    TD wants to chase away all customers

    $547 for a '08 zx-6r at TD Meloche (liability only). I have age (over 45), bundled discount (car and condo contents), alumni / group discount, no mods (stock ~100 hp is enough imo), GM license and no tickets. On my suggestion my buddy shopped his '07 R1 and got a 50% rate reduction at TD Meloche...

I'm familair with this as I sometimes jump off a thread so navigating the subscription / messaging process is familiar. Still not...

    gmail + voip phone - has anyone signed up recently - can't get it to work

    That may be it - I don't need yet another email address just to have gmail phone. I think it's another $10 for a local number. I have a system with a friend that is between London ON and Calgary. We text (free) and see if we can chat. She then calls me on MJ*. I really don't need a local number...

    gmail + voip phone - has anyone signed up recently - can't get it to work

    SB132 - if so you were fortunate as the google forum does mention this is not for cda and a suggested workaround was to create a ip mask to a US based carrier (you need to download a program - not sure how this works). If you have google phone via a cdn isp, my 2 cents is to not change anything...

    gmail + voip phone - has anyone signed up recently - can't get it to work

    Thanks Firestart. As the resident tech I thought you'd reply. I will keep it simple and not integrate this (if I can get this to even work) with Google Voice. The Google Voice Forum is full of people with problems doing this and Google does not offer support becuse it's a free service. Some...

    thx - good to know as I've sent a PM and email to you and didn't hear back as I'm having this problem although the setting are correct. It's been like this for quite a while - at least 4 months....

    write off!

    +1 - this is exactly what happened to a buddys '07 R1 last year. He got hit by a taxi (slow speed collision and taxi was 100% at fault). Not salvage, but the cost of new plastics and other parts like a tank (got scratched and a minor dent) etc. made it uneconomical to repair so he settled for...

    The REAL cost of owning a motorcycle…

    From a track noob – track day need not be too expensive when you start. You will have some one-time costs whether you do 1 or 100 track days. Depending on your street riding gear, how you get the bike and gear to the track etc…you will need for track (my track cost experience from memory)...

    Requiem for a Biker

    Yeah - right on. Same old same old....predictable comments. Or is that me? :confused: Dohhh - I can handle dissenting opinions. In fact, I don't mind it at all. I just don't see any need to flame, be cynical, sarcastic, belittle (all interchabgeable) others for it if you don't like what you...

    Requiem for a Biker

    Don't need to. I know what it means. Why don't you google 'belittle". In fact, I'll save you the time. Here it is: be·lit·tle(b-ltl) tr.v. be·lit·tled, be·lit·tling, be·lit·tles 1. To represent or speak of as contemptibly small or unimportant; disparage: a person who belittled our efforts...

    Requiem for a Biker

    ^^^I stopped visiting this board for a while due to the flaming and cynicism^^^......I guess some things don't change. I just started to look again due to a trackday I attended....and started looking around at the posts again. Thanks for the video. A good reminder how fast it can go wrong. Ride...

    TMP - Thursday, 22nd

    It was great to watch. I think Eden recently put down a 1:19 on his 125 so I use that as a yardstick of fast on a smaller bike and the track record is 1:12 or 1:13????? I've only been doing track as a weekend punter for 3 years (still a noob) but it was clear to me these guys were on a smoking...

    Post up PICS of members bikes?

    I just got tapatalk and selected no geotagging. I don't get it to tell the world where you are. If I want anyone to know I'd tell them. Maybe it's just me.

    TMP - Thursday, 22nd

    I saw some "racing" in the hotshoe group, and it was very entertaining (sorry, no idea who they all were). I saw one really good clean pass and the guy that was passed (around turn 9) in a good dual pitted and never came out again (maybe too many tears in his helmet and he couldn't see:p). I...
