    Beer store monopoly collapsing

    Are there people that drink less at a bar/restaurant due to price? I don't know any; if they want a beer, they buy it, and if it were half the price they wouldn't get 2. It's either a matter of them being able to drive home if they're having just one or two, or having as much as they can...

    Motorcyclist sought in collision that left young boy with life-threatening injuries

    From a quick google search, there is a "Darren Dawson" from Sault Ste Marie with 2 different charges (possession and drunk driving + accident) with ages that line up approximately with this dude. May be why he didn't have a license/insurance if they're the same person (and would line up with...

    Demo Days 2019

    Sounds like they wiped out on Burnhamthorpe (between Bronte and Tremaine). Road was pretty much like ice towards the shoulder (curved road, old pavement, cold sport tires). I took the S1000R out. BMW guys know how to run a good demo day (longer rides, not afraid to speed a little). My...

    Demo Days 2019

    Went by Budds' BMW in Oakville this morning. Sounds like they're pretty booked up and are running in the rain. I didn't see much that wasn't pre-booked. Asked about the S1000RR, and someone just dropped it as well -_-.

    Beer store monopoly collapsing

    The argument of government control equating to public safety is a bit flimsy (they do help control sales to underage folks better than most other stores would on average, I imagine) but the main benefit in Ontario when it comes to the LCBO is the decent jobs it creates and the amount of money...

    Demo Days 2019

    I never heard back from Budds' BMW regarding the BMW demo day. May swing by tomorrow and see what the situation is if work isn't too busy and the rain isn't too bad. They don't usually run them in the rain.

    Questions To Harley Riders

    My take: I understand the appeal of most HDs in the same way I understand the appeal of really most cruisers. They have a certain iconic style to them, and a brand that most other cruisers don't have. When people ask what you ride, and you say you have a Harley, they generally know what you've...

    Demo Days 2019

    Usually you have to fill out a form and either they or you add your driver's license info. I've seen someone drop a bike and they didn't have to pay for anything since it was just a minor scrape on the bars. I haven't seen worse. I have however had people almost rear-end me. I don't understand...

    TV shows currently watching

    Agree that Chernobyl seems good so far. Finished Episode 3. GoT final season was terrible. They basically got rid of everything that made it a special show (unpredictability, complex plots, solid character development, etc.) and replaced it with pretty predictable events, flat characters (Jon...

    Motorcycle vs Car vs Bicycle Commute

    I work from home, so basically only leave the house to shop and gym. If I need to shop, it's below 9 degrees or it's going to rain hard, I take the car. Otherwise I take the CBR. I have never ridden a bike to work, though it seems like it would be handy if it worked for me.

    Demo Days 2019

    Sounds like I'm going to have to fight for that Scout Bobber =S I'm surprised they haven't put up Harley demo days, they seem very popular. There are a few models I'd like to try. I ride sportbikes now, but have had my eye on getting a cruiser at some point for a while now.

    Demo Days 2019

    Cool! Which one, Barrie or Oakville? I'd be interested to try the Scout Bobber out. First come, first served I assume?

    Demo Days 2019

    Where did you see that posted? They don't have anything on their site. That said, it looks like the Barrie location is doing a BMW demo day today (which they also don't have on their site -_-)

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    From looking at 1000cc bikes, almost any of them could go in this thread. I'm sure most of the ads will be up next year again, the market is terrible for them with insurance being what it is.

    Which Bike to Buy?

    Hey Folks, I'm looking for some bike advice for what to buy next. I know a lot of what make the bike "the right bike" is personal, but I'd like to crowdsource some info anyways. Here are the bikes I'm deciding between: Yamaha FZ-09/MT-09 Yamaha FZ-10/MT-10 KTM Super Duke R 1290 Ducati Monster...

    Spring Motorcycle Show 2018

    Looks like this one is coming up in about a week. Anyone going? I missed the other shows earlier, so I was hoping this one might have some bike/gear deals, and not just a bunch of really "cool" biker vests/chains/shirts to buy. The site doesn't have info on what dealers are going or...

    WTB: Supernaked or R1

    Hey All, I'm looking to pick up some sort of naked/supernaked bike such as an S1000R, FZ-09, FZ-10, Monster 1200, Hypermotard, Super Duke R 1290, or Tuono. I'm also considering getting an R1 again (2012+). If you're thinking of selling, let me know what you've got! I'm a reasonable buyer and...
