noted regarding the Saudi connection and what they stand for... But in essence the potential VR46 connection is no different than Honda .. Repsol... Repsol has a huge connection with Saudi Arabia gas and oil. So using that logic we shouldn't support Honda in...

I'm having a difficult time understanding what the moral issue is here. IF VR46 wants to run a team in Motogp and get sponsored from a Saudi Prince how is that any different than say Honda with the Repsol sponsorship? I'm sure if you dig deep enough in all the current team's you will find...

My first bike was a Kawasaki Ninja 250R . For me it was good first all around bike. For your size and weight . Maybe a 300 c.c. to 400 cc bike like the more recent Ninjas . Or anything similar such as Honda CB 300r, Yamaha R3 ... This range of bike are great bikes all around not necessarily...

I'm one of those that was never a MM 93 fan. But I for one am glad to see him back. I agree after watching him race and having much respect for all he has gone through. It was weird. I was hoping to see him finish in the top 3. But finishing where he did is remarkable also. I always wondered how...

My second bike was used. It was 2 years old and only had 170 km on it. It was like buying a new bike with $4000 off. Original owner rode only twice. Then decided riding wasn't for him.

I've never had the opportunity to meet Jamie. But he did help me out on This site with some technical issues I was having. So I will say that the impression I had from my few dealings with him are that he's the type of person that wouldn't hesitate to help a complete stranger. He was very...

I can confirm that Toyota has a different approach to the GDI carbon build up issues other manufacturers are having. I own a 2020 RAV Hybrid with the 2.5 l 4 cylinder engine. That engine has both GDI direct injection and an additional injector prior to the intake valve (regular port injection)...

I first used the online live operator when I had to renew. They are worse than on phone person. Their offers seem really bad. Rogers is sneaky when it comes time to billing. Now that we are all electronic billing . They always seem to try and charge more than what was agreed on in the live...
