Yes, if it's been stored properly, there's no problem with the bike being on the sidelines for 6 years. But, you should take a mechanic or someone mechanically skilled to take a look.

LOL, it's fine to give ownership of an "unsafe" vehicle to your spouse;)

A friend has semi-relocated to North Bay and loves it up there. He still has some ties to the GTA because of aging parents and work, but prefers to make North Bay home and is maneuvering to make that happen.

Plates are not different for any of the M levels (M1, M2, or full M). For regular street motorcycles (not including diplomatic, dealer, manufacturer...), the only different plate is for limited speed motorcycles, which is a green plate and the bike identifies it as a limited speed motorcycle on...

Brian's route going on to PA from Fort Erie is much better than the first route going through Ohio. I travel along that stretch of Ohio often and the roads are quite mild (very gentle bends and elevation change, not too scenic). Northern Ohio is a bit better than the flat farmland in the west...

This is the reason why I don't stay on the bike while fueling up.

Yes, many (if not most) are modifiable to reach 70km/hr. The earlier ones were more likely to fry parts when modded to go that speed, but it sounds like the more current e-bikes have parts and electronics that can handle the increased power.

Seller doesn't need to be there when you've got all the paperwork signed and in order. On sketchy small bikes going on the highway, I once drove past a Honda PCX 150 two-upped on the 404.

Wait, these shoes I got ain't legit?

Unless it's a closeout from a well known online retailer, a price like that sounds too good to be true and I wouldn't take the gamble.

I had to LOL at this response to PP's post. But, in fairness to folks that are new to the thread, PrivatePilot is the original poster for this thread, and has had a Volt for a couple of years (and now has two).

Some CT will have a mechanic on staff who can do the safety (I had one done at the Markham and Sheppard CT years ago). You'd have to call and find out if they can do motorcycle safeties; OP you might be able to find one close-ish to home base.
