    Guess what bike this is?

    Front swingarm is crazy cool, gives it a floating look.

    Road rage

    This video is a good reminder of why it's better to be the bigger person and curb your anger to avoid a road rage incident while on a bike. You never know what the other guy is capable of. Apparently this was in Brazil, but pretty insane.

    Keanu Reeve's Motorcycle Collection

    For what it's worth, my wife used to work in Yorkville during Toronto Film Fest and would serve A-list celebrities regularly throughout the years. Keanu Reeves ordered dinner at the bar and he was super particular when placing his order (chicken and rice), arrogant and rude – no thank you or...

    First accident

    Also, if you do end up proceeding with the claim (if it's too late to cancel, which is still probably in your best interest), make sure you claim your gear you were wearing as well if it's been damaged (eg. helmet, gloves, pants, boots, etc). In my case I was wearing a backpack that got torn up...

    First accident

    Sometimes having a bike written off for insurance purposes is a good thing. When I was hit a few years ago the repair costs exceeded the value of the bike, so it was written off by the insurance company. I opted to buy the bike back from them from salvage (for $600), which they discounted off...

    NYPD cop tries a wheelie...

    Bike was likely stolen - rider ditched it when being chased. He was attempting to take it back to his precinct. What an inflated ego this guy must have had to think he could do it safely. New York City police officer tries — and fails — to ride dirt bike to precinct

    2019 Renewal - Increase? Allstate? Is this a joke?

    So I jumped the gun a bit. With so much shifting in my policy with new vehicles, etc. I got confused. Turns out my vehicle policy last year was $4,735 for the 4 vehicles. My current policy renewal is at $4944, so $200 more, not $500 as previously thought. The 2 bikes went up + one VW, but the...

    2019 Renewal - Increase? Allstate? Is this a joke?

    What a joke. My policy with 4 vehicles (2 VWs, a GSXR1000, and R1200GSA) just went up $500. My home insurance is up over $100. Combined, over $600 increase this year. Last year was a $400 increase (both bikes went up $200 each for no reason). That's a $1000 increase in 2 years with Allstate with...

    20 years ago.

    20 years ago I was a tall, gangly, awkward 15 year old about to turn 16. Riding my XT350 at the cottage and dreaming about getting my license and riding a street bike. 3 years later at 18 I'd get my first street bike, a brand new '02 CBR600F4i. I was in heaven. 12,000kms first year and then it...

    Tell Ontario you want better motorcycle insurance - the petition is live

    Looks like it's slowing a bit. Everyone that's already signed, be sure to at least double up by getting your spouse or significant other to sign up as well, they too are indirectly effected by this. If this ends up going somewhere (which is the best shot we've ver had so far), we will all end up...

    Yep, our post counts got messed up as well. I had thousands of posts before the crash. I'd imagine you had more than 291 as well LOL.

    Tell Ontario you want better motorcycle insurance - the petition is live

    Similar situation and my thoughts exactly. Here's what I filled out on the linked government website: "Regulate how much insurance companies can increase policy premiums without justification, and have them accountable and make it mandatory to disclose justification for an increase. Without...

    Tell Ontario you want better motorcycle insurance - the petition is live

    I love the recent comment on change.org that has someone complaining about their high insurance rates while using a pic of him doing a wheelie on a public street as his avatar. Please change your pic Paul, it's not a good look for us especially in this context.
