    Best airbags of 2024

    How long ago was this? The In&Motion system was sold in Europe for a year or two before it came here, and RST retailers here (e.g. Moto World) weren't allowed to sell them. (Legal issues?) I think they are past this. Call Paul Attwood at Moto World.

    Best airbags of 2024

    Yes. You can either go the subscription route, or buy it out up front. But, I opted for the subscription - because that also maintains the warranty! The gizmo connects to the internet and updates itself when plugged in; supposedly they update / refine their control logic, although there's no...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Update. All of the originally planned bike projects are done, but a couple new minor things popped up, and one expected minor job just turned into a bigger nuisance. The horn on my ZX10R has been intermittent for a while. Last week it did absolutely nothing when I pressed the button. OK, time...

    Best airbags of 2024

    For this season I got a new set of RST leathers with the In&Motion airbag system. There's a few factors which the article doesn't really address: - Replaceable CO2 cartridge - Serviceable at the track (does not need to be sent to Italy or ??? for re-packing or inspection) - GPS/inertial trigger...

    Peel Police patrol the Highway also

    All police officers in Ontario are sworn to uphold the laws of Ontario. They "can" write a ticket anywhere. They usually don't ... but they can. Police officer would have to show up in court in the jurisdiction that serves wherever they write up a ticket, but for a Peel Region cop on a...

    Red light camera ticket for turning right

    There is no such thing as an "incomplete stop". That means you didn't stop. And the sensor thing sounds like BS. Ask for the evidence in disclosure. What is the sensor? Can you explain how it works? What type of records does it produce?

    Red light camera ticket for turning right

    Also, if there's video, bear in mind that you have to stop before the stop line. A stop past the stop line doesn't count as a stop. Not 100% on interpretation but this probably means having any part of your vehicle past the stop line. It's unlikely that the camera is positioned to allow this to...

    Red light camera ticket for turning right

    I had the understanding that they tossed out red-light-camera tickets for right turns pretty much automatically due to inability for the system to prove whether you stopped or not (due to having photos but no video). I'd file for 2 (early resolution) and see what happens. If they toss the...

    Your loooongest ride.

    Riding my own bike - Summer 1990. I took 5 weeks off and rode to BC then down the west coast to Los Angeles and back home through Utah and Colorado, along with a riding buddy who was a classmate in university (this trip was at the end of our last co-op work term before graduation). 19 000 km...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Fortunately, I only dealt with them second-hand. Had customers who put equipment into Fremont. Had customers who built parts for them (including your former employer). +1 on that assessment. And this was long before the Twitter and political shenanigans.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Normally if you're fiddling with shims, there's only going to be one or two choices that will get it within spec ... unless you have (and need) some of the 0.025mm-increment shims that come in bikes as original equipment but don't seem to be in anyone's shim kits! I removed one bolt and removed...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    You may want to look up how many brands Geely owns now. You'll recognize a few of them. Huge company.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Yeah that garage floor is waaaaayyyy cleaner and neater than mine. Very nice. FZR is ready for spring startup, just need to put fuel in it. ZX10R isn't getting winterised. It'll be ridden until the snow flies and resume being ridden when the snow clears. (If we get any snow. LOL) The beast is...

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    The oval? https://www.google.com/maps/@43.5174634,-79.6602871,544m/data=!3m1!1e3?authuser=0&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAyMC4xIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D Actually, I'm impressed. Zoom in on a half-decent monitor and you can still see where the pavement for the ends of the oval used to be. A friend's...

    Asshat GTA Motorcyclist Gets Caught Due to Social Media

    I am not on board with having drastic consequences to laws that are stupid ... like most of Caledon's new speed limits.

    But did the bumpers stay attached? (not on the list ...) :ROFLMAO:

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    There are A TON of clickbait BS articles floating around. "New batteries last forever." "New batteries charge in 5 minutes." "Say goodbye to EVs - such-and-such auto manufacturer has some wild new invention." The antics of the marketing departments of certain auto manufacturers don't exactly...

    Rising prices/labour

    I put in CR9EIA-9 spark plugs when I built this race bike in 2018 and I haven't touched them since. I've put 5000-ish km on it, almost all of which is way up there in the rev range ... I probably should change them at some point ...

    Rising prices/labour

    CR9EIX-9 and CR9EIA-9 both fit and work fine. (A is extended-tip, which doesn't make a discernible difference in this case)
