I just had new Road 6 GTs installed last week on my BMW and had similar experience on the 407 above 115km/hr. Returned to installer a couple of days later and had them checked but they don't see any problem, keep riding and they should get better. I have since put on about 700km and noticed some...

There were two gravel pits along the fifth concession just east of Brock road. One was originally owned by Highland Creek Sand and Gravel and the other just a bit further to the east was a multi-national sand and gravel company whose name escapes me at the moment. There was also an area on the...

I'm a bit late to the news but let me add congrats on a beautiful new ride and lots of adventure ahead .

Some BMW models have had this feature for a few years now. I agree it's very convenient but you may find there are some situations where it engages when you don't want it to such as over a spot where you can't get a foot down properly when stopping. I have mixed experiences with it and in fact...

I don't think I said I would never go to GP or that I would boycott them. I know that well established BMW dealers have a big investment in tools and diagnostics that are BMW specific that a new dealership may not have yet and I'm happy where I am. For example, last week I was at Maranello for a...

Thanks for sharing this as it helps me a lot. I live within 2km of GP and with the closing of Endras BMW, I've gone to Maranello for all my needs and been happy with their service. When I saw that GP had BMW I would've considered giving them a try but clearly now I'll stick with Maranello .

I ran out last week so I went to Royal and bought a can for $40+. Have always used it on my visor including pin lock. Read somewhere that other products and methods can affect optical quality. I've recently used muc-off on body panels with good results but found the ipone cleaner polisher at...

Interesting times for MotoGP that seems to be repeating history. Ducati for many years was the most powerful bike but unrideable for all but a few and even they struggled for a win. I think when Ducati made a seat position mod for Lorenzo and it changed their outcomes, it must have hit them to...

What a horrible situation for such a beautiful area.

Seems like your lithium battery or charging issue is fixed. I didn't see the resolution but interested as I'm looking at lithium for a battery replacement.

Marc has said he "rides to the limits. How can you find the limits if you don't find them and pass through them?"

There's been a big gap in BMW motorcycle presence east of TO since Endras closed a few years ago. It's nice to hear GP is going to fill that space. I've always had a good experience there.

Congratulations to Neda on a beautiful bike. I'm losing track now but seems to me you might need a bigger space for all that bike inventory 🤣

Congratulations EVO! Hate to lose you from the BMW fold but if we have to lose you after seeing that new Duc I fully understand. She's a beauty!

The young asian lady that applies the "numbing cream" to the entry point is there to distract you enough before you realize what's really about to happen

Couple of years ago I met a retired gentleman from GM who used to be a "dingman". One of a very few dingmen who performed those repairs at the Oshawa plant. Interesting guy to talk to and clearly highly skilled at what he did. I remember him saying that Subarus were the easiest to repair as they...

Got me good. Now I've got anxiety about April Fools!

I've got enough anxiety with the keyless fob already. This will put me over the edge.

Set some rules for yourself such as time of day, day of the week, where you ride etc. if you can until you gain more experience and confidence. Extreme caution near intersections and as much protective gear as you can afford or want. Anything you can do to mitigate risk. Then get out on those...

I've been retired and riding weekdays only for 17 years now as I found that weekend drivers were just too unpredictable for comfort. On weekdays, people are generally driving on a mission to somewhere so it's noticeably safer. However, in the last couple of years I've noticed traffic patterns...
