All this talk of "same as 30 years ago" is just plain wrong. My first bike was SS (of that time). I only had ML license, not even G... No insurance company wanted my business, so I was told to go to facility... Through facility, I was essentially unlicensed teenager with a supersport - and my...

In my opinion, not the right group ("confederation"), reading the content there gives me different impression (right to wear colours etc). I believe we need all lobbying body working on behalf of all motorists of Ontario, not only motorcycle riders... There should be representation for sure...

Our system is beyond broken, and it keeps getting worse... Insurance is a scam in Ontario. There is no way we should be made to pay these rates.

By now I made it known that Ontario Automobile Insurance is my windmill. If you think this is bad, how can anyone swallow our ripoff insurance? I replaced many tires in my lifetime (so far) and all those fees don't add up to one month's worth of insurance.... Also enforced by government, also...

I'm just going to repeat what I said earlier in this post: "anyone profiting from insurance should declare so at the top of every post they write on the issue" :)

And I stand by what I've said. You don't have to take it from me: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-drive/news/the-problem-how-to-fix-ontarios-broken-insurance-system/article18024824/...

On inside knowledge. Losses are not the whole picture, profit and expenses are where so much of our money is going and they are masters of spinning the numbers... If you don't believe me, watch what is going to happen to "weather/flood/global warming" excuse in a short term and how it's going to...

I see that as probably best near-term approach. Also, insurance companies have perfected the game of creative book cooking... Their numbers cannot be taken at face value. Lobbying, public pressure, mobilizing masses... There is already enough evidence, thoroughly researched and published - and...

I would definitely put my energy into it. Just to be clear, when I speak of organization/association, I am thinking of a body presenting all motorists in Ontario (the sheep). Having motorcycle insurance numbers thrown into the debate will further illustrate how absurd the system is we are being...

Biggest scam currently running in this country is Ontario's (compulsory) Automobile Insurance Act... It is something you'd expect to see in third world countries that are run with 0 transparency and high corruption (cooking books, hiding profits...) It's a disgrace... Liberal, PC it doesn't...

I did it in 6 days last year, including one extra day that I basically just sat out the rain (major storm) Stayed mostly in hotels, only one camping night... Did it clock-wise (to be closer to the lake as I rode). My honest opinion is - totally doable in 5 days, and it will be a nice trip, but...

They have it worse in QC - cops there make a sport of being pricks to anyone on a bike. Good for these guys!

Had the same thing happen to me on Ridge road, by the waterfalls (blind sweeper). I was going through the sweeper and just as I reached apex, I see a kid in civic starting a u-turn at the end of the curve. I had nowhere to go and had to brake hard while in a nice lean... It was the stupidest...

Nice! :) That corner has is covered in scrapes and groves. I always assumed it was the snow plows, didn't even think limos. Good on ya Shark!

Croatia, actually. Comments on YT are gold :)

Seen bunch on Mods (as in mods vs rockers) along Lakeshore in Mississauga today. Looked like mods, unless there's some new movement I don't know about - All preppy, well dressed (tie, sport jacket), many on cafe racer type of a bike, some with side-car rigs... I don't know what it is but looks good!

Re: 2015-09-24 Perth County Line 33 & Road 111 just east of Stratford - Rider down That is awful - Best wishes to the rider.

Griff is definitely turbo - it is the pattern of ignoring posts where he is totally called out, presented with facts and logic, and just harping on his own agenda... Gets old really quickly...

Great find (for the price)! Looks like a complete knock-off of older Givi e460 (perhaps re-using their molds). If I switch to Canadian site, I can't find it... weird...
